Answer:

24 - X = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mai's water bottle had 24 ounces in it. After she drank x ounces of water, there were 10 ounces left, in order to determine the equation that represents this situation, the following reasoning has to be made:

Since the bottle has 24 ounces of liquid, that is its initial content, from which an amount X is subtracted, after which 10 ounces of water remain. That is, 24 - X = 10.

Thus, this equation is solved in the following way:

24 - X = 10

24 = 10 + X

24 - 10 = X

14 = X

13 Solve the inequality n+7<5n-8

Papessa [141]

Answer:

3.75 < n

Step-by-step explanation:

n + 7 < 5n - 8

Add 8 to both sides

n + 7 + 8 < 5n

n + 15 < 5n

Subtract 'n' from both sides

15 < 5n - n

15 < 4n

Divide both sides by 4

$\frac{15}{4}$ < n

3.75 < n

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

1900

Step-by-step explanation:

1 kg = 1000g

1.2kg = x

1 kgx = 1200 kg.g

1kg. 1kg

x = 1200 g

1 decagram = 10g

40 decagram = x

1 dg.x = 400 dg.g

1 dg. 1 dg

x = 400g

so the total= 1200g +300 + 400g=1900g

without the unit = 1900
