Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
25%=1/4
of=*
3=1/4x
3 divided by 1/4 or 0.25 =12
Answer:
z=20
Step-by-step explanation:
(2z + 16) +124 =180
2z + 16 +124
2z + 140 = 180
2z -140 -140
2z = 40
z = 20
Replace x with 10 and simplify the fraction.
40/10 = 4/1 = 4
The answer is 4
Write an equation system based on the problem
For an instance, e stands for the price of a carton of eggs, and b stands for the price of a loaf of bread
"Kate bought 3 cartons of eggs and 5 loaves of bread for $30.07" could be written as 3e + 5b = 30.07 (first equation)
"Melissa bought 2 cartons of eggs and 2 loaves of bread for $14.74" could be written as 2e + 2b = 14.74 (second equation)
Solve the equation system using elimination method
Eliminate b to find e. To eliminate b, we should equalize the coefficient of b.
3e + 5b = 30.07 (multiplied by 2)
2e + 2b = 14.74 (multiplied by 5)
-------------------------------------------
6e + 10b = 60.14
10e + 10b = 73.70
------------------------- - (substract)
-4e = -13.56
e = -13.56/-4
e = 3.39
The price for a carton of eggs is $3.39
