Answer:

x = 14 and 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Make an equation where x is the number.

2x - 15 = 7 + 1/2x

Then, solve the equation.

multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction

4x - 30 = 14 + x

subtract x from both sides

3x - 30 = 14

add 30 to both sides

3x = 44

divide both sides by 3

x = 14 and 2/3

6. Regroup the numbers in the following problems, putting the numbers that add up to 10 or a multiple of 10 in parentheses.
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

a) (2+8)+9

b) (3+7)+5+4

c) (4+16)+2

d) (31+9)+4

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 2+9+8

2 and 8 add up to 10, so we regroup them in parentheses

(2+8)+9


b) 3 + 5 + 4 + 7

3 and 7 add up to 10, so we regroup them in parentheses

(3+7)+5+4


c) 4 + 2 + 16

4 and 16 add up to 20 which is a multiple of 10, so we regroup them in parentheses

(4+16)+2


d) 31 + 4 + 9

31 and 9 add up to 40 which is a multiple of 10, so we regroup them in parentheses

(31+9)+4

Find the scale factor of ABC to MNO.
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor can be obtained by simply finding the ratio of the lenght of the side of one shape to the length of the same side of the other shape.

Thus, we can obtain the scale factor that will take us from △ABC to △MNO as illustrated below:

Original Length BC = 15 in

New Length NO = 18 in

Scale factor =?

Scale factor = New lenght NO / Original length BC

Scale factor = 18 / 15

Scale factor = 6/5

Therefore, the scale factor that will take us from △ABC to △MNO is 6/5.
