Answer:
1. x= 8
2. x= 6
3. x= 7
4. x= -8
Code: BECI
Step-by-step explanation:
7/8 = x/48
Cross multiply, which is: a/b = c/d ⇒ ad = bc
After cross multiplying, we get:
8x = 7(48)
8x = 336
Divide 8 on both sides
x = 42
Your final answer is B. 42<span>.</span>
Answer:
y = x + 53
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of flowers Jamal planted and y the number of flowers Heidi planted.
Jamal planted 53 fewer flowers than Heidi:
x = y - 53
Isolate the y.
x + 53 = y (Change the - sign to + sign when switching from different sides of an equation)
y = x + 53
You just have to set the denominator to zero and solve for x
