Answer:
<em>Beck actually caught 45 fish</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
We call the following variables:
x = number of fish Ally caught
y = number of fish Beck caught
They caught a total of 75 fish, thus:
x + y = 75 [1]
If Ally had caught twice as much fish as she actually did, and Beck had caught three times as many fish as he actually did, then Ally would have caught 75 fewer fish than Beck, thus:
3y = 2x + 75 [2]
From [1]:
x = 75 - y [3]
Substituting in [2]:
3y = 2(75 - y) + 75
Operating:
3y = 150 - 2y + 75
Simplifying:
5y = 225
Dividing by 5:
y = 45
Beck actually caught 45 fish
8 < 2b
8/2 < b
4 < b
2b + 15 < 5
2b < 5 - 15
2b < -10
b < -10/2
b < -5
answer is : b > 4 or b < -5
<span>The <u>correct answers</u> are:
x=-3 and x=-8.
Explanation<span>:
We can first write this in standard form, ax</span></span>²<span><span>+bx+c=0. To do this, we will add 11x to both sides:
x</span></span>²<span><span>+24+11x=-11x+11x
x</span></span>²<span><span>+11x+24=0.
Now we can factor this. Look for factors of c, 24, that sum to b, 11. Factors of 24 are:
1 and 24 (sum 25)
2 and 12 (sum 14)
3 and 8 (sum 11)
4 and 6 (sum 10).
The factors we need are 3 and 8, since they sum to 11. This gives us factored form:
(x+3)(x+8)=0.
Using the zero product property, we know that in order to have a product of 0, one or both of the factors must be 0. This means we have:
x+3=0 or x+8=0.
Solving the first equation:
x+3-3=0-3
x=-3.
Solving the second equation:
x+8-8=0-8
x=-8.</span></span>
