Answer:
36 erasers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of erasers be e
let number of rulers be r
We can write:
e + r = 70
and
After giving away, he has
Erasers: 2/3e
Rulers: r - 10
These two are equal, so we can write and solve:
2/3e = r - 10
2/3e + 10 = r
Putting this in initial equation, we have:
e + (2/3e + 10) = 70
5/3e + 10 = 70
5/3 e = 60
e = 36
And rulers is:
r = 2/3(36) + 10 = 34
Hence, he had 36 erasers in the beginning
2/15
4/5-2/3
convert so they have the same denominator
12/15-10/15
solve
2/15
Answer:
4.12
Step-by-step explanation:
A^2+b^2=c^2 so 8^2+b^2=9^2 so 64+b^2=81 so b^2=17 so b=4.12
2X-3 = -3/4x -1/4
Add 3 on both sides: 2X = -3/4x + 2.75
Add -3/4x on both sides: 2.75X = 2.75
Divide 2.75 on both sides: x= 1
hope this helped
We can get rid of the parentheses so it looks like this:
3x + 24x + 8.
Simplify:
27x + 8
