20x + 25 = 165

x represents the number of bags. You can solve the equation to make sure the answer is 7.

20x + 25 = 165

Subtract 25 from both sides.

20x = 140

Divide 20 off of both sides.

x = 7

How to do linear equations 27, 28,28,30
Mekhanik [1.2K]
#27.  
First cross multiply
2 (2a-3) = 3 (a-1)
next use the distribute property on both sides
4a - 6 = 3a - 3
combine like terms, subtract 3a from both sides and add 6 to both sides
a = 3

#28
cross multiply
3x = 4, then divide both sides by 3
x = 4/3

#30
add 1/4 to both sides
3/x = 1/2 + 1/4, find a common denominator for the right side fractions
3/x = 2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4
therefore, x = 4

In the figure, AB∥CD. Find x and y.
velikii [3]

Answer:

y=131°

x=53°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ ABD and ∠ BDC are supplementary.

The sum of the supplementary angles =180 °

thus y-4+x=180...........i

x and 37° are complementary, that  is, they add up to 90°

Thus, x=90-37=53°

Using this value in equation 1 we obtain:

y-4°+53° =180°

y= 180°-53°+4°

y=131°
