The question is probably incomplete. What i am assuming is that the person might ask for the previous ratio or the total number of pens and pencil in the drawer.
So if it is the previous ratio it obviously would be 47 - 5 : 17 -3 so 42 : 14 and in case he or she is asking for the total number of pens and pencils in the drawer before so they were 42 + 14 hence 56.
Answer:
8. A
First step is to distribute - to 6x and 3. Next u want to combine like terms. So 2x^2-6x^2 = -4x^2. Next 4x - 6x = -2x. Again 9 + 3 = 12. Combine and u get -4x ^2 - 2x +12
9. C
First you add 4x to both sides. Then you subtract 55 leaving -45 greater than or equal to 9x. Then you divide by nine and you get -5 is greater than or equal to x
10. B
First you distribute 5 so 15 -3x < -2x +6. Next add 2 to both sides. Then subtract 15 leaving -3x < -9. Least divide by -3 and you get x > 3(the sign was swapped bc dividing by a negative number means it has to)
11. B
For this you could just distribute the equations and we on that 7•4=28. And 7•5=35. I'm this case both of the numbers have to be negative so 7 has to be negative as well
12. C
Distribute -2/3 and you get 9q^2-2q+14/3+5q^2
Then combine like terms and 9q^2+5q^2=14q^2. Order them and ur answer is 14q^2-2q+14/3

Answer: P(-7.38,-12.85)
Steps:
Draw the directed line in a chart, including points A and B.
Look for the x coordinate of P:
the distance |B-A| along the x coord is |0-(-16)|=16
we are looking for a proportion of 7/13 of that:
the x coord of P is 16*7/13 to the right of -16, or -16+8.62= -7.38
Look for y coordinate of P:
the distance |B-A| along the y coord is |-17-(-8)|=9
we are looking for a proportion of 7/13 of that:
the y coord of P is 9*7/13 down from -8, or -8-4.85= -12.85
so the point P is P(-7.38,12.85)
Answer:




Step-by-step explanation:
Use pythagorean's theorem to solve each pair individually.
The instructions say that you have the two sides (a and b) and you have to match it with their hypothenuse.

Plug this into the formula.

The square here eliminates the roots.
