Answer: see below
Step-by-step explanation
Let 2 + a = 11 x
Let 35 - b = 11 y
Where x and y are any unknown integer
subtract the two equations
- 33 + a + b = 11 (x+y)
a+ b = 11 (x+ y) +33
a+ b = 11 (x+y) + 3 (11)
a+ b = 11(x+ y+3)
Which proves that a+b is a factor of 11
Each friend will get 1.35 pounds of pecans.
To find this, simply divide 16.2 by 12 to find the weight of pecans everyone gets. Thus making 1.35 pounds of pecans the answer.
I hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
4x² + 11x - 3 = 0
(4x-1)(x+3) = 0
x = 1/4, -3
