Answer: 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Both lines are being cut by the same transversal so to solve for x, make both equations equal to each other
2x+10 = 3x-15
To isolate x, do the inverse operations (for any side chosen)
Do the inverse operations to move -15 and isolate 3x
Add 15 to 10 (10+15=25)
You now have 2x+25=3x
Now, do the same to combine the x values together
25=3x-2x
You now have 25=1x
Divide by 1 on both sides
25=x
Answer:
A. 8
Step-by-step explanation:
6.0061 x 10^7
/ = 6/8 x 10^7/10^6
7.8483 x 10^6
0.75 x 10^7-6
0.75 x 10^1
A: 0.75 = 7.5 = 8.
Answer:
A gene carries the <u>information</u> for a trait.
Step-by-step explanation:
Just got it right on edge
Total of 90 fish:
c + p = 90
Charlie gave 1/4 c to Peter. Now
Charlie has c - (1/4) c
Peter has p + (1/4) c
Peter gave 2/5 of his to Charlie. Now
Peter has p + (1/4) c - 2/5( p + (1/4) c )
Charlie has c - (1/4) c + 2/5( p + (1/4) c )
And then they had equal number:
c - (1/4) c + 2/5( p + (1/4) c ) = p + (1/4) c - 2/5( p + (1/4) c )
Let's do the easy subtractions then multiply by 20 to clear the fractions,
(3/4) c + 2/5( p + (1/4) c ) = 3/5( p + (1/4) c )
15c + 8p + 2c = 12p + 3c
14c = 4p
7c = 2p
c + p = 90
2c + 2p = 180
2c + 7c = 180
9c = 180
c = 20
p = 70
Answer: Charlie started with 20, Peter with 70
Check:
Initially C:20, P:70
1/4(20)=5 to P
C:15, P:75
(2/5) 75 = 30 to C
C:45, P45
Good
