it’s just how far away that number is from zero
Answer:
-1425
Step-by-step explanation:
Day 1 - 475
Day 2 -475
Day 3 - 475
-475+ -475 + -475 = -1425
Another way to write this is:
x = 23y + 5
xy = 6732
Now plug in the first equation into the second:
(23y + 5)y = 6732
23y^2 + 5y - 6732 = 0
Either use quadratic equation or factor:
(y - 17)(23y + 396) = 0
y = 17 or -396/23
You know you can automatically eliminate the second y because it's negative and you need the two integers to multiply to a positive number (6732).
Plug y = 17 back into either equation (second might be easier):
17x = 6732
x = 396
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There could be 2 3 4 6 or 12. You can use any number that divides evenly into 12. I don't think you can use 1 because the question says members. The next question is, do you include Sharon in the group (so she gives herself a share) and again I will answer yes. She has to get something out of the deal.
2: each member gets 3 red and 3 white. ( don't say 6 red and 6 white.)
3: Each member gets 4 in total 2 red and 2 white each
4: Each member gets 4 in total. This can be split 2 ways.
6: Each member gets 2 in total: 1 red and 1 white.
12: Each member gets 1. 6 get red and the others get white.
