Simply divide both sides by 2/3 to get x by itself.
= 10 ÷ 2/3
Keep, change, flip!
= 10 × 3/2
= 30 / 2
= 15
So, x = 15.
Answer:
3. 35 adults and 420 children
4. The three numbers are 13, 52 and 16
Step-by-step explanation:
3. Let the number of adults be x.
Since there are 12 times more children than adults,
number of children= 12x
Total number of people= 12x +x
13x= 455
x= 455 ÷13
x= 35
12x= 35(12)
12x= 420
Therefore, there are 35 adults and 420 children at the play.
4. Let the first number be x.
Since the 2nd number is 4 times the first,
2nd number= 4x
Third number is 3 more than the first:
3rd number= x+3
sum of numbers= x +4x +x+3
6x +3= 81 (simplify)
6x= 81 -3 (bring constant to 1 side)
6x= 78 (simplify)
x= 78 ÷6
x= 13
Second number
= 4x
= 4(13) (subst. x=13)
= 52 (expand)
third number
= x +3
= 13 +3 (subst. x=13)
= 16
Answer:
1.04
Step-by-step explanation:
"Complete the following sentence about the yearly rate of change in the amount of money in the account. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Every year, the amount of money in the account increases by a factor of _."
Mdecade(t) = 4900 (1.5)^t, where t is in decades.
One year is 0.1 decades, so M increases by a factor of:
1.5^0.1 = 1.04
Answer:
13/10 5/3 40-78 C A
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression is 14x + 4. it’s a rectangle, so the opposite sides are congruent and they have the same value.
