They would need 34.125 tons of rations.
In order to find this, we first need to see how many pounds of rations a single soldier eats in a week. To do this, we take the total eaten in 3 weeks and divide by 3. Then we divide by the number of soldiers.
16,380/3 weeks= 5460 lbs per week
5460/520 soldiers = 10.5 lbs per soldier per week
Now we look to see how many soldiers we will have in total after adding. There are 520 to start and we add 780 to get 1300 total. Next we multiply that by the total per soldier per week.
10.5lbs per soldier per week * 1300 soldiers = 13,650lbs per week
Then we have to multiply by the 5 weeks that battalion will be there.
13,650lbs * 5 weeks = 68,250lbs of rations or 24.125 tons.
Answer:
(7x-1)(x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
7x^2 - 22x + 3
The factors have to add to -22, but multiply to equal 3. But since the "a" value has a number on it, you have to use it too.
(7x +/- [n1]) ( x +/- [n2]) = 7x^2 - 22x + 3
Since the two numbers multiply to a positive value, they have to have the same sign. (7x-1) (x-3) works to produce the expression when it's foiled.
You didn't show us much of the page with the question on it,
so we can't be sure of exactly what you're working on in math.
If you're working with things like squares and rectangles, then
'L' and 'W' are often used to represent the Length and Width of
shapes drawn on paper, or even Length and Width of 3D objects
like blocks or boxes.
