Let's remember that 1 pound equals 0.0005 tons, so if we multiply 0.0005 x 20,000 the answer is 10, so 20,000 pounds equal 10 tons.
The lowest is the square root of 9 which is 3. After that is 3.15, 13/4 (3.25), 3 1/2 (3.50). My explanation would be: first I found out the square root of 9. Then divided 13 by 4.
Answer:
The number is 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets write this as an equation first. We'll substitute the number for the variable <em>x</em>.
80 - 3x = 5x + 8
First, let's add 3x to both sides.
80 - 3x + 3x = 5x + 3x + 8
80 = 8x + 8
Next, let's subtract 8 from both sides.
80 - 8 = 8x + 8 - 8
72 = 8x
Finally, let's divide both sides by 8.
72/8 = 8x/8
9 = x
<em>"x" is 9.</em>
<em>So the secret number is 9.</em>
