Use algebra.
Let the number of stickers each had in the beginning = x stickers.
Ray lost 10 we represent this by
x - 10 ( = no. stickers he has now)
Tom bought 200 so the number of stickers he now has
= x + 200
Rays has 1/4 as much as Tom so we can now create the equation
1/4(x + 200) = x - 10
Soling for x:-
1/4 x + 50 = x - 10
60 = 3/4 x
x = 60 * 4/3 = 80
Answer they had 80 stickers at first.
Step-by-step explanation:
√a is defined only when a >= 0.
Therefore for √4x * √(x + 2) to be defined, both 4x and x + 2 must be non-negative.
When 4x >= 0, x >= 0.
When x + 2 >= 0, x >= -2.
x >= 0 and x >= -2, therefore we have x >= 0. (D)
Answer:
1. D
2. B
3. C
4. A
Step-by-step explanation:
just know when the sentence says "each" or "per" next to a number, there need to be an x next to it.
In other words, I kinda just winged it :P
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 3:4, 6:8, 9,12
So 12:15 is the same thing as 12/15 you need to simplify so 12 devided by 2 is 4 and 15 divided by 3 is 5 so question to is 4:5
