Answer:
x = 5 In.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a parellelogram is usually basically the same as that of a rectangle or square. So the equation for the area of this parellogram is 60/12.
That would give you 5 which makes x equal to 5 inches.
Answer:
2(3-x)-12+4x
6-x-12+4x
6-x-8x
6+8x =
14x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
16 tricycles
12 bicycles
Step-by-step explanation:
If all were bicycles, there would be 28·2 = 56 wheels. Each additional wheel indicates the presence of a tricycle instead of a bicycle.
There are 72 -56 = 16 tricycles. The remaining 28-16 = 12 are bicycles.
30 M&Ms
1) Gathering the data
12-ounce bag of trail mix = 18 M&Ms
20-ounce bag=?
2) Assuming that the M&Ms are placed in following a constant rate we can write the following proportion:
12 --------------- 18
20 --------------- y
<em>Cross multiplying it due to the first property of proportions</em>
<em />
12y =20 x 18
12y = 360
y=30
3) So, I'd expect to find 30 M&Ms at a 20-ounce bag of trail mix.
