Answer:

x=75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Put the side of the small triangle over the side of the large triangle.

42           50

------ = ----------

42+63        50+x

42           50

------ = ----------

105          50+x

Using cross products

42(50+x) = 50*(105)

2100+42x = 5250

Subtract 2100 from each side

2100-2100+42x = 5250-2100

42x =3150

Divide by 42

42x/42 = 3150/42

x = 75

Rasek [7]

x = number of packages he bought

y = number of popsicles in each package

Here are the two equations:

xy = 54

x = 3 + y

Using the substitution method, you can solve them to find x and y.

(3 + y)y = 54,

3y + y^2 = 54

y^2 + 3y - 54 = 0

Solve the quadriatic equation:

(y +9)(y - 6) = 0

y = -9, 6.

Plug y into: xy = 54

x(-9) = 54, x = -6.

x(6) = 54, x = 9.

So he bought 9 packages of popsicles, bc you can't bye -6 packages.
