Question
How do I solve for x if my equation is y = x - 3
Solution 1

Steps to solve:

y = x - 3

~Subtract x to both sides

y - x = x - x + (-3)

~Simplify

y - x = -3

~Subtract y to both sides

y - y - x = -3 - y

~Simplify

-x = -3 - y

~Divide x by -1 to both sides

-x/-1 = -3/-1 + (-y/-1)

~Simplify

x = 3 + y or x = y + 3

Best of Luck!

Solution 2

Answer:

x = y + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x-3\Rightarrow x-3=y\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\x-3+3=y+3\\\\x=y+3

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

The number of students that are shorter than 71 inches is 6, while the total number of students is 8. Therefore,  the percentage of these students who are shorter than 71 inches is,

Percentage = 6 /8 × 100%

                   = 0.75 × 100%

                   = 75%

Question
Part 1 out of 2 Write an expression for 6 times the square of a car's speed plus 6 times the car's speed minus 120. Use v for the car's speed. Do not factor the expression. The expression is Next
Solution 1

Answer:

The expression is 6v² + 6v - 120

Step-by-step explanation:

v = Car's speed

Let's write the expression for 6 times the square of a car's speed plus 6 times the car's speed  minus 120, this way:

6v² = 6 times the square of a car's speed

6v - 120 = 6 times the car's speed  minus 120

Now, let's add the operator (+):

6v² (6 times the square of a car's speed) + 6v - 120 (6 times the car's speed  minus 120)

The expression is 6v² + 6v - 120

Question
The sides of a rectangle are in the ratio 2:5. The perimeter of the rectangle is 70 cm. What is the width of the rectangle?
Solution 1

Width = 10cm

Length = 25cm

Explanation:

Given, width:length = 2:5

Let width = 2x ,

So, length = 5x

Perimeter of rectangle = 2x(length + width)

According to the question,

70cm = 2X(5x + 2x)\\70cm = 2X(7x)\\35cm = 7x\\x = 5cm

Hence,

Width = 10cm

Length = 25cm
