There are no two numbers that multiply to 45 but add to -10.
This is because the only numbers that multiply to get 45 are 1x45, 3x15, 5x8. None of them can add to -10 even if you make some of the numbers negative instead.
If this is a factoring problem, you may have to use the quadratic equation instead.
Let's deconstruct the equation.
K x (1/8) = 7
You want to isolate K, so you multiply by 8 for both sides (since 8 x 1/8 = 1)
So, K = 7 x 8
K=56
Answer:
120 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 is 6 months and 6 years are 72 months.
Using the rule of three, 10 cm is to 6 months what x is for 72 months so
x = (72 * 10) / 6 = 120
She bought 54 child tickets and 19 adult tickets.
Step-by-step explanation:
No. of tickets purchased = 73
Cost of tickets = $771
Cost of one child ticket = $9
Cost of one adult ticket = $15
Let,
Child ticket = x
Adult ticket = y
According to given statement;
x+y=73 Eqn 1
9x+15y=771 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 9;

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2;

Dividing both sides by 6;

Putting y=19 in Eqn 1

She bought 54 child tickets and 19 adult tickets.

3/4 To find the slope of a line you need to do rise/run. you find two solid points meaning find two points are exactly on a intersection. Then you count up how much it needs to the point then count across to the next point
