So to help with the first one
2 / x = 5
multiply the x on both sides
2 = 5x
divide by 5 to isolate the x
2/5 = x
For the second one
We will use the diamond to help us find the common factor
\ 1 /
\ /
\ /
2 / \ 4
/ 3 \
/ \
1) the product
2) and 4) the two numbers
and 3) is sum
10 is the product and -7 is the sum
so what two numbers (factors of 10)
will equal -7 when added
so we have these numbers that will equal the product of +10 and we will need to find the ones that will equal -7 as the sum
10*1, 2*5, -1*-10, -2*-5
if we add the two numbers we will find respectively
11, 7, -11, -7
As you can see that -2 + -5 = +10 and -2+-5= +10
So we have found the two numbers
now before we factor the expression looks like
( x + a) (x + b)
and when factored looks like
x^2 + (a+b)x + (a*b)
Now we can plug in the numbers and solve to see if -2 and -5 are right
(x + -2) (x + -5)
we will factor it
x^2 +-5x + -2x + 10
x^2 + -7x + 10
so a = -2 and b = -5
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Three sheets
Step-by-step explanation:
Even though he used less than an entire sheet of each color, he still used three sheets of paper to make the card.
1.0649 to the nearest thousandths is 1.065
You could get this by finding where the thousandths place is, which is the third number.
Now, look at the number to the right.
If it's 5 or higher, round up.
If it's 4 or lower, round down.
Since it is 9, we round up.
The 4 turns into a 5.
So, 1.065
Hope I helped!
Answer: (C) 13,120
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Given the sequence {4, 12, 36, 108, ... , 8748} we know that the first term (a) is 4 and the ratio (r) is 
Input the values above into the Sum formula:

In a store, perhaps. People want it to be easy to shop, so it would be best for say, a top ramen package to be the same net weight as all the other top ramen packages. This makes it 1) easy to label and 2) easy to be confident buying, as it is exactly the same as all the others.
