The area of a rectangle is calculated my multiplying the length of the rectangle and the width of the rectangle. In this case, the length (the longer side) is 70 feet while the width (shorter side) is 30 feet. Hence the area is 2,100 ft2.
1) Expression 1: 16x^3 y
2) Expression 2: 24 xy^5
Procedure:
1) find the greatest common factor of the coefficients, 16 and 24:
16 = 2^4
24 = (2^3)*3
=> greatest common factor = 2^3 = 8
2) find the greatest common factor of x^3 y and xy^5
That is the common letters each raised to the lowest power:
=> xy
3) Then, the result is 8xy
Hello!
Let's put this into a system of equations and have a represent the apples and o represent the oranges.
o=2a+2
0.5o-0.5a=4
Since we can already so what o equals (2a+2) we will substitute it into the second equation and solve for a.
0.5(2a+2)-0.5a=4
1a+1-0.5a=4
1.5a+1=4
1.5a=3
a=2
Now that we know the value of a will put a into the first equation to find o.
o=2(2)+2
o=4+2
o=6
There were 6 oranges and 2 apples.
I hope this helps!
<span>2x/4x+2 x 14 x+7/6 is unclear. Do you mean 2/4x, or do you mean 2x
-------- ??
4x+2
Use parentheses to make things clearer.
I will assume that you meant to write
2x
--------- * 14x + 7/6
4x + 2
but am very much unsure if this is correct or not.
Perhaps you meant
</span>2x/(4x+2) times 14(x+7/6)
<span>
This comes out as follows:
2x * 14 (x + 7/6) 28x(x + 7/6) 14x(x + 7/6)
------------------------ = ------------------- = --------------------
4x+2 2(2x + 1) 2x + 1 after reduction.
Performing the multiplication, we get 14x^2 + 98/6
--------------------
2x+1

It appears that you're using "x" both as a variable name and as the "multiply" operator. If so, please don't! Use " * " to indicate multiplication.
