Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
, substitute values
=
( cross- multiply )
56(3x - 5) = 32(5x - 5) ← distribute and simplify both sides
168x - 280 = 160x - 160 ( subtract 160x from both sides )
8x - 280 = - 160 ( add 280 to both sides )
8x = 120 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 15
Answer: each eraser cost 5 dollors
Step-by-step explanation: Simplifying
25 = 5 + 4e
Solving
25 = 5 + 4e
Solving for variable 'e'.
Move all terms containing e to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-4e' to each side of the equation.
25 + -4e = 5 + 4e + -4e
Combine like terms: 4e + -4e = 0
25 + -4e = 5 + 0
25 + -4e = 5
Add '-25' to each side of the equation.
25 + -25 + -4e = 5 + -25
Combine like terms: 25 + -25 = 0
0 + -4e = 5 + -25
-4e = 5 + -25
Combine like terms: 5 + -25 = -20
-4e = -20
Divide each side by '-4'.
e = 5
Simplifying
e = 5
Okay, So An Equation To Write Is:
T = Time
S = Money Saved
R = Money Made Per Dog
C = Cost
T = (C - S)/R
Solve:
T = (108 - 30)/8
Simplify
108-30 = 78
T = 78/8
78/8 = 9.75.
T = 9.75
Now, You Can't Walk 0.75 Of A Dog, So Round It.
T = 10
So, You Need To Walk At Least 10 Dogs.
