Hi!


So we need to know how many times 6 goes into 21.


6, 12, 18, 24

6 doesn't go into 21 evenly, so Johnny will have to pick between buying 18 pencils, or 24 pencils.


If Johnny buys 3 packages, 3 students won't have any pencils. Which means Johnny has to buy 4 packages.


Hope this helps! :)

The width of a rectangle is six meters less than three times its length. If the area of the rectangle is 105 square meters. what
Kipish [7]

Answer:

length = 7 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

l = length

w = width

w = 3×l - 6

l×w = 105 m²

l×(3×l - 6) = 105

3×l² - 6×l = 105

l² - 2×l = 35

l² - 2×l - 35 = 0

solution of a squared equation is

(-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

a = 1

b = -2

c = -35

(2 ± sqrt(4 - 4×-35))/2 = (2 ± sqrt(4+140))/2 =

(2 ± sqrt(144))/2 = (2 ± 12)/2 = 1 ± 6

l1 = 1+6 = 7 meters

l2 = 1-6 = -5 meters, which did not make any sense for an actual object.

so, l = 7 meters remains.

Find the value of x and find whether the angles or supplementary or complementary.
Alborosie

Answer:

1) x = 31

2) Both angles add up to be a supplementary angle (an angle who's sum is 180° altogether).

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Since both angles add up to be a supplementary,

→ equation 1 + equation 2 = 180

→ (3x + 25) + (2x) = 180

Solving by applying algebra will give the answer "x = 31".

Hope this helps!
