3rd tree = x

1st tree = 3x+50

2nd tree = 2x+100


3x+50 = 2x+100

subtract 50 from each side

3x= 2x+50

subtract 2x from each side

x = 50

 so 3rd tree = 50 feet tall

 Answer is B

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

P>-\frac{6}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that dont't contain the variable.

2(P+1)+3(P+2)>2

2P+2+3P+6>2

5P+8>2

     -8    -8

5P>-6

Divide both sides by 5.

P>-\frac{6}{5}

Round tables seating 8 people and rectangular tables seating 12 people are being used at a banquet for 8th graders. The ratio of
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

<u>36 tables are used to seat  the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Round tables = 8 seats

Rectangular tables = 12 seats

Ratio of round tables to rectangular tables = 2:1

Number of students = 336

2. How many tables are used to seat 336 students at the banquet, if no table has an empty seat?

x = Number of rectangular tables

2x = Number of round tables

Let's solve for x, using this equation:

12x + 8 (2x) = 336

12x + 16x = 336

28x = 336

x = 336/28

x = 12 ⇒ 2x = 24

12 + 24 = 36

<u>36 tables are used to seat  the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.</u>

Point C ∈ AB and AB=18 cm. The distance from C to A is 3 cm. shorter than the distance from C to B. Find AC and CB.
gogolik [260]

Answer:

AC=7.5 cm

CB=10.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we don't know the distance from C to B, we can label it as x. Our equation will be x+(x-3)=18. Simplify that so it is 2x-3=18. Add 3 to both sides and get 2x=21. x=10.5 So AC=7.5 cm and CB is 10.5 cm
