Four friends are sharing a pizza. One friend eats half of the pizza. The other three friends equally divide the rest among themselves. What portion of the pizza does each of the other three friends receive?

Here we collect like terms together and solve for the unknown value of x.

7x-6=3x-26

Add 6 to both sides of the equation

7x-6+6=3x-26+6

7x=3x-20

Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation

7x-3x=-20

4x=-20

Divide both sides by 4

4x/-4=-20/4

x = -5

The value of x = -5

Here we are required to find the area of the square of sides 3.1 m. The square is a four-sided figure with each side equal and opposite sides making 90 degrees.

Area of the square =side*side

Side=3.1 m

Area of the square =3.1 m *3.1 m=9.61 m2

Note: 3.1 + 3.1 = 6.2 which is a wrong answer.

To find the net force, we choose east direction as positive and west as negative. From this, we can present the tag of war in the diagram below.

So, the force on the dog is -190 N and that of the girl is 165 N.

The net force is the sum of the two forces

The resulting force is negative, meaning it is in the west direction. Thus, the net force is 25 N to the west.

We can interpret ‘cannot exceed” as less than ‘<’. Therefore, in our inequality, the symbol < must be included. Now let’s convert the word problem into a mathematical inequality.

Money spent on supplies=s

Money spent on textbooks=t

Total money spent=money spent on supplies + money spent on textbooks

Total money spent = s+t

But the money spent cannot exceed $12,000. Then,

s+t <$12,000.
However the money spent can still be equal to $12000, as it has not exceeded it.

Therefore, therequired inequality is s + t <= $12,000.

We solve the problem by first finding the amount of gallons needed for the whole trip then find the cost of the gallon.

The car uses 1 gallon to cover 25 miles, which is same as:

Now, in 3000 miles, the car will use how many gallons of gasoline?

A trip of 3000 miles will need 120 gallons. And to find the cost of 120 gallons, we proceed as follows:

The family will spend $199.20 to drive for 3000 miles.

We extrapolate the values of a line between 10 and 15 on y-axis to meet the curve and drop another line from the intersection of the curve to meet the x-axis and read off the age of the car.

Now, let’s extrapolate in the following diagram

The intersection of the line and the x-axis is between 4 and 5 years. This means that the car is about 4.5 years old. From the options given, the age of the car is more than 3 years old.

A dependent variable is one that when another variable changes, it also changes. In our case, the insurance premium changes if the age, model, mileage of car changes. Thus, insurance premium is the dependent variable while the other three are independent variable.

We convert the given weight in pounds to ounces and find total weight. 1 pound=16 ounces, which we interpret as

Or

Use the second option to convert pounds to ounces

Now, we can ounces to ounces as: 48 oz + 5 oz= 53 oz

Therefore, 3 pounds, 5 ounces is equal to 53 oz

Percentages always add up to 100%. If we let x be the percent of graduates working for jobs unrelated to law, then

74%+3%+2%+x=100%

79%+x=100%

Subtract 79% from both sides of the equation

79%-79%+x=100%

x=100%-79%

x=21%

So, the number of graduates working for jobs unrelated to law is 21%.

In this problem, to find one side of the square garden, we use the calculator to find the square root of 13. Thus

Thus, the approximate side of a square garden is about 3.6 ft
