Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
9(x + 3) + 15x
9x + 27 + 15x ...combine like terms
24x + 27 <==
For x,
(32+x)/2=14
32+x=14*2
32+x=28
x=28-32
x=-4
For y,
(40+y)/2=26
40+y=26*2
40+y=52
y=52-40
y=12
Therefore coordinates of B(-4,12)

Step-by-step explanation:
A because it doesn't matter who gets chosen for the committee there is still going to be more girls than boys but it doesn't have to be a must and it's not B because it would be 3 girls and 2 boys
Solve:
"<span>twice the number minus three times the reciprocal of the number is equal to 1."
3(1)
Let the number be n. Then 2n - ------- = 1
n
Mult all 3 terms by n to elim. the fractions:
2n^2 - 3 = n. Rearranging this, we get 2n^2 - n - 3 = 0.
We need to find the roots (zeros or solutions) of this quadratic equation.
Here a=2, b= -1 and c= -3. Let's find the discriminant b^2-4ac first:
disc. = (-1)^2 - 4(2)(-3) = 1 + 24 = 25.
That's good, because 25 is a perfect square.
-(-1) plus or minus 5 1 plus or minus 5
Then x = ------------------------------ = --------------------------
2(2) 4
x could be 6/4 = 3/2, or -5/4.
You must check both answers in the original equation. If the equation is true for one or the other or for both, then you have found one or more solutions.</span>
