Answer:
3. 72= (x)+(x+1)+(x+2) where x= the smallest number
72=3x+3
-3 -3
69=3x
/3 /3
x=23
x+1=24
x+2=25
smallest is 23
4. 48= (x)+(x+2)+(x+4)
48= 3x+6
-6 -6
42=3x
/3 /3
x=14
x+2=16
x+4=18
smallest is 14
5. all erasers were the same cost
25= 4x+5 (x= cost of erasers)
-5 -5
20=4x
/4 /4
x=5
each cost $5
6. b= boxes
22= b/2 +7
-7 -7
15=b/2
multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator
30=b
30 boxes originally
7. 40= total
8= left
2= balls given to each
x=number of friends
40= 2x+8
-8 -8
32=2x
/2 /2
x=16
she has 16 friends
8. 12= left
a= total allowance
12= (a/2) +4
-4 -4
8= a/2
multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator
a= $16
she had an allowance of $16
9. 4 (2) = amount that her four children recieved
10=amount she took for herself
x= original
x= 4(2) + 10
x= 8 +10
x=18
she started with 18 candies
10. a= age
244= 400 - 2a
-400 -400
-156= -2a
/-2 /-2
a= 78
they are 78 years old
11. c= comic books
36= c/2 + 16
-16 -16
20=c/2
multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator
c=40
she started with 40 comic books
12. b= students in buses
472= 9b + 4
-4 -4
468=9b
/9 /9
b= 52
52 students went in each bus
13. h= hats
17= h/2 +5
-5 -5
12=h/2
multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator
h=24
she had 24 hats on monday
14. p= pies the club made
60= (p+4)/5
multiply both sides by 5 to cancel the denominator
300=p+4
-4 -4
p= 296
the club made 296 pies
Step-by-step explanation:
X^2 + y^2 can be replaced by r^2 to obtain the polar equation equivalent to x^2 + y^2 = 5. Thus, r^2 = 5, and r = sqrt(5). That's all that's necessary. No matter what the angle is, r will always be sqrt(5).
A number less than twenty-five is equal to three.
Try to convert as many things into words as possible.

He did not walk 1/2 a mile. Because it's a round-trip, it's technically 2 miles long. so, in the end, he did not walk 1/4 of the trip. Hope this helps :)
When you have ratios and some unknowns,you can create complex fractions from them.Bring them to the same denominator and solve for X.
