Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 30 = 14 - 3x
4x = 44
x = 11
Let's call the unknown number x
Now let's decrease it by 30, that is x-30
Now let's write out "14 decreased by three times the number", that is 14 - 3x
The problem says these are the same, that is x - 30 = 14 - 3x
We now want to isolate, or solve for, x
Move the x to one side of the equation by adding 3x to both sides
3x + x -30 = 14 - 3x + 3x
4x -30 = 14
Now move the 30 to the right hand side by adding 30 to both sides
4x - 30 + 30 = 14 + 30
4x = 44
Now all we have to do to get x is divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = 44/4
x = 11
Answer:
1.2 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
We need 400 grams of potatoes for 4 people. That means each person will require 400 / 4 = 100 grams.
Now, we have 12 people, so the total number of grams needed will be:
(100 g/person) * (12 people) = 1200 grams
However, we want the answer in kilograms. There are 1000 grams in a kilogram, so divide 1200 by 1000:
1200 / 1000 = 1.2 kg
The answer is 1.2 kg.
16 is the rational number, hope this is helpful
Answer:
Options (1) and (5) are the correct options.
Step-by-step explanation:
See attachment for the complete question.
Simon's work,
Area of the base = B =
=32.5 m²
Volume = Bh = 32.5(12) = 390 m³
Let's check the error's he made.
Area of the base of the triangular prism
B =
B = 30 m²
Volume of the prism = (Area of the triangular base)×(Height)
V = 30 × 4
V = 120 m³
Therefore, Options (1) and (5) are the correct options.
