Alex = 6x
Peter = x
6x = x + 50
5x = 50
x = 10
Alex = £60
Peter = £10
together = £70
14. 2x-1 = 0, x+7=0
x = 1/2, x = -7
15. x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0
(x + 5)(x - 2) = 0
x = -5, x = 2
16. x^2 - 25 = 0
(x-5)(x+5)
x = 5, x = -5
Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula, (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). In this case, there is a negative slope.
Start from point, (1, 9) and go to point (4, 8).
Use the formula:
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
Y2 = 8
Y1 = 4
X2 = 9
X1 = 1
(8 - 9)/(4 - 1) = -1/3
Therefore, the slope is -1/3

Answer: 110 square inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a rectangular box would be:
In this case, we know the volume, the length and the height, and we don't know the width, so we're going to isolate it:
Substituting the data:
This width is also the width of the top of the box, so the area of the top would be:
