<span>x + y = 0 hope this helps </span>
Amy: x skirts
Betty: 2x skirts
Carol: (2x) + 7 skirts
If Amy has 18 less than Carol, than Carol's equation minus 18 equals Amy's equation:
[(2x) + 7] - 18 = x
+18 +18
(2x) + 7 = x + 18
- 7 -7
2x = x + 11
-x -x
x = 11
Input the solution for x into the girls equation to double check.
Amy: 11
Betty: 2(x)
2(11)
=22
Carol: (2x) + 7
22 + 7
=29
Does Amy have 18 less than Carol?
Carol - Amy = 18
29 - 11 = 18
18 = 18
the problem is solved
Answer:
Red : 5/12
Blue : 1/3
Green: 1/6
Yellow : 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
5 red marbles + 4 blue marbles + 2 green marbles + 1 yellow marble = 12 total marbles
5 red marbles / 12 total marbles = 5/12
4 blue marbles / 12 total marbles = 4/12 = 1/3
2 green marbles / 12 total marbles = 2/12 = 1/6
1 yellow marbles / 12 total marbles = 1/12
The first one simplifies by collecting like terms to become:
7a²(4b²+9ab+10)
and the second one simplifies again by collecting like terms to become:
7u(16u²-49v²)
