Answer:
9 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number be x and second number be y hence their sum
x+y=12 ......(1)
Making x the subject theb x=12-y
Three times be first number is 3x
3x-y=24.......(2)
Adding the two sets of equations then
4x=36
X=36/4=9
The second number will be 12-9=3
So the first number is 9 and second is 3
Answer:
2 1/2 miles per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
So to travel 8 3/4 miles, we need 3 1/2 gallons of gas. All we need to do is divide the gallons of gas by miles. So we would do 8 3/4 divided by 3 1/2. 3 1/2 goes into 8 3/4 2 1/2 times.
Answer:
8/25, 0.16, 16%
Step-by-step explanation:
P(#>4) = P(5)+P(6) = 4/25+4/25 = 8/25
Distributive property says 4 * a and 4 * -1 so 4a - 4 - 5 = 3a + 7
Now do the simple subtraction
-4 - 5 = -9
Then add 9 and subtract 3a <span>Remember: Always do the opposite operation to <span><em>both
</em><em />sides. So you have a = 16<em>
