Absolute value of 36 is 36; Wo, we have:
A. Frank has 24 marbles. I found this because Dan has 15 and total is 63 so subtract 63-15= 48. 48 divided by 2 people, which are Ellie ans Dan is 24. Dan has 24 marbles.
Answer:
10 and 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the first number.
Let y be the second number.
x + y = 2x - 6
x - y = 4y - 10
x = 4y - 10 + y
x = 5y - 10
(5y - 10) + y = 2(5y - 10) - 6
6y - 10 = 10y - 20 - 6
6y - 10 = 10y - 26
6y - 10y = -26 + 10
-4y = -16
y = 4
x - (4) = 4(4) - 10
x - 4 = 16 - 10
x - 4 = 6
x = 6 + 4
x = 10
Answer:
91
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the smallest one:
● x is the first number
● x+1 is the second number
● x+2 is the third number
The sum of these numbers is 276
● x+(x+1)+(x+2) =276
● x+x+1+x+2 = 276
● 3x + 3 = 276
Substract 3 from both sides:
● 3x+3-3 = 276-3
● 3x = 273
Divide both sides by 3
● (3x)/3 = 273/3
● x = 91
So the smallest one is 91
To answer this item, we let x be the measure of angle Y. If we say supplement, it is understood that when we sum up the measures of the two angles (angle Y and its supplement) the answer should be 180. Therefore the other angle is 180-x. Going back to the condition given in this item, we will be able to generate an equation,
x = 3(180 - x)
The value of x from the equation is 135. Thus, m∠Y is 135°.
