X + x + 2 = 14
2x + 2 = 14
2x = 12, x = 6
Solution: the smallest of the two integers is 6
Given:
nine 5 pound bags
distributed into 10-ounce bags
1 pound = 16 ounces
9 x 5 pounds = 45 pounds
45 pounds * 16 ounces/lbs = 45 * 16 oz = 720 ounces
720 ounces / 10 ounce bags = 720/10 = 72 bags.
The workers at the food pantry will be able to make 72 bags.
Answer:√-40=2√-10
Step-by-step explanation:Finding the factors of 40,we have ,√4×√-10=2×√-10=2√-10
Let Daniel's age be 'x' years , hence, Lisa's age is (x - 5) years. Let Grandma's age be 'y' = 54 years.
Hence,
x(x - 5) = 2/3 × y
x² - 5x = 2 × 54 years / 3
x² - 5x = 36 years
x² - 5x - 36 = 0
∆ = (-5)² - 4(1)(-36) = 25 + 144 = 169
√∆ = √169 = 13

x1 = (5+13)/2, x2 = (5-13)/2
x1 = 9, x2 = -4
Since, age can't be negative,
Daniel's age = x = 9 years.
