Answer:
5 feet of wall should be on each side of the painting.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a 3 foot wide painting should be centered on 13 foot wide wall, to determine how many feet should be on each side of the painting, the following calculations must be performed:
(13 - 3) / 2 = X
10/2 = X
5 = X
Therefore, 5 feet of wall should be on each side of the painting.
Sorry for not giving you the calculation here -
5/12 and 2/9 have denominators divisible by only 3 right? Well The common denominator that can then change is 3 because that's the only number they have in common (except 1)
When x=2 y = 110 which means when when x=1 y = 55
the graph would be 11*55 or 605
The table would be 280/4= 70 70*11=770
Which means the difference is 770-605=165
165 is ur answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Eliminate parentheses:
0.1x +18.8 = -4 +2x
22.8 = 1.9x . . . . . . . . . add 4 - 0.1x
12 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 1.9

2) Eliminate parentheses:
-16 +4x = 0.8x +12.8
3.2x = 28.8 . . . . . . . . add 16 - 0.8x
x = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 3.2

<em>Comments on the solutions</em>
The expression we add in each case eliminates the constant on one side of the equation and the variable term on the other side. That leaves an equation of the form ...
variable term = constant
We choose to eliminate the smaller variable term (the one with the coefficient farthest to the left on the number line). Then the constant we eliminate is the on on the other side of the equation. This choice ensures that the remaining variable term has a positive coefficient, tending to reduce errors.

You can work these problems by methods that eliminate fractions. Here, the fractions are decimal values, so are not that difficult to deal with. In any event, it is good to be able to work with numbers in any form: fractions, decimals, integers. It can save some steps.
