Answer:

x less 21.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : the algebraic expression x - 21.5

a. 21.5 decreased by x

the expression becomes 21.5 - x

b. x more than 21.5

more than means we add , so expression becomes 21.5 +x

c. 21.5 minus x

For minus we use subtraction symbol,

so the expression becomes 21.5 -x

d. x less 21.5

x less 21.5 , we subtract 21.5

so the expression becomes x - 21.5 . that is the given expression

I'm really bad at age chart problems.<br> Can someone help me with this and provide an explanation?
Fed [463]

Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

tony is 5 years younger than Marvin's age 1 year from now.

t = (m+1) - 5

t = m - 4

6 years ago tony was half as old as marvin was then.

t - 6 = 1/2(m - 6)

Get rid of the fraction, multiply both sides by 2

2(t-6) = m - 6

2t - 12 = m - 6

2t = m - 6 + 12

2t = m + 6

from the first statement, replace t with (m-4)

2(m-4) = m + 6

2m - 8 = m + 6

2m - m = 6 + 8

m = 14 is Marvin's present age

:

how old is tony now?

t = 14 - 4

t = 10 yrs is tony's age

Two friends left school at the same time and drove in opposite directions. One friend averages 40 miles per hour and the other f
EastWind [94]
The two friends will be 150 miles apart, when the sum of the distances covered by the them is 150 miles.

distance = speed x time.
Let the time covered when they are 150 miles apart be x, then:
40x + 35x = 150
75x = 150
x = 150/75 = 2.

Therefore, the two friends will be 150 miles apart in 2 hours.

(2^8 \times 5^{-5} \times 19^0)^{-2} \times (\dfrac{5^{-2}}{2^3})^4 \times 2^{28} =

= 2^{-16} \times 5^{10} \times 1 \times \dfrac{5^{-8}}{2^{12}} \times 2^{28}

= 2^{-16} \times 5^{10} \times 5^{-8} \times 2^{-12} \times 2^{28}

= 2^{-16} \times 2^{-12} \times 2^{28} \times 5^{10} \times 5^{-8}

= 2^{-16-12+28} \times 5^{10-8}

= 2^{0} \times 5^{2}

= 1 \times 25

= 25

il63 [147K]

Answer:

n=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply, isolate the variable, and divide by the coefficient to solve.

\frac{6}{n}=\frac{24}{28} \\ \\ 24n=168 \\ \\ n=7

Plug back in to check.

\frac{6}{7}=0.857142857 \\ \\ \frac{24}{28} =0.857142857
