you pretty much h just multiply both the first part of the parentheses by the number outside, then the second :)
Answer:
His age is 7 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Rehman's present age be x years.
1 / (x - 3) + 1 /(x + 5) = 1/3
Multiply through by the LCD 3(x - 3)(x + 5):
3(x + 5) + 3(x - 3) = (x + 5)(x - 3)
3x + 15 + 3x - 9 = x^2 + 2x - 15
x^2 + 2x - 6x - 30 + 9 = 0
x^2 - 4x - 21 = 0
(x - 7)(x + 3) = 0
x = 7 (answer).
Answer: $7.90
Step-by-step explanation:
When we see how much she spent on the total cost of renting skates, getting in, and getting hot chocolate, we can see that she is going to subtract all of that from the total cost.
$15.00 - 2.25 = 12.75
12.75 - 2.15 = 10.60
10.60 - 1.35 = 9.25
9.25 - 1.35 = 7.90 remaining
We know that she payed 2.25 to get in, 2.15 for skate rental, and 1.35 for each hot chocolate she purchased which in this case is 2. We need to subtract all of this from 15 and get the final answer
Number of adults = 264
Number of children= 127
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of adults be......x
Let the number of children be.....y
The total number of people that used the public swimming pool is given as 391. This means
x+y=391
The total cost per the receipt is : $752.75
This means, 2.25 x+ 1.25 y = 752.75
The two equations are;
x+y=391 ...........(i)
2.25 x+ 1.25 y = 752.75...........(ii)
Making the x variable equal to eliminate x
2.25x + 2.25 y = 879.75
2.25x + 1.25 y = 752.75
Apply subtraction as
1.00 y = 127.00
y=127
Use the value of y in equation (i)
x+y=391
x+127=391
x=391-127=264
Number of adults = 264
Number of children= 127
