The sum of a number and three less than the number is sixteen. How do you write that in numbers

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Its: $x+(x-3)=16$

Start at the beginning
The sum of a number is $x+$ and three less than the number is $(x-3)$
Parentheses are mandatory; it is asking the number you get from $x-3$
Its asking for the sum so you would get $x+(x-3)$
In the very large dictionary of mathmatical terms, in this kind of problem, the word "is" means =.
The problem says "is sixteen"
So you would get $x+(x-3)=16$

If a train travels at 78 mph for 10 min, what is the distance traveled?

Answers

The distance traveled by train will be 78 mph will be 13 miles.

What is speed?

The distance covered by the particle or the body in an hour is called speed. It is a scalar quantity. It is the ratio of distance totime.

We know that the speed formula

Speed = Distance/Time

If a train travels at 78 mph for 10 minutes.

Convert the number of minutes into hours.

10 minutes = 10 / 60 hours

10 minutes = 1/6 hours

Then the distance traveled by train will be

78 = D / (1/6)

D = 78 / 6

D = 13 miles

The distance traveled by train will be 78 mph will be 13 miles.

The sum of two decimal numbers is 3.9 Their difference is 0.9,and their product is 3.6 What are the two numbers?

What is a numerical expression?

A numerical expression is an algebraic information stated in the form of numbers and variables that are unknown. Information can is used to generate numerical expressions.

Consider the numbers be: x and y

Given that sum of two decimal numbers is 3.9. Their difference is 0.9 and their product is 3.6

Then the system of equation;

x+y=3.9

x-y=0.9

Adding both the equation we get;

2x = 4.8

x = 2.4

Now for the value of y.

2.4+y=3.9

y=3.9 - 2.4

y = 1.5

Therefore, the two numbers are 2.4 and 1.5 respectively.

let numbers be: x and y

x+y=3.9
x-y=0.9

Adding both

2x = 4.8
x = 2.4

2.4+y=3.9
y=3.9 - 2.4
y = 1.5
