Answer:
X = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We move all terms to the left:
<em>x+8+2x-(2x+13)=0</em>
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables:
<em>3x-(2x+13)+8=0</em>
We get rid of parentheses:
<em>3x-2x-13+8=0</em>
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables:
<em>x-5=0</em>
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right:
<em>x=5</em>
Answer:
There were 84 students in 6th grade, 68 in 7th grade, and 90 in 8th grade.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Elk middle school has 264 students, and there are 84 students in the eighth grade, and there are 22 fewer seventh-grade students than sixth-grade students, to determine how many students there are in each grade, the following calculation must be performed:
(264 - 84) / 2) - 22 = X
(180/2) - 22 = X
90 - 22 = X
68 = X
6th grade = 84
7th grade = 68
8th grade = 90
Therefore, there were 84 students in 6th grade, 68 in 7th grade, and 90 in 8th grade.
Answer: (4) 14
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 2y if x is 3 and y is 5
8x = 24
2y = 10
24 - 10 = 14
So 8x - 2y is 14.
I think it is 64 cause i multiplied
