If each number were multiplied by four, their sum would be 172. What are the two numbers?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: There are a lot of choices for the two numbers; this is because no other condition has been placed on the numbers to pinpoint the exact numbers required.

x = 1st number
y = 2nd number

The equation would be:
4(x+y) = 172

4(x+y)/4 = 172/4
x + y = 43

If we get the value of x. then, x = 43 - y
Substitute x by its value

43 -y + y = 43
43 = 43
y = 0

If y = 0 then x = 43 to get the sum of 43

x y     x + y     4x 4y 4x + 4y
43   0     43   172   -   172

When you roll a cube once, the smallest number it can show is 1, and the biggest one is 6. So when you roll it twice, the smallest possible sum of both results is 2, and the biggest one is 12. . . . . . Just like list 'b' .

17y = 85; y= 5

Im not sure?

Answers

17y = 85
y = 85 / 17
y = 5

Fear not, you are correct!

17y = 85

To solve this question, you must divide 17 on each side of the equal mathematical sign to isolate the variable on the left side. 85 ÷ 17 is 5. Therefore, y = 5. Your answer is correct.

What does x equal in this equation

Answers

3ax + b = c

subtract b from each side

3ax +b-b = c-b

3ax =c-b

divide each side by 3a

3ax/3a = (c-b)/3a

x = (c-b)/3a
