Answer:

Bert has $45.

Step-by-step explanation:

I have no real strategy, except for that I used guess and check. How did I do this? Well, since I am in 5th Grade, I don't know algebra very well, so I made an organized chart and checked all the numbers that had to be a multiple and  could be divided equally by 5, 3 and when a third of that number was subtracted by 6, it was a fifth of the orginal number. Thats how I got 45.

Checking this answer:

It is always important to check your answer after finishing the problem, so this is how I checked my answer:

1. 45 divided by 3 = 15

2. 15 - 6 = 9, and 9 is 1/5 of 45

Bert has $45.

Please help Slove for x
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

These angles are consecutive interior angles, so when added they will equal 180 degrees (according to the consecutive interior angles theorem).

3x - 10 + 5x + 30 = 180          add/subtract all like terms

8x + 20 = 180

8x = 160

x = 20  <--- This will be your answer

Hope it helps!
