Answer:
16 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that x is the original width. If that original width is enlarged by a scale factor 5/2 that means that x is multiplied by 5/2 and after that multiplication we obtained new width, 40 cm.
Therefore,
x*(5/2) = 40
We multiply the equation by 2 and obtain:
x*5 = 40*2
5x = 80
Now we divide the equation by 5 and obtain:
x = 80/5
x = 16
We obtained that x, the original width was 16 cm
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation: 2+2=4
because imagine if u had 2 dollars and your mom gave u another 2 dollars u will have 4 dollars
Answer:
0.62kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = 40/kg coffee
y = 11/kg coffee
two equations can be derived from the question
x + y = 12 equation 1
40x + 11y = 114 (9.5 x 12) equation 2
multiply equation 1 by 11
11x + 11y = 132 equation 3
subtract eqn 3 from eqn 2
29x = 18
divide both sides of the equation by 29
x = 0.62kg
Answer:
The answer is B, this is because we already 60 students play in the orchestra, we just don’t know how many play cello. But we do know it is 20 percent of the orchestra. That way we know that the correct graph is B.
Please mark me Brainliest if I got it right. Thank you and have a nice day!
You could do all of the work with the multiplying, but what I think it wants you to see is that you can divide like numbers by subtracting exponents.
so if we did that we would get 
this in turn would give us 4 x -9 x -5 = 180
