Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

EG = 59

EF = 8x - 14

FG = 4x + 1

to find the value of x

EF + FG = EG (same line)

8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59

12x -13 = 59

12x = 59 + 13

12x = 72

x = 72 ÷ 12

x = 6

You can even cross check for correct answer

EF + FG = EG

instead of x place the x's value we got

8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59

8 (6) - 14 + 4 (6) + 1 = 59

48 - 14 + 24 + 1 = 59

34 + 25 = 59

59 = 59

CROSS - CHECKED

ohaa [14]

The 3 lbs of candy is irrelevant, so we can discard that. All you need to do is divide 147 by 26, which is 5.65 pieces of candy. Each student will get 5 pieces, with a few left over.

Pencils that were selling at three for 25 cents are now on sale at five for 29 cents. How much money, in cents, would you save b
natita [175]

Answer:

We would save $1.52 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

3 the pencil were at sale for 25 cent

1 pencil = 25 cent/3 =8.33 cent per one pencil

5 the pencil were at sale for 29 cent

1 pencil = 29 cent/5 =5.8 cent per one pencil

If we bought 60 pencil in group of 3 for 25 cent

=60/3= 20 pencil

25cents * 20 pencil = 500 cent per 60 pencil

If we bought 60 pencil in group of 5 for 29 cent

=60/5= 12 pencil

29cents * 12 pencil = 348 cent per 60 pencil

From the analysis, the 5 pencil for 29 cent is cheaper are we are going to save: 500-348= 152 cents
