Answer:
a) The variable, M represents the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has
b) The set equation is 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2
c) 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
The number of fishes in Ms. Cruz's tank = 11 fishes
The number of fishes Ms, Cruz has after buying two more fishes = 3 × The amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has - 2 fishes
a) Let the variable, M represent the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has
b) The set up equation is as follows;
11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2
c) From the equation, 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2, we have;
13 = 3·M - 2
3·M = 13 + 2 = 15
3·M = 15
M = 15/3 = 5
M = 5
The number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has is 17 fishes
Answer:
nj +k = p
Step-by-step explanation:
n = (p-k)/j
Multiply each side by j
nj = (p-k)/j *j
nj = p-k
Add k to each side
nj +k p-k+k
nj +k = p
Answer:
I think the answer for the first one is 3 I am not sure about the second one
The two points where they end and the point where they start form a right triangle, one leg is 12, the other leg is 15, you need to find the hypotenuse.
use the Pythagorean theorem: 12²+15²=c²
c≈19
they are about 19 feet apart.
