Cyclone cleared leaves from the same number of yards each day for 5 days. Then on day 6, he cleared the leaves from 8 more yards. He cleared 133 yards in all. How many yards did Cyclone clear the first day?

20.83 yard

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate Cubic Yards

Calculate your area

Calculate your volume: Multiply area times the depth to get volume in cubic feet

Calculate your cubic yards: Divide cubic feet by 27 to convert to cubic yards and this is your answer

Where ft2 = square foot, ft3 = cubic foot, yd3 = cubic yard

Total yards = 5[x] + x + 8  

Solve

133 = 6x + 8

6x = 125

x = 20.83 yard

Therefore, the Cyclone cleared 20.83 yards on the first day.

20.83 yard

Step-by-step explanation:

5[x] + x + 8

133 = 6x + 8

6x = 125

x = 20.83 yard

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
