answer:
the number is one
work:
let's analyze the question.
15 times a number is..
so, right away we have 15n.
.... decreased by eight...
we are subtracting 8, so 15n - 8
...the result is 17.
so, 15n - 8 will equal 17.
Find the number.
now, we solve for n.
15n - 8 = 17 (add 8 to both sides)
15n = 15 (divide both sides by 15)
n = 1
so, the number is one. hope this helps, have a great day!
I believe the answer is 9/3 maybe because 9 times 3 is 27?
312 / 50 = 6.24
70 • 6.24 = 436.8
70 cans would weigh 436.8 pounds.
Since the page is less than 90 degrees, it is an acute angle
