First subtract 8 from both sides
leaving you with x/2 = -20
Then multiply both sides by two to get rid of the denominator
which leaves you with x = -40
Answer:
m<1 and m<2 are obviously congruent so if m<2 is 25 then that means m<1 is also 25
12 pieces
3 pieces = 1 yard
Multiply 4 by 3 because the log is 4 yards long
That will give you 12 total pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, 1st number be x and 2nd number be y
Then,
equation 1
x = 16+y
equation 2
x + y = 120
or, y = 120 - x
now,
x = 16 + y
or, x= 16 + 120 - x (putting the value of y from equation 2 )
or, x + x = 136
or, 2x =136
or, x= 136/2
or, x =68
Then,
y = 120-x
or, y= 120- 68 (putting the value of x)
or, y= 52
Hence, the two numbers are 68 and 52.
