I think it's 7 1/2 because you can turn 30 1/4 to 15/2, which simplifies to 7 1/2
What do you mean by that i mean yeah you can have as many as needed to subtract
Answer: Choice A. (8, 4)
==========================================================
Explanation:
Because x = 2y, we can replace every copy of x with 2y
Let's do so in the second equation
3x - 4y = 8
3(x) - 4y = 8
3(2y) - 4y = 8 .... x replaced with 2y; now let's isolate y
6y - 4y = 8
2y = 8
y = 8/2 ..... divide both sides by 2
y = 4
Use this y value to find x
x = 2y
x = 2*4
x = 8
So we have x = 8 and y = 4 pair together to get the answer (x,y) = (8, 4) which is choice A.
When the base and the height of a triangle are the same. the hypotenuse is that number times sqrt2.
B and C are 7, so a would also be 7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Three times a number x : 3x
Three times a number x increase by 4: 3x +4
Five times the number x: 5x
5x = 3x +4
Subtract 3x from both the sides.
5x - 3x = 3x +4 - 3x
2x = 4
Divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 4/2
x=2
The number is 2
