Answer:

12 sapphires

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number of sapphires x. This means the number of rubies is the total number of gems minus x, or 17-x.

# of Sapphires: x

# of Rubies:17-x

A sapphire is worth 5 (gold coins) each, and a ruby is worth 8.

We also know the total amount of money is 100 coins, so

5*x+8*(17-x)=100

5x+136-8x=100

-3x=-36

x=12

Remember:

# of Sapphires: x

# of Rubies:17-x

...so Lara found 12 sapphires and 17-12=5 rubies.

➷ You have to collect like terms

In other words, add together the values that have x in them and add together the values that don't

4x + 7x = 11x

8 + 3 = 11

The answer is 11x + 11

What are three different ways to write 5 to the 11 power

Olin [163]

(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)(5)
5^11
That is two of the three but I'm not quite sure if there is a third.

If ΔABC is an equilateral triangle with, AB = 2x + 17, BC = 6x - 19, AC = 4x-1, find x and the measure of each side

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

$x=9, AB=BC=AC=35$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equilateral triangles have 3 congruent sides, so all 3 sides have the same length. Therefore, we know that $AB=BC=AC$ . We are given the lengths of all 3 sides in terms of $x$ , but we only need to set two of them equal to each other to solve for $x$ . Let's use $AB$ and $BC$ to solve for $x$ . We know that $AB=BC$ , $AB=2x+17$ , and $BC=6x-19$ . Therefore, we can write the following equation to solve for
