To answer, determine the amount of paint that is needed in order to cover the whole of the sign. If we use the ratio and proportion and letting x be the unknown amount. The equation would be,
1/2 / 1/3 = x / 1
The value of x from the equation is equal to 1.5. Thus, the answer is letter D. 3/2 cups.
Answer: The two roots are x = 3/2 and x = -2
=========================================================
Explanation:
You have the right idea so far. But the two numbers should be 3 and -4 since
The -1 being the coefficient of the x term.
This means you need to change the -3x and 4x to 3x and -4x respectively. The other inner boxes are correct.
---------
Refer to the diagram below to see one way to fill out the box method, and that helps determine the factorization.
If we place a 2x to the left of -2x^2, then we need an -x up top because 2x*(-x) = -2x^2
Then based on that outer 2x, we need a -2 up top over the -4x. That way we get 2x*(-2) = -4x
So we have the factor -x-2 along the top
The last thing missing is the -3 to the left of 3x. Note how -3*(-x) = 3x in the left corner and -3*(-2) = 6 in the lower right corner.
We have the factor 2x-3 along the left side.
---------
The two factors are (2x-3) and (-x-2) which leads to the factorization (x+3)(-x+2)
The last thing to do is set each factor equal to 0 and solve for x
- 2x-3 = 0 solves to x = 3/2 = 1.5
- -x-2 = 0 solves to x = -2
The two roots are x = 3/2 and x = -2
Answer:
2 x 7
Step-by-step explanation:
a * b = 14
2a + 2b = 18
(a * b)/b = 14/b Dividing both sides by b
a = 14/b
Substitute a in the perimeter equation
2(14/b) + 2b = 18
28/b + 2b = 18
2b - 18 + 28/b = 0
Multiply both sides by b
2b^2 - 18b + 28 = 0
Divide both sides by two
b^2 - 9b + 14 = 0
The Factors of 14 include -2 and -7 which add up to -9
(b - 2) * (b - 7) = 0
This has two answers because b can be either the side that is 2 long or 7 long, so there's no need to go back and solve for a.
2 x 7
