\left(\dfrac{2}{5}x+\dfrac{5}{8}\right)+\left(\dfrac{1}{5}x-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=\left(\dfrac{2}{5}x+\dfrac{1}{5}x\right)+\left(\dfrac{5}{8}-\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\\\\=\dfrac{2+1}{5}x+\left(\dfrac{5}{8}-\dfrac{1\cdot2}{4\cdot2}\right)=\dfrac{3}{5}x+\left(\dfrac{5}{8}-\dfrac{2}{8}\right)\\\\=\dfrac{3}{5}x+\dfrac{5-2}{8}=\boxed{\dfrac{3}{5}x+\dfrac{3}{8}}

The perimeter is equal to sum of side lengths

4x + z + 3 + 5z - 3 = 80 add like terms

10z = 80 divide both sides by 10

z = 8 PR is 4z so 8*4 = 32

Mindy and Troy combined 9 pieces of the wedding cake .Mindy ate three pieces of cake and Troy had 1/4 of the total cake
Natali [406]
<span>Mindy and troy combined 9 pieces of the wedding cake.
Mindy ate = 3 pieces of cake
Troy = had ¼ of the total cake.
Now, let’s find an equation that will give us the total number of pieces of the cake
=> Let X = Mindy
=> let Y = Troy
=> Let c = total number of cake
=> X + Y = 9, where x = 9 and y = ¼
Let’s find the number of pieces of cake that Troy’s have:
=> Y = 9 – x
=> Y = 9 – 3 = 6
=> Y = 6
Now, let’s find the number of Cake
=> 6 = c/4
=> c = 4 x 6
=> c = 24
Thus, there are 24 cakes in all.
