Find x, GH, and HI .

Mathematics
1 answer:
ruslelena [56]3 years ago

Given that GI = 53, and
• GH = 3x - 11
• HI = 2x + 4

We can establish the following equality statement to solve for x:

GH + HI = GI
3x - 11 + 2x + 4 = 53

Combine like terms:
5x - 7 = 53

Add 7 to both sides:
5x - 7 + 7 = 53 + 7
5x = 60

Divide both sides by 5 to solve for x:
5x/5 = 60/5

x = 12

Substitute the value of x into the equality statement to verify if it is the correct value for x:

GH + HI = GI
3x - 11 + 2x + 4 = 53

3(12) - 11 + 2(12) + 4 = 53
36 - 11 + 24 + 4 = 53
53 = 53 (True statement. Thus, x = 12 is the correct value).

Therefore:
GH = 3x - 11
GH = 3(12) - 11
GH = 25

HI = 2x + 4
HI = 2(12) + 4
HI = 28

Plz help me just don't get it
fredd [130]
To make this problem easier you could make the denominators equal to combine the 2 bills to see how of his paycheck is being used already. to 2/7 = 6/21 and 1/3=7/21 so with 6/21 and 7/21 you can combine them and you have 13/21 is used on bills so 21/21(which represents the whole paycheck) - 13/21 =8/21 so 8/21 is what is left his paycheck to spend write this as a decimal by dividing and you will have the percentage that he has left  so 8/21 = .38 so he can spend approximately 38% of his check on games and 63dollars * .38 is about 24dollars 63*.38 =24(approximately) you divide 8/21 and get an exact answer.
