Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

3x/6 + 2 = 8

Subtract 2 from each side

3x/6 + 2-2 = 8-2

3x/6 =6

Multiply each side by 6/3

6/3 * 3/6 x = 6 *6/3

x = 36/3

x = 12

The sum of two numbers is 49 and the difference between these two numbers is 9. What are these two numbers?​Shown working out pl
8_murik_8 [283]

Let numbers be x and y

ATQ

  • x+y=49---(1)

  • x-y=9---(2)

Adding both

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x=58

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{58}{2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=29

Now putting value in eq(2)

\\ \sf\longmapsto x-y=9

\\ \sf\longmapsto 29-9=y

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=20

Which pair of numbers are not opposites?
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

The answer is C, 17 and | -17|

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this using the process of elimination.

Looking at the first one, we know that those | | around the 7 mean to find the absolute value. The absolute value is the number of units the number is from zero, and it is always positive. This means that it is saying 7 and -7. Those are opposites, so we know that this isn't right.

17 and -17 are opposites, since the opposite of a positive is a negative.

The last one is the same. 71 and -71 are opposites. That leaves us with C.

Remember that those | | mean to find the absolute value of. -17 is 17 unites from zero. So is 17 the oppostie of 17? No, so these are not opposites, and therefore are our answer.

What is the area of the parallelogram shown above
adoni [48]

The area of the parallelogram is 55 square feet

<h3>How to determine the area of the parallelogram?</h3>

From the figure, we have the following dimensions:

Height = 5 ft

Base = 11 ft

The area of the parallelogram is calculated as:

Area = Base * Height

This gives

Area = 5ft * 11ft

Evaluate the product

Area = 55 square feet

Hence, the area of the parallelogram is 55 square feet

The ratio of a to b is 3 to 1, and the ratio of b to c is 1 to 5. What is the value of 2a+3b/ 4b+3c?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Expressing the ratios as fractions, that is

\frac{a}{b} = \frac{3}{1} ( cross- multiply )

a = 3b

\frac{b}{c} = \frac{1}{5} ( cross- multiply )

c = 5b

------------------------------------------

Given

\frac{2a+3b}{4b+3c} , substitute values from above for a and c

= \frac{2(3b)+3b}{4b+3(5b)}

= \frac{6b+3b}{4b+15b}

= \frac{9b}{19b} ← cancel b on numerator/ denominator

= \frac{9}{19} → B

Holly drove 100 miles in 4 hours, and Yemi drove 100 miles in 5 hours. How can you compare the speeds of Holly and Yemi? Explain
Lelu [443]
The first thing that yo do is divide 100 by 5 for Yemi and that's how fast she drove which is 20 miles per hour. And then you do the same thing for Holly 100 divided by 4 which is 25 mph. So Holly is driving faster than Yemi. So you can compare them by dividing the miles by hours for both of them.
