set up an equation for this.  x will be the score of the losing team.  x+2x=96.  Then solve for x.  3x=96.  x=96/3 x=32.  So the losing team got 32 points and the winning team got 64

562 ÷ Choose... = 14 R2
Zolol [24]

Answer:

7868

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒ This can be written algebraically (with a variable <em>x</em>) as:

562 ÷ x = 14

⇒ Convert the division as a fraction:

\frac{562}{x} = 14

⇒ Multiply both sides by 562 to get rid of the fraction and to isolate the variable <em>x</em>:

562 · \frac{562}{x} = 14 · 562

⇒ Simplify:

x = 7868

<u>Answer:</u> 7868

<em></em>

<em>Hope this helps!</em> :)

Solve using quadratic formula<br> 6x^2-x=2
Nadya [2.5K]

6x^2-x=2\implies 6x^2-1x-2=0 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{quadratic formula} \\\\ \stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{6}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{-1}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-2}=0 \qquad \qquad x= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a}

x = \cfrac{ -(-1) \pm \sqrt { (-1)^2 -4(6)(-2)}}{2(6)}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{1+48}}{12} \\\\\\ x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{49}}{12}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm 7}{12}\implies x = \begin{cases} \frac{8}{12}\to &\frac{2}{3}\\[1em] -\frac{6}{12}\to &-\frac{1}{2} \end{cases}

Express 1400 as a product of its prime factors in index form
exis [7]

Answer:

2^3 X5^2 X7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the number: 1400

A number is said to be prime when it can only be divided by 1 and itself.

We can express 1400 as a product of its prime numbers by gradually decomposing it into smaller units.

1400=14X100\\14=2X7\\100=10X10=2X5X2X5\\$Therefore:\\1400=2 X 7 X 2 X 5 X 5 X 5\\Reorganising\\1400=2 X 2 X 2 X 5 X 5 X 7\\Therefore, 1400 expressed as a product of its prime factors is:\\1400=2^3 X5^2 X7
