X/(9+11)=4 bc x is the “number” and “9, and 11” means add them together. Put the in parenthesis
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a proportion to find out the number of teachers that are needed.
3/70 = x/14,700
70x = 3 * 14,700
70x = 44,100
x = 630
630 teachers are needed altogether. Since there are already 612 teachers, the number of more teachers who are needed is the difference between 630 and 612.
630 - 612 = 18
Answer: 18
5 noble fir and 3 douglas fir = $ 420
12 noble fir and 9 douglas fir = $ 1080
Let noble fir be n, and douglas fir be d.
5n + 3d = 420 ..............(i)
12n + 9d = 1080 ...............(ii)
Multiply equation (i) by 3.
3*(5n + 3d) = 3*(420)
15n + 9d = 1260 .............(iii)
Equation (ii) minus (iii)
(12n + 9d) - (15n + 9d) = 1080 - 1260
12n - 15n + 9d - 9d = -180
-3n = -180
n = -180/-3 = 60
Substitute the value of n in (i) 5n + 3d = 420
5*(60) + 3d = 420
300 + 3d = 420
3d = 420 - 300 = 120
3d = 120
d = 120/3 = 40
Therefore Noble fir tree cost $60 while Douglas fir tree cost $40
For every 1/4 metric ton it takes 1/8 hours
then multipling by 8 to make the hours =1
for every 2 metric tons it take 1 hour
so the quotient is 2 metric tons per 1 hour
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(x-3)=-25
Divide each side by -5
-5/-5(x-3)=-25/-5
x-3 = 5
Add 3 to each side
x-3+3 = 5+3
x = 8
