Answer:

10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1 foot is 12 inches, so 12 x 15= 180. Divide 180/18 to get 10 inches each. :)

The sum of two numbers is 66. two times the smaller number is 15 more then th larger number what are the numbers

Delicious77 [7]

Let x = big number

Let y = small number

x + y = 66...Equation A

2y = x + 15...Equation B

We have two equations in two unknowns.

x + x + 15 = 66

2x = 66 - 15

2x = 54

x = 54/2

x = 27

Plug x = 27 into EITHER equation above to find y.

I will use Equation A.

x + y = 66

27 + y = 66

y = 66 - 27

y = 39

The two numbers are 27 and 39.

Ronch [10]

Answer:

120 pears

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pears produced by Type B be x

Number of pears produced by type A=144

According to question

Type A produce 20% more pears than B

x+ x ×20%= 144

x+x× $\frac{20}{100}$ = 144

$\frac{100x+20x}{100}$ = 144

$\frac{120x}{100}$ =144

x= 144× $\frac{100}{120}$

x=120 pears

Hence, Number of pears produced by B= 120 pears

Hence, the correct answer is 120 pears

Factoring , <br> a² +4a - 5

givi [52]

the factors of the term $a^2+4a-5$ are $(a-1)(a+5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find factors of the term: $a^2+4a-5$

For finding factors:

We need to break the middle term such that their product is equal to product of first and last term and their sum is equal to middle term

Breaking the middle term and finding factors:

$a^2+4a-5$

$=a^2+5a-a-5$

$=a(a+5)-1(a+5)$

$=(a-1)(a+5)$

So, the factors of the term $a^2+4a-5$ are $(a-1)(a+5)$
