First you would multiply 3/4 by 2 then multiply 1/2 by 4 and get 6/8 and 4/8.
Answer:
The correct answer is 24
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve this you will need to use the pathagreom theorum
a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}
A= one side lenth
B= the secons side lenth
C= hypotnuse
It is helpfull to draw out the situation
you know that the latter is 25 ft, that is your hypotnuse
you also know that the 7 ft away from the base of the building is one of the side lenths, lets call it side a
so plug the numbers into the equation
7^2 + b^2 = 25 ^2
you leave b^2 alone because that is the side you are trying to find
now square 7 and 25 but leave b^2 alone
49 + b^2 = 625
now subtract 49 from both sides
b^2 = 576
now to get rid of the square of b you have to do the opposite and square root both sides removing the square of the B and giving you the answer of..........
B= 24
Hope this helped!! I tryed to explain it as simpil as possiable
This is exactly like the one with the 'n's that you posted yesterday.
I guess you didn't get enough help on that one to understand it.
<span><u>7k/8 - 3/4 - 5k/16 = 3/8</u>
3/4 is the same as 6/8.
Add it to each side of the equation:
7k/8 - 5k/16 = 9/8
Multiply each side by 16 :
14k - 5k = 18
Add up the 'k's on the left side:
9k = 18
From this point, you can proceed directly to the numerical value of 'k'
if you need it.<u />
In your question, you said you need help, and I showed you how to
strip the problem down so that the only thing left is ' k = something '.
Giving you the answer is no help. Nobody actually needs the answer.

Answer:
3x = 50 - 10y
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, x represents the number of 3 lb weights and y represents the number of 10 lb weights,
So, total weight of 3 lb weights = 3x
And, the weight of 10 lb weights = 10y
Total weight of all his weights = 3x + 10y
According to the question,
Total weight = 50 lb,
⇒ 3x + 10y = 50
Or 3x = 50 - 10y
Which is the required equation.
Second option is correct.
