Answer:
its 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 400÷50
<span>8p = 3p + 25
Subtract 3p from both sides: 5p = 25 Divide both sides by 5: '
p = 5</span>
Answer:
width = 3.5 m
length = 18 m
Step-by-step explanation:
area = length x width
x is the width then length = 2x + 11
x(2x + 11) = 63
2x^2 + 11x - 63 = 0
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is equal to x = [-b +/-√(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a
with a = 2
b = 11
c = -63
substitute in the formula
x = [-11 +/- √(11^2 - 4(2)(-63))]2(2)
x = [-11 +/- √(121 + 504)]/4
x = [-11 +/- √625]/4
x = (-11 +/- 25)/4
x1 = (-11 + 25)/4 = 14/4 = 3.5
x2 = (-11 - 25)/4 = -36/4 = -9
since width can't be a negative number, x is 3.5
length = 2x + 11 = 2(3.5) + 11 = 18
Answer:
117 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
two dozen cookies calls for 234cups of sugar
2 dozen cookies = 234 cups of sugar
How much sugar is needed to make one dozen cookies?
Let x = cups of sugar needed
1 dozen cookies = x cups of sugar
2 dozen cookies : 234 cups of sugar = 1 dozen cookies : x cups of sugar
2 : 234 = 1 : x
2 / 234 = 1 / x
Cross product
2*x = 234 * 1
2x = 234
x = 234 / 2
= 117 cups
