Let's use the variable, x, to represent the unknown number.
We can represent the words, "the sum of a number and six, as : x + 6
The words, " 2 less than the sum", can be represented as: x + 6 - 2
The words, "the product of the number and three", can be written as: 3x
Now create an equation using "is equal to" to join the expressions:
x + 6 -2 = 3x
Now combine like terms and use inverse operations to solve for x:
x + 6 -2 = 3x
x + 4 = 3x
x + 4 - x = 3x - x
4 = 2x
4/2 = 2x/2
2 = x
The unknown number is 2
A rectangle has a length that is three times the width . The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 feet.what is the area of the rectangle
Answer:
The area is 15 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
So you are going to need two different equations-
l = w(3)
2l + 2w = 40
Insert the first equation into the second-
2(3w) + 2w = 40
Simplify this equation-
6w + 2w = 40
8w = 40
Divide both sides by 5
w = 5
Solve first equation
l = 5(3)
l = 15
Then find the area-
5 x 15 = 75
Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8).
Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal
line.
Answer:
The equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8) is [tex]\mathbf{y=-8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to write the equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8).
We need to write answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal line.
The general equation of point-slope form is: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]
where m is slope of the line.
To find the slope, we can use formula: [tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
We have [tex]x_1=7,y_1=-8,x_2=2, y_2=-8[/tex]
Putting values and finding slope:
[tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{-8-(-8)}{2-7}\\Slope=\frac{-8+8}{-5}\\Slope=\frac{0}{-5}\\Slope=0[/tex]
So, we find the slope : m = 0
Now, using the point (7,-8) and slope m =0, the required equation is:
[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-(-8)=0(x-7)\\y+8=0\\y=-8[/tex]
So, the equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8) is [tex]\mathbf{y=-8}[/tex]

?
What percent is represented by the shaded area?
%
Answer: 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
The shaded portion is half of 100
Answer: 50%
Step-by-step explanation: Since the tape diagram in total represents 100%, and half of the tape diagram is shaded, this means 50% is shaded.

A pizza shop sells three sizes of pizza, and they track how often each size gets ordered along with how much they profit from each size. Let X represent the shop's profit on a randomly selected pizza. Here's the probability distribution of XXX along with summary statistics:
Small Medium Large
X= Profit($) 4 8 12
P(X) 0.18 0.50 0.32
Mean μx= $8.56
Standard Deviation σx ≈ 2.77
The company is going to run a promotion where customers get $2 off any size pizza. Assume that the promotion will not change the probability that corresponds to each size. Let Y represent their profit on a randomly selected pizza with this promotion. What are the mean and standard deviation of Y?
Answer:
μy = $6.56 ; σy = 2.77
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data :
Mean μx= $8.56
Standard Deviation σx ≈ 2.77
Profit, Y on pizza with current promo :
Price off on pizza = $2
Y = x - 2
μx = E(x) = $8.56
μy = μ(x - 2)
μy = μx - $2
μy = $8.56 - $2
μy = $6.56
For the standard deviation of y
σx ≈ 2.77
σy = σ(x - 2)
σy = σx - 2
Constants are treated as 0 for standard deviation
σy = 2.77
Daniel's age is 15% of
Sarah's. Luke's age is 75% of
Sarah's and 300% of Daniel's.
When they added their ages,
the total was 141. How old is
Rachel?
Answer:
27 years oldStep-by-step explanation:
Full question isDaniel's age is 15% of Sara's. Luke's age is 75% of Sara's and Rachel's is 300% of Daniel's. When they added their ages, the total was 141. How old is Rachel? SolutionDaniel = d, Sara = s, Luke = l, Rachel = r
We get below relations:
d = 0.15sl = 0.75sr = 3d ⇒ r = 3*0.15s ⇒ r = 0.45sSum of ages:
d + s + l + r = 141Substitute and solve for s:
0.15s + s + 0.75s + 0.45s = 1412.35s = 141s = 141/2.35s = 60Rachel's age is:
r = 0.45*60 = 27What is the value of x in the equation 8x – 2y = 48, when y = 4?

Ms. Tompkins had an amount of money in the bank. After she deposited $100, she had at least $550 in the bank. how much money did Ms. Tompkins have in the bank originally?
i need explanation pls , ty
Answer:
at least $450
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount she has in bank before depositing be x
If she had at least $550 in the bank after depositing, then;
x + 100 ≥ 550
Get the initial amount in bank
x ≥ 550 - 100
x ≥ 450
Hence the amount she has in the bank originally was at least $450

Answer:
-3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Flip the equation so it's 0 - 3.5 which would give you -3.5
Answer:
- 3 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Any number combined with it's opposite will make zero. The opposite of a number is the same number with it's sign flipped. For example, the opposite of 5 is -5, and the opposite of -3 is 3. If I combine any number, for example 10, with it's opposite, in this case -10, it will make zero. (10 - 10 = 0.) Hope this helps!

Answer:
[tex]x=45.57^{\circ}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Hypotenuse, H = 10
Base = 7
We need to find the value angle x. The relation between Hypotenuse, Base and the angle x is given by :
[tex]\cos\theta=\dfrac{\text{Base}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{7}{10}\\\\\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{7}{10})\\\\\theta=45.57^{\circ}[/tex]
So, the value of x is [tex]45.57^{\circ}[/tex].

Sarah has 782 stickers in her sticker book. It took 8 stickers to fill one page. She filled each page before putting stickers on another page. How many full pages of stickers does Sarah have
Answer:
97
Step-by-step explanation:
if there are a total of 782 stickers and 8 stickers fill one page the number of full pages can be found by dividing 782 by 8. Doing this gives us 97.75, but since the question is asking us about full pages the answer if 97 full pages of stickers.

The aquarium has a scale model of a great white shark for sale in their gift shop. If the scale of the model is 2 in. : 7 ft, what is the actual length of the shark if the shark is 4in?
Answer:
14ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the scale is 2in : 7ft, so you would do 7x2 which gets you to 14.
(You would do 7x2 because 4 in/2 in = 2in, that's where the 2 comes from, and 7 because 7ft is part of the scale.)
