5 0

Answer:

X = 8.3 (shortened)

<u>Steps for answer!</u>

1. Subtract 2.5x from both sides.

1.5=4x-11-2.5x

2. Simplify  4x-11-2.5 to  1.5x-11

1.5=1.5x-11

3. Add 11 to both sides.

1.5+11=1.5x

4. Simplify  1.5+11 to 12.5.

12.5=1.5x

5. Divide both sides by 1.5.

12.5/1.5=x

6. Simplify  12.5/1.5 to  8.3333338.333333.

8.333333=x

7. Switch sides.

x=8.333333

The length of a rectangle is five inches less than twice it’s width. If the rectangle has a perimeter of 80 inches, find the len
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Width of the rectangle  = 15 inches

Length of the rectangle  = 25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle =  k inches

So, the length of the rectangle =   (2k -5) inches

Perimeter = 80 in

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (Length + Width)

⇒  80 = 2(k + (2k -5)

or 80 = 6k - 10

⇒ 6k = 80 + 10 = 90

or  k = 90 / 6

⇒ k = 15

So the width of the rectangle  = k  = 15 inches

And the length of the rectangle =  2k -5 = 2 x 25  - 5 = 25 inches

Find four consecutive whole numbers whose sum is 74​
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

17, 18, 19, 20

Explanation:

Let the numbers be x, x + 1, x + 2, x + 3

Their sum is equals to 74

x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 74     (group the variables)

x + x + x + x + 1 + 2 + 3 = 74    (simplify)

4(x) + 6 = 74                             (subtract both sides by 6)

4x = 68                                     (divide both sides by 4)

x = 17

Other numbers:

x + 1 = 17 + 1 = 18

x + 2 = 17 + 2 = 19

x + 3 = 17 + 3 = 20
