The least number of socks that rob can remove to guarantee he removed a pair of white socks without looking is15 socks
A=LW
192=(13+x)((9+x)
192=117+22x+x^2 (subtract 192 from both sides)
x^2+22x-75+0 (factor)
(x+25)(x-3)=0
so x=-25 or 3
Check work
since we are adding x it can only be the positive solution so x=3 so the new dimensions are:
L=13+3=16m
W=9+3=12
check: 16*12=192 so the answer is correct hope this helped
Using the graph that is included, look at the points given. For example (30, 3). There would be 30 vegetarian dishes and 3 steak dinners for a total of 33 meals. If that is plugged into the cost equation 20(30)+3(30) it would equal $690. The next point (33, 1) would cost 20(33) + 30(1) = $690 and but gives 34 meals. However, 34 vegetarian meals would only cost 20(34)=$680 and have 34 meals.
If both types of meals need to be purchased, 33 vegetarians and 1 steak. If only vegetarians are purchased, the cost is cheaper by $10.
