Which expression is equivalent to -51 - ( -60 ) ?
A. 51 - 60
B. 60 + 51
C. -60 + ( -51 )
D. -51 + 60

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation: If Caleb starts with 4 and subtracts 6, he'll get -2. -2 times 2, equals -4. If he starts with 4 and subtracts 8, he'll again end up with -4, meaning the original number is 4!

4-6= (-2)

-2*2= (-4)

4-8= (-4)

========================================================

Explanation:

Let x and y be two positive whole numbers. They may or may not be equal.

The first bag has the ratio of red to blue as 3:5, which scales up to 3x:5x after multiplying both parts by x. We have 3x red and 5x blue.

The second bag has the ratio 3:2 which scales up to 3y:2y. This bag has 3y red and 2y blue.

We can make a handy table to keep track of all the expressions

[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}\cline{1-3}\text{ } & \text{Red} & \text{Blue}\\ \cline{1-3}\text{bag 1} & 3x & 5x\\ \cline{1-3}\text{bag 2} & 3y & 2y\\ \cline{1-3}\end{array}[/tex]

Based on that, we can then say:

Effectively, I added down along each column of that table.

Divide the two expressions for R and B to lead to the fraction 11/9, which is directly from the ratio 11:9

So,

(total red)/(total blue) = 11/9

R/B = 11/9

(3x+3y)/(5x+2y) = 11/9

---------------------

Let's cross multiply and then solve for y

(3x+3y)/(5x+2y) = 11/9

9(3x+3y) = 11(5x+2y)

27x+27y = 55x+22y

27y-22y = 55x-27x

5y = 28x

y = 28x/5

y = (28/5)x

y = 5.6x

We'll keep this in mind for later.

---------------------

Now let:

Recall that we had 3x red and 5x blue for the first bag. That means we have 3x+5x = 8x marbles in the first bag. Therefore, F = 8x.

Also, we had 3y red and 2y blue for the second bag.

So we have S = 3y+2y = 5y

Then we can apply further substitution to say

S = 5y

S = 5(5.6x) .... plug in y = 5.6x

S = 28x

---------------------

In short,

for some positive whole number x. We don't have enough info to pin down what x is exactly; however, it doesn't really matter. This is because the x variable will cancel when dividing F over S

F/S = (8x)/(28x) = 8/28 = 2/7

The fraction 2/7 leads directly to the final answer of the ratio 2:7

In other words, the ratio 8x:28x simplifies fully to 2:7 after dividing both parts by 4x.

The ratio between the total marbles of the first bag and the second bag is 2:7.

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Example:

2x + 4 = 9 is an equation.

We have,

x marbles in the first bag.

red marbles = 3x

blue marbles = 5x

y marbles in the second bag.

red marbles = 3y

blue marbles = 2y

Now,

Total red marbles in both bags.

3x + 3y = 11 _____(1)

3x = 11 - 3y

x = (11 - 3y) / 3

Total blue marbles in both bags.

5x + 2y = 9 ______(2)

From (1) and (2) we get,

Multiply 2 in (1).

6x + 6y = 22

6y = 22 - 6x _____(3)

Multiply 3 in (2)

15x + 6y = 27 ______(4)

Putting (3) in (4)

15x + 22 - 6x = 27

9x = 27 - 22

9x = 5

x = 5/9

Now,

x = 5/9 in (3)

6y = 22 - 6(5/9)

6y = 22 - 10/3

6y = (66 - 10)/3

y = 56/18

y = 28/9

Now,

First bag.

Red marbles = 3x = 3 x 5/9 = 5/3

Blue marbles = 5x = 5 x 5/9 = 25/9

Total marbles = 5/3 + 25/9 = (15 + 25)/9 = 40/9

Second bag.

Red marbles = 3y = 3 x 28/9 = 28/3

Blue marbles = 2y = 2 x 28/9 = 56/9

Total marbles = 28/3 + 56/9 = (84 + 56)/9 = 140/9

Now,

The ratio between the total marbles of the first bag and the second bag.

= 40 :140

= 4:14

= 2:7

Thus,

The ratio is 2:7.

Answer:

x = 31 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

- Isolate x by multiplying 2/3 on each side, cancelling out the one of its original placement

- You can't divide by a fraction, so KCF (Keep Change Flip):

      x = 21 * 3/2

      = 63/2 or 31 1/2

Answer:

1) 6 & 2)12

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the equations backwards-

1) Subtract 6 from 36, and then divide by 5.

36 = 6 + 5x

(36 - 6)/5 = x

x = 6

2) Subtract 7 from 43, and then divide by 3.

43 = 7 + 3y

(43 - 7)/3 = y

y = 12

Answer:

2.25

Explanation

2/3 can be made into 4/6 then added to 5/6

Grab 5/6 and add it to 3/4, we do this by making them have the same bottom number (denominator) so we multiply 9/6 (4/6 + 5/6) by 2 (both top and bottom number) so now we have 18/12 + 4/6 so now we can make 4 be 12 by multiplying it by 3, but we need to do that to the top number as well to make it balanced, so now we have 18/12 + 9/12 and we get 27/12 or 2.25.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sf 2x+4=3(x-4)[/tex]

[tex]\sf 2x+4=3x-12[/tex]

[tex]\sf 2x+4-4=3x-12-4[/tex]

[tex]\sf 2x=3x-16[/tex]

[tex]\sf 2x-3x=3x-16-3x[/tex]

[tex]\sf -x=-16[/tex]

[tex]\sf \cfrac{-x}{-1}=\cfrac{-16}{-1}[/tex]

[tex]\sf x=16[/tex]

solve the equation below :-

2x+4=3(x-4)

x = 16

=> 2x+4 = 3(x-4)

=> 2x+4 = 3x-12

=> 2x+4 - 4 = 3x-12 - 4 (Subtract 4 on both the sides)

=> 2x = 3x-16

=> 2x-3x = -16

=> -x = -16

=> -x/-1 = -16/-1

=> x = 16

Answer:

y =47.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First eliminate the fractions by multiplying through by the LCM of 7 and 3 which is 21:

21* 6[y-2]/7-21*12 = 21*2[y-7]/3

18(y - 2) - 252 = 14(y - 7)

18y -36 - 252 = 14y - 98

18y - 14y = -98 + 36 + 252

4y = 190

y = 190/4

y = 47.5.
