5 x 7 is 35
3 x 7 is 21
___________
So the answer is 35:21 .

Solve for the indicated variable.

s = p + g/h for g.

Answers

Answer:

g = h(s-p)

Step-by-step explanation:

find the variable of interest — It is in the numerator of one of two terms on the right side of the equation
subtract every term on that side not containing the variable — subtract p to get s-p = g/h
multiply by the inverse of the coefficient of the variable of interest — the coefficient is 1/h, so we multiply by h to get ... h(s-p) = g
rearrange to the desired form. Here, it is probably OK to leave the parentheses and to simply put g on the left

g = h(s -p)

Answer:

(s-p)*h =g

Step-by-step explanation:

s = p + g/h

Subtract p from each side

s-p = p=p + g/h

s-p = g/h

Multiply by h

(s-p) *h =g/h *h

(s-p)*h =g

A garden table and a bench cost $985 combined. The garden table costs $35 more than the bench. What is the cost of the bench?

Answers

let the cost price of bench be x
then cost price of garden table is x+35

total cost = x + x+35
985 = 2x +35
985 -35÷2 =x
425 =×
then the total cost of bench is 425 and garden is 460

985-35=950, 950÷2=475, 475+35=510, 510 and 475
