Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
"a certain whole number" is a number that we don't know, so pick a variable, let's use n
"Twice" means two times, so we'll use 2n for this.
"subtracted from" means the 2n will be AFTER the minus sign.
____ - 2n
What goes in front? "3 times the square of the number" 3n^2
Now we have 3n^2 - 2n
Lastly, we see the result is 133. So this gives us:
3n^2 - 2n = 133 To solve, subtract 133 from both sides of the equation.
3n^2 -2n - 133 = 0 Next FACTOR.
(3n + 19)(n - 7) = 0
3n+19=0 and n-7=0
n=-19/3 and n=7
Since we are looking for a whole number choose n=7
Answer:
there is no options but anything that doesnt equal 1/2 esstentially because 4/8 is the same as 1/2
14 hours = $112
1 hour = 112 ÷ 14 = $8

Answer:
D) 5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose there are 30 girls at the school. Then the proportions tell you that 12 of them study music, and 5 of them study both music and dance.
Then 5 of the 12 girls who study music also study dance. That fraction is 5/12.
_____
We chose 30 because it is the least common multiple of the denominators of the fractions (2/5, 3/5, 1/6) in the problem statement.
Of course, you know that 2/5·30 = 12, and 1/6·30 = 5.
