Hi there!
In order to find x, we'll need to set up a proportion. This proportion is 77/22 = 87.5/x. Now, we need to cross-multiply, leaving us with 77x = 1925. Lastly, we'll need to divide in order to get the section that makes up the missing part of x. This is 25 ft. All that is left to do to find the total value of x is to add 25 and 22 together. The value of x is 47 feet.
Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
Answer:
Kylie's grandfather is 73 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first digit in Kylie's grandfather's age be x, which is the age of Isaac
Let the second digit in Kylie's grandfather's age be y, which is the age of Kendra.
Therefore from the given information we can say that
(10x + y) + x + y = 83
therefore 11x + 2y = 83
Let us take x = 7 then we get 77 + 2y = 83
y = 3
Therefore we can say Issac's age is 7
and Kendra's age is 3
and the age of Kylie's grandfather is 73.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
10/4=2.5
2.5x38=95
95 minutes= 1 hour 35 minutes
2 equations: the first one is the sum of 2 unknown numbers x and y: x + y = 72. Now the difference is 25, so x - y = 25. Solve the first equation for y: y = 72 - x. Sub that into the second equation to solve for x: x - (72 - x) = 25. x - 72 + x = 25 and 2x - 72 = 25. Therefore, 2x = 97 and x = 48.5 That's the larger of the 2 numbers; since we subtracted y from x we defined x as the larger of the 2. Just for fun, plug x in to find that y = 23.5
