Answer:
b = 
Step-by-step explanation:
b +
= 1
← change to an improper fraction
b +
= 
Multiply through by 12 ( the LCM of 3 and 4 ) to clear the fractions
12b + 8 = 15 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
12b = 7 ( divide both sides by 12 )
b = 
Answer:
The answer is B, I just took the test.
Step-by-step explanation:
let l = lance, and a = alex.
so: l + a = 70
and l = 4a
Putting the value for l in the first equation:
4a +a = 70
5a = 70
a = 14.
So Alex has 14 pencils. And Lance has (70-14) 56 pencils.
And if each child gets half of Alex' pencils, then each child will have 7 pencils.
Answer: 2538
Step-by-step explanation:
12*21/2
126
126/1*41/2
2538
We have the following expression:
(x- (5/2)) ^ 2 = (13/4)
Let's rewrite the given expression:
x ^ 2 - 5x + 25/4 = (13/4)
x ^ 2 - 5x + 25/4 - 13/4 = 0
x ^ 2 - 5x + 12/4 = 0
x ^ 2 - 5x + 3 = 0
Answer:
the original equation given to Sam could have been:
x ^ 2 - 5x + 3 = 0
