Began by dividing 850 by 1, then 2, then 3, and so on, and I made a list of the whole numbers.
They were 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 25, 34, 50, 85, 170, 425, and 850
By inspection, the two smallest numbers which when multiplied together yielded 850 were 25 and 34.
Answer:3(7n+6)(3
-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have similar triangles so
12/x = (12+78)/(x+13)
We can skip some algebra by doing the ratio on the pieces. We'll show it works at the end.
12/x = 78/13
x = 12(13)/78 = 2
We check
12/2 = 6
(12+78)/(2+13) = 90/15 = 6, good
Answer: x=2
Answer:
x > 4
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 2 > 30
Subtract 2 from each side
7x + 2-2 > 30-2
7x > 28
Divide each side by 7
7x/7 > 28/7
x > 4
4|y-9| > 36
Two equations:
4(y-9)>36 then y-9>8 then y>17
4(y-9)<-36 then y-9<-8 then y<1
So, the solution is y<1 or y>17
0.5|x+2| > 6
Two equations:
0.5(x+2) > 6 then 0.5x+1>6 then x>10
0.5(x+2) < -6 then 0.5x+1<-6 then x<-14
So, the solution is: x<-14 or x>10
