Answer:
x = - 9, x = 0, x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x(x - 7)(x + 9) = 0 ← in standard form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x = 0 ⇒ x = 0
x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7
x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9
Answer: 4.1
Step-by-step explanation:
30% as a decimal is 0.3
Multiply 780 by 0.3
780(0.3)=234 female doctors
Answer:
<h3>
44</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
z - some integer
2z - first given even integer (the smaller one)
2z+2 - even integer consecutive to 2z (the larger one)
2(2z) - twice the smaller number
2(2z) - 40 - the number 40 less than twice the smaller number
2(2z) - 40 = 2z + 2
4z - 40 = 2z + 2
2z = 42
2z+2 = 42+2 = 44
check:
2(2z)-40 = 2(42)-40 = 84-40 = 44
Answer:
19 birds
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I wrote my two equations:
5.5x +8.5y = 291.5
x + y = 41
Next, I got the variable y by itself in the second equation. Subtract x to get y = -x + 41. Then, I substituted what y equaled into the first equation. It should look like this: 5.5x + 8.5(-x+41) = 291.5. Distribute 8.5 to get 5.5x -8.5x + 348.5 = 291.5. Subtract 5.5x and 8.5x to get -3x. It should look like this: -3x + 348.5= 291.5. Subtract 348.5 from 291.5 to get -57. Now, you should have -3x = -57. Divide -3 from both sides, to get x = 19. So, there are 19 birds. If you want to go even further, 41-19= 22, which means there are 22 cats. Hope this helped!
