Answer:
8 pieces of paper
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the paper was cut into two, divide the half-pieces by 2 go get the amount of full-sized paper. And since Shanie got 2 more pieces of paper before she started, you subtract 2 from 10, which leaves you with 8 pieces of full-sized paper.
Answer:
p=-6
q=3
Step-by-step explanation:
5p-3q=-39
-2p-3q=3
Multiply the second equation by -1
2p +3q = -3
Add the first equation and the modified second equation
5p-3q=-39
2p +3q = -3
---------------------
7p = -42
Divide by 7
7p/7 = -42/7
p = -6
Now we can find q
2p +3q = -3
2(-6) +3q = -3
-12 +3q = -3
Add 12 to each side
-12+12 +3q = -3+12
3q = 9
Divide by 3
3q/3 = 9/3
q=3
Answer:
4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
We first write it in factor form.
4(x - 1)(x + 3) = 0
4(x^2 + 2x - 3) = 0
4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0 (answer).
4 + 3 + 2 = 9
18/9 = 2
3 x 2 = 6
Answer = 6
