The difference of three times a number and five is four. Then the number is 3
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that,
Difference of three times a number and five is four
We have to find the number
Let us frame a equation using the given information and solve the sum
Let the number be "n"
Difference of three times a number and five = 4
Three times n - 5 = 4
3n - 5 = 4
3n = 9
On dividing 9 by 3 we get 3
n = 3
Thus the required number is 3
Answer:
Cost of small box = $13
Cost of large box = $18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of small box of candy = $s
And the cost of large candy box = $b
Beth sold 9 small and 10 large boxes of candies for $297.
9s + 10b = 297 -----(1)
Sarah sold 8 small and 5 large boxes of candies for $194.
8s + 5b = 194 -------(2)
Multiply equation (2) by 2 then subtract equation (1) from (2).
2(8s + 5b) - (9s + 10b) = (2×194) - 297
16s + 10b - 9s - 10b = 388 - 297
7s = 91 ⇒ s = $13
From equation (2),
(8×13) + 5b = 194
104 + 5b = 194
5b = 90
b = $18
The interest
580×0.16×(60÷360)
=15.47
The proceeds
580−15.47
=564.53
Answer:
x = -20.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: −5x − 25 − 25 = 78 − 25
Should be
Step 1: -5x-25+25=78+25
Step 2: -5x=103
Step 3: Divide both sides by -5: x = -20.6
C is the correct answer because that's the only answer where all the numbers (i.e. 3, -1, 2) all, when plugged into the function, equal 0. For example:
3³ - (4 × 3²) + 3 + 6 = 0
-1³ - (4 × (-1)²) + (-1) + 6 = 0
2³ - (4 × 2²) + 2 + 6 = 0
As we see, everything adds up to 0. So, C is the correct answer.
