Answer:
15 14/15
Step-by-step explanation:
8 + 7 = 15
1/3 + 3/5
5/15 + 9/15
14/15
15 + 14/15 = 15 14/15
Answer: Choice B)
2x+5(2x+3) = 3
============================================
Reasoning:
We start with the second equation 2x+5y = 3
Since y = 2x+3 from the first equation, we can replace every copy of y with (2x+3). This replacement is valid because y and 2x+3 are the same.
So that's how we go from 2x+5y = 3 to 2x+5(2x+3) = 3
This replacement is done to get rid of the y variable, and it allows us to solve for x later on.
700 calories
1750 divided by 5 is 350
multiply that by two and you get 700
Equation: x + x + 6 = 2x = 25
smallest side is 4.75 units
largest size is 4.75 + 6 = 10.75 units
3rd side is 2(4.75)= 9.5 units
smallest side is x
largest size is x + 6
3rd side is 2x

x = 4.75 is the smallest side
smallest side is 4.75 units
largest size is 4.75 + 6 = 10.75 units
3rd side is 2(4.75)= 9.5 units
