Answer:
x = 39
y = 129
Step-by-step explanation:
to find x you do
x +51 = 90
subtract 51 from both sides
x = 39
to find y
we already know part of y is a right angle (90 degrees)
so we need to find the tiny other part
this tiny other part is equal to x
so
90 +39 = 129
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a + c = 92.....c = 92 - a
8a + 5c = 688
8a + 5(92 - a) = 688
8a + 460 - 5a = 688
3a = 688 - 460
3a = 228
a= 228/3
a = 76 <==== adults
a + c = 92
76 + c = 92
c = 92 - 76
c = 16 <=== children
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify signs
3x + 7 = -2
Step 2: Subtract 7 on both sides
3x = -9
Step 3: Divide both sides by 3
x = -3
I would first add 5 and 2 together, then multiply that by 3. Finally you would subtract the 1. After solving for what is inside the parentheses you would multiply it by 2 for your final answer.

Answer:
2 1/7 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
A factory makes rectangular sheets of cardboard, each with an area 2 1/2 square feet. Each sheet of cardboard can be cut into smaller pieces of cardboard measuring 1 1/6 square feet. How many smaller pieces of cardboard does each sheet of cardboard provide?
Each sheet of cardboard = 2 1/2 square feet
Each smaller pieces of cardboard = 1 1/6 square feet
Number of smaller pieces of cardboard per sheet of cardboard = Each sheet of cardboard ÷
Each smaller pieces of cardboard
= 2 1/2 square feet ÷ 1 1/6 square feet
= 5/2 ÷ 7/6
= 5/2 × 6/7
= (5*6) / (2*7)
= 30/14
= 15/7
= 2 1/7 pieces
Number of smaller pieces of cardboard per sheet of cardboard = 2 1/7 pieces
