So these are basically isolating the variables.
The first equation is 3g + 5 =17.
In order to isolate the variable, we would have to get g by itself, that means 5 would have to go. In order to do this, we would do the opposite. Since it is positive 5 we would add negative 5, in order for it to disappear. This works because a positive 5 and negative 5 cancel each other out. Whatever you do to one side of the equation you have to do to the other, since we subtract 5 on one side we have to subtract 5 on the other. Therefore we would do 17-5.
Now we have 3g=12
We know that 3g is basically 3 multiplied by g. The opposite of multiplication is division.Therefore we would divide by 3 on both sides.
The answer to the first question would be g= 4.
And if you want to check if your answer is correct you plug the value in.
So
3(4) + 5 =17
Answer:
1/216
Step-by-step explanation:
I am pretty sure this is correct
you have to make the whole number 6 into a fraction 6/1
now it is 1/6 divided by 6/1 but you need to do KCF keep change flip
so now it is 1/6 times 1/6 and you get 1/36
then turn 6 into a fraction again
then KCF
Now it is 1/36 times 1/6 and you get 1/216
We know,
1 unit : 5 feet
so, 120 ft = (120 / 5) units
= 24 units
75 ft = (75 / 5) units
= 15 units
∴ Dimensions of scale drawing is 24 units by 15 units.
Answer: 15.7 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the time in the beginning (in minutes).
Given: The track team is trying to reduce their time for a relay race.
First they reduce their time by 2.1 minutes.
Then they are able to reduce that time by 10
If their final time is 3.96 minutes, then
x-t1-t2= 3.6
x= 3.6+ t1+ t2
x= 3.6+ 2.1+ 10
x= 15.7
Hence, their beginning time was 15.7 minutes.
