Homework (5)

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set the ratio as

7x : 9x

If you add all the states that border an ocean and do not, you will get 48 states (because Alaska and Hawaii are not part of the continental US, as they do not touch the "main" part of the country)

So, we can write this equation.

7x + 9x = 48

Simplify.

16x = 48

Divide both sides by 16.

x = 4

Now, find how many states border an ocean. In our ratio, the number of states that border an ocean was 7x. Substitute x = 4 into 7x

7 * x = 7 * 4 = 28

The number of states that border an ocean is 28.

I hope this helps! Feel free to ask any questions!

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{6}(30x + 24) - \frac{1}{7}(63 - 7x)$

Step 2: Simplify

Distribute: $\displaystyle \frac{1}{6}(30x) + \frac{1}{6}(24) - \frac{1}{7}(63) - \frac{1}{7}(-7x)$
Multiply: $\displaystyle 5x + 4 - 9 + x$
Rearrange: $\displaystyle 5x + x + 4 - 9$
Combine like terms: $\displaystyle 6x - 5$
