Can someone help with this math problem? 3 (x+6) = 27

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ainat [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use distributive property: a(b +c) =(a*b) + (a*c)

3(x + 6) = 27

3*x + 3*6 = 27

3x + 18  = 27 {Subtract 18 from both sides}

3x + 18 -18 = 27 - 18

         3x    = 9  {Divide both sides by 3}

        3x/3 = 9/3

x = 3

ABC Bookstore uses a storage unit that measures 13 ft x 16 ft x 12 ft. What is
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

2496 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimension of storage unit 13 ft x 16 ft x 12 ft.

Since there are three sides it can be safely assumed that storage unit is rectangular in shape.

Volume of rectangular body is given by length * width * height

Using the above formula in the given dimension we have

volume of storage unit = length of storage unit * width of storage unit  * height of storage unit

volume of storage unit = 13 ft * 16 ft * 12 ft = 2,496 cubic feet

The time is took Tayna to complete different sets of math problems varied directly with the number of problems in the set Tayna'
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

time is directly proportional to the number of problems in the set

=> x = ky

k = constant of proportionality

when k = 12

x = 12y

by making y the subject, we divide both sides by 12

=> y = x/12

Barney & Noblet customers can choose to purchase a membership for $25 per year Members receive 10% off all store purchases
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

  1. $70
  2. y = 25 + 0.9x
  3. $250

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 10% of $50 is $5, so the purchases would come to $50 -5 = $45. Added to the $25 membership fee, the total cost for the year would be

  $45 +25 = $70

2. The member pays $25 even if no purchases are made. Then any purchases are 100% - 10% = 90% of the marked price. So, the total is ...

  y = 25 + 0.90x

3. $25 is 10% of $250, so that is the amount the member would have to purchase to break even on cost.

If you like, you can compare the cost without the membership (x) to the cost with the membership (25+.9x) and see where those costs are equal.

  x = 25 +0.9x . . . . . x is the spending level at which there is no advantage

  0.1x = 25 . . . . . . . . subtract 0.9x

  25/0.1 = x = 250 . . . divide by 0.1
