Let unknown number be x
3x + 5 = 65
3x = 60
x = 20
Therefore, unknown number is 20.
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
The whole line (DF) equals 9x - 39. So you need to make that equal to 47+3x+10 and work out like so. I hope this helps!
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
A simple matter of using Pythagoras. The hypotenuse is the ladder, and one of the legs is the wall, and we have to figure out the value of the other leg.
The Pythagorean formuda is (hypotenuse = a): a² + b² = c² (b and c are the other sides)
applying the values: a = 5 and b or c is 3 (I'll put b = 3)
5² = 3² + c²
25 = 9 + c²
25 - 9 = c²
16 = c²
√16 = c
4 = c
c = 4
You know where the glacier is now, and how far it moves in
one year. The question is asking how close to the sea it will be
after many years.
Step-1 ... you have to find out how many years
Step-2 ... you have to figure out how far it moves in that many years
Step-3 ... you have to figure out where it is after it moves that far
The first time I worked this problem, I left out the most important
step ... READ the problem carefully and make SURE you know
the real question. The first time I worked the problem, I thought
I was done after Step-2.
============================
Step-1: How many years is it from 2010 to 2030 ?
(2030 - 2010) = 20 years .
Step-2: How far will the glacier move in 20 years ?
It moves 0.004 mile in 1 year.
In 20 years, it moves 0.004 mile 20 times
0.004 x 20 = 0.08 mile
Step-3: How far will it be from the sea after all those years ?
In 2010, when we started watching it, it was 6.9 miles
from the sea.
The glacier moves toward the sea.
In 20 years, it will be 0.08 mile closer to the sea.
How close will it be ?
6.9 miles - 0.08 mile = 6.82 miles (if it doesn't melt)
The answer is 6/48. You would multiply 3/8 by 1/3 across and get 3/24,then you multiply 3/24 by 2 and get 6/48
