First set up an equation as your approach. I will use the equation x+4x=24 because that way you are saying that something pluse itself times 4 equals 24 which is what you want.
simplify the equation
5x=24
x=24/5
So you know onw piece will be 24/5 of a foot and the ither qould be that times 4 so 96/24 of a foot. In decimals it would be 4.8 and 19.2
Answer:
144 (If multiplying)
Step-by-step explanation:
18x8=144.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total pens = 22
Total clips = 30
Probability of red pen = 0
Because there are no red pens
Probability of white clip = 16/30 = 8/15
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
20-6=14 (Distance between points) then 14*3/7=6.
3/7 of the distance from A=6 to B=20 is 6. Thus, we find the point that is
3/7 of the distance from A=6 to B=20 by adding 6 to 6.
6+6= 12
Therefore, the point that is
3/7 from A=6 to B=20 is 12.
Answer:
Convert into same base
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert both sides into same bases and equate the powers to solve for the variable.
Example:
8^x = 32
You can either use logs to bring the power down or convert both sides into the same base
8 = 2³
8^x = (2³)^x = 2^(3x)
32 = 2⁵
2^(3x) = 2⁵
3x = 5
x = 5/3
x = 1⅔
