The sum of a number divided by 5 and 2 is equal to 6 put it in an equation

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Since we are talking about a "sum", we can expect an equation with at least 2 addends. To know which parts of the of the word problem are your addends, it is necessary to take out the terms that are not to be added. Looking at the word problem, "6" is the sum, so therefore it should not be included as an addend. With "6" out of the way, we can now split the word problem into the 2 addends. One being the "number divided by 5" and the other being "2". Writing this in mathematical equation form, it would be:

Let: x = the unknown number

(X/5) + 2 = 6

Additionally, solving for the value of x, since X/5 is one term, it is necessary to isolate that. We can do this by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation such that:

(X/5) + 2 - 2 = 6 - 2
(X/5) = 4

Multiplying both sides by 5
(X/5) * 5 = 4 * 5
X = 20

Therefore your unknown number is 20

8a+a-3=6a-2a-3

Answers

8a+a-3=6a-2a-3\n\n9a-3=4a-3\ \ \ \ /+3\n\n9a-3+3=4a-3+3\n\n9a=4a\ \ \ \ /-4a\n\n9a-4a=4a-4a\n\n5a=0\ \ \ \ /:5\n\n5a:5=0:5\n\na=0
Ok so =>   8a + a -3 = 6a -2a -3
               9a - 3 = 4a -3
-3 on both sides is gone so 9a = 4a
                                 9a - 4a =0  => 5a = 0 so a=0

Q 30 Adam and his dad share the cost of the meal in the ratio of 2:3. Adams dad payed £52.20. What is the total cost of the meal.

Answers

Well, a ratio can be like a fraction. So, we find 2/3 of 52.2 which is 34.8.So, the sum is
34.8+52.2=87

Two angles of a quadrilateral are 79° and 154°. What is the sum of the other two angles?

Answers

Answer:

sum of other two angles = 127°

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the 4 interior angles in a quadrilateral is 360°

subtract the sum of the two given angles from 360° for sum of other two

sum of other two angles = 360° - (79 + 154)° = 360° - 233° = 127°

Morgan measures the capacity of a juice glass to be 12 fluid ounces. If she uses the glass to drink 4 glasses of water throughout the day, how many pints of water does morgan drink?

Answers

So,

Morgan drank 4 glasses of water out of a juice glass that contains 12 fluid ounces.  To find how many pints Morgan drinks, we need to multiply the number of glasses by the number of fluid ounces, convert from fl. oz. to cups, and convert from cups to pints.

4 * 12 = 48 fl. oz.

8 fl. oz. = 1 cup
48 fl. oz. = 6 cups

2 c. = 1 pt.
6 c. = 3 pt.

Morgan drink 3 pints of water.
approximately 3 liquid pints. (3.00005)
