Answer: b = 16

Steps:
75% of b is 12
75% * b = 12
0.75 * b = 12
b = 12/0.75
b = 16

Check:
0.75 * 16 = 12
12 = 12 ✅

If this was correct and helpful I would appreciate the brainliest! :)

Plz help and show how you did the math question

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

$x = - 3$

$y = - 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y=x+1 plug it into bottom equation as y.

$x + 1= 5x + 13$

Subtract 1 from both sides

$x = 5x + 12$

Subtract 5x from both sides

$- 4x = 12$

Divide both sides by -4

$x = - 3$

Now x=-3 into the top equation to find y

$- 3 + 1 = - 2$

y=-2

1/4 times the sum of a number and −3.2 is 1.8. What is the number?

joja [24]

Answer:

10.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Sum of x and -3.2 : x + (-3.2) = x - 3.2

1/4 times the sum of a number and −3.2 = (1/4) * (x - 3.2)

$\dfrac{1}{4}* \left( x - 3.2 \right) = 1.8\\\\\Multiply \ the \ whole \ equation \ by \ 4 \\\\4*\dfrac{1}{4} *(x - 3.2) = 1.8*4\\\\\\x - 3.2 = 7.2\\\\Add \ 3.2 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\\\x = 7.2 + 3.2\\$

x = 10.4

Draw a model to represent 42/7

ch4aika [34]

Here is a model I have made (I'm not a great artist). There are 42 circles in total, placed in 7 columns. Each column has 6 circles. This model represents 42/7 by splitting 42 into 7 parts, which are the columns, and showing that each column has 6 circles, which is the answer to 42/7.
