Answer:
2:1
Step-by-step explanation:
because 60 split in half is 30
and 30 split in half is 15
then if you divide both numbers by 5 then you get 6:3
6:3 is equivalent to 2:1
sorry im a little late, hope this helped though.
You can write two equations using the given information:
.. L = W +8
.. L * W = 609
Using substitution, you get a quadratic.
.. (W +8) * W = 609
.. W^2 +8W -609 = 0
Not surprisingly, you're looking for factors of 609 that differ by 8.
.. 609 = 1*609 = 3*203 = 7*87 = 21*29
The last two are the factors of interest.
.. (W +29)(W -21) = 0
The width of the rectangle is 21 feet, the length is 29 feet.
_____
Sometimes it is easier to work with the average dimension. Here, let that be x. Then you have
.. (x +4)(x -4) = 609
.. x^2 -16 = 609
.. x^2 = 625 = 25^2 . . . . . . . one of your memorized math facts
So, the dimensions are
.. 25 +4 = 29 by 25 -4 = 21, that is, 29 ft by 21 ft.
Answer:
He can buy 3 plants
Step-by-step explanation:
$27 is the total amount of money he can spend, if each plant costs $9 the equation would be like this:
9x = 27
Divide 27 by 9 because division is the opposite operation to multiplication
x = 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - x ,
3- x , 12 = G (x+9, 7)
-3
x , 12. = G (x 9
-3 = 6
x,12 = G (x+6 , 7)
-6. -6
x , 6 = x, 7
F(6) G(7) - i believe
