Let the 1st number be x; 2nd number be y; 3rd number be z.
x + y + z = 79
x = number we are looking for.
y = x * 5 ==> 5 times the first
z = x + 16 ==> 16 more than the first
Therefor,
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
1st step, multiply the 2nd number: x * 5 = 5x
x + 5x + x + 16 = 79
Add all like numbers:
7x + 16 = 79
To get x, transfer 16 to the other side and change its sign from positive to negative.
7x = 79 - 16
7x = 63
To get x, divide both sides by 7
7x/7 = 63/7
x = 9
To check. Substitute x by 9.
x + (x * 5) + (x+16) = 79
9 + (9 * 5) + (9 + 16) = 79
9 + 45 + 25 = 79
79 = 79 equal. value of x is correct.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The chance the coin will show 'tails' is 1/2, since there are only 2 sides to a coin. The chance that the die will show an even number is also 1/2, since half of the numbers on a die are even, and half are odd. But, since both of these events depend on each other, or in other words, are dependent, we have to multiply both numbers. 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4, therefore your answer is A.
Answer:
Mathematical domain is all numbers, as all numbers can be multiplied by 4. However, this is not reasonable as negative lengths don't exist, so the reasonable domain would be all positive numbers.
