-12x - 0.4 > 0.2(36.5x + 80) - 55 Remove the brackets.
-12x - 0.4 > 7.3x + 16 - 55 Combine the like terms on the right
-12x - 0.4 > 7.3x - 39 Add 12x to both sides
- 0.4 > 7.3x + 12x - 39
- 0.4 > 19.3x - 39 Add 39 to both sides.
-0.4 + 39 > 19.3x Combine like terms on the left
38.6 > 19.3x Divide by 19.3
38.6 / 19.3 > x
2 > x
Answer:
John’s age is 8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> John’s father's age
y -----> John’s age
z -----> John’s sister's age
we know that
-----> equation A
-----> equation B
-----> equation C
Substitute equation A and equation B in equation C and solve for y
Multiply by 2 both sides to remove the fraction
<em>Find the value of x</em>
<em>Find the value of z</em>
therefore
John’s father's age is 40 years
John’s age is 8 years
John’s sister's age is 4 years
Answer:
The correct answer is 144.
Step-by-step explanation:
The librarian noticed that 60% of total seventh graders checked out fantasy books from the library.
Total number of seventh graders is given to be 240.
Number of seventh grade students who checked out fantasy books = 60% of 240 = 0.6 × 240 = 144.
Thus out of 240 seventh graders 144 of them would check out a fantasy book from the library.
