On solving the linear equation, There are in total 24 unshaded squares and 16 shaded squares.
<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>
Ax+By=C is the usual form for two-variable linear equations. A typical form linear equation is, for instance, 2x+3y=5. When an equation is provided in this format, finding both intercepts is rather simple (x and y).
squares, where x= number of squares
2x = shaded squares
Number of unshaded squares = 3x.
This is due to the fact that there are 3 times as many unshaded squares as there are shaded squares (2 times more unshaded = 3*). (shaded)
Overall, there are 40 squares (5 * 8), therefore 40 total squares—shaded and unshaded—are present.
2x+3x = 40
5x = 40
x = 40/5
x = 8
There are 3×8 = 24 unshaded squares
8×2 = 16 shaded squares in all.
Therefore, you may shade in 8 squares whatever you choose.

Yes this is correct. if you do distribution and multiply 2 times x it's 2x. you then multiply 2 times 6 and this equals 12. add twelve and 8 and this equals 20. the answer 2x+20 is correct
S=saving
X=amount left
S-55=x
Another way : x=s-55
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
used Pythagorean theorem
a ^2+b^2=c^2
6^2+8^2=c^2
36+64=c^2
c^2= 100
find square root of 100 to find c
=10
