0.405, 0.45 , 0.5 , 4.5 : Least to greatest!
Answer:
The length of the shorter piece=0.35 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the lengths be as follow;
Shorter piece=x
Longer piece=15 cm longer than twice shorter piece(x)
Since 1 m=100 cm, 15 cm=15/100=0.15 m
Longer piece= (2×x)+0.15=2x+0.15
Total length=1.2 m
Total length=shorter piece+longer piece
Replacing;
1.2=x+2x+0.15
3x=1.2-0.15
3x=1.05
x=(1.05/3)=0.35
The length of the shorter piece=x=0.35
The answer is either x>-7 or x<-7 I think it is the first one but I haven’t done these in a while so I forget when to switch the signs
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
8/72 = x/36
crossmultiply
8 x 36 = X x 72
288 = 72x
divide both sides by 72
288/72 = x
therefore , x = 4
Answer:
Aaron's bowling score is 30
David's bowling score is 54
Step-by-step explanation:
The variable representing Aaron's score is = a
The variable representing David's bowling score = d
The sum of their scores is 84.
= a + d = 84...... Equation 1
David's bowling score is 6 less than 2 times Aaron's score.
d = 2a - 6
Substituting 2a - 6 for d in Equation 1
a + 2a - 6 = 84
3a - 6 = 84
3a = 84 + 6
3a = 90
a = 90/3
a = 30
Hence, Aaron's bowling score is 30
d = 2a - 6
d = 2(30) - 6
d = 60 - 6
d = 54
David's bowling score is 54
