30 lemon candies he give his friend.

It is given that a boy had 320 candies. There were 2 flavors. 7/16 were orange flavor and the rest were lemon. He gave his friend 30 orange candies and some lemon ones.

320 (7/16)  =   140  were orange

320 - 140  =  180  were lemon

Let x be the number of lemon ones he gave  away

So,

[ 140 - 30 ]  / [ 180 - x ] =  11/15

110  =  (11/15) ( 180 - x )

(15/11) (110)  = 180 - x

150  = 180  - x

x = 180  - 150  =   30

For the following pair of functions, find (f+g)(x) and (f-g)(x).
ch4aika [34]

Given:

The functions are

f(x)=4x^2+7x-5

g(x)=-9x^2+4x-13

To find:

The functions (f+g)(x) and (f-g)(x).

Solution:

We know that,

(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)

(f+g)(x)=4x^2+7x-5-9x^2+4x-13

(f+g)(x)=(4x^2-9x^2)+(7x+4x)+(-5-13)

(f+g)(x)=-5x^2+11x-18

And,

(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)

(f-g)(x)=(4x^2+7x-5)-(-9x^2+4x-13)

(f+g)(x)=4x^2+7x-5+9x^2-4x+13

(f+g)(x)=(4x^2+9x^2)+(7x-4x)+(-5+13)

(f-g)(x)=13x^2+3x+8

Therefore, the required functions are (f+g)(x)=-5x^2+11x-18

and (f-g)(x)=13x^2+3x+8.

Factor the following problems<br><br> -13=-4a-2b+c<br> 3=4a+2b+c<br> 5=16a+4b+c<br><br> Please Help!
Pie
1) -13 = -4a - 2b + c
 -13 = -2(2a + b) + c

2) 3 = 4a + 2b +c
  3 = 2(2a + b) + c

3) 5 = 16a + 4b + c
5 = 4(4a + b) + c
