Answer: x > 486
Explanation:
We have some number x and we divide that by 18. The result is larger than 27. To find possible values for x, we need to undo what is happening to x. The opposite of division is multiplication. We multiply both sides by 18 to cancel out the "18" on the left side, which will isolate x to get it to its own side.
This is what the steps look like
x/18 > 27
18*( x/18 ) > 18*27 .... multiplying both sides by 18
x > 486 ... note the 18's cancel on the left side
So this means x is some number greater than 486.
Answer:mick share is £4 while Sharon share is £8
Step-by-step explanation:
Money to be shared=£12
Mick : sharon=2:4
Sum of ratio=2+4=6
Mick share=2/6 x 12
Mick share=(2x12)/6
Mick share=24/6
Mick share=4
Sharon share=4/6 x 12
Sharon share=(4x12)/6
Sharon share=48/6
Sharon share=48/6
Sharon share=8
Answer:
7500 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
t = tonnes
I am going to assume that x2 = x squared
So: X^2 + 3x -40
= (X+8)(X-5)=0
X+8 = 0
X= - 8
The other solution is X -5 = 0
X = 5
Therefore the solution set is {-8, 5}
