Answer:
Quiana has 8 text messages from Pierre.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved using a rule of three.
Quiana has 7 times more text messages from Yolanda than from Pierre.
This means that for each message that she receives from Pierre, she receives 7 from Yolanda.
She received 56 from Yolanda.
So
7 messages from Yolanda - 1 messages from Pierre
56 messages from Yolanda - x messages from Pierre
Quiana has 8 text messages from Pierre.
The dimensions of a room are determined by its length, width and height. In this problem we will assign a length of 12', a width of 13', and a height of 8' (as standard ceiling heights in most homes are 8' high). To calculate the amount of molding needed for strips at the top of the room and the bottom of the room we need to find the perimeter of the room. A length of 12' and a width of 13' make this room a rectangle. Determine the perimeter by adding 12' + 13' and multiplying the sum by 2 to get 50'. Multiply 50' x 2 to account for a decorative strip of molding at the floor and the ceiling and you get 100' total molding needed.
X is -24
Divide each side by the 5/6 and that's how you solve for x
The answer is 1738
Hope this helps you
