Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 3 kids take 3 pieces of candy each
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of children that took 3 pieces is x ( total take 3*x pieces of candy)
Number of children that took 5 pieces is y ( total take 5*y pieces of candy)
1 child took 1 piece that actually means that x+y=18 and 3*x+5*y=84.
( Because total number of all kids is 19. We just deduct one kid (Let his name is John) who took only 1 candy. So we have 19-1 =18 kids without John. The similar is with the candies. Total number is 85. We deduct 1 piece which John has taken. )
So we have 2 equations or the system of 2 equations:
1). x+y=18
2). 3*x +5*y=84
Multuply both sides of equation 1) by 3
We have 3*x+3*y=18*3
Deduct 3*y from both sides of this equation
3*x+3*y-3*y=54-3*y
3*x=54-3*y
Substitute 3*x in equation 2). by 54-3*y
2) 54-3*y+5*y=84
2*y=30
y=15 ( kids take 5 pieces of candy each)
Using equation 1) find x
x+15=18
x=3 (kids take 3 pieces of candy each)
0.2,
-0.4,
-4.5
hope this helps
Perform indicated multiplication on left side first...
-5x-35<-10 add 35 to both sides
-5x<25 divide both sides by -5 (you must reverse sign because of division by a negative value too!)
x>5 or if you prefer...
x=(5, +oo)
Well there's two ways to approach this:
1.) Finding the width and going from there
2.) Finding the scale factor
I would recommend using the scale factor technique. You see how the length is reduced by a factor of 4? Well since the perimeter's formula involves adding length times width, you can just multiply the perimeter by 1/4 since the length went from 44 to 11(Just a rule, take it by heart). That means that the perimeter is

.
The area is multiplied, not added, so you have to <em>square</em> the scale factor. This means multiply the area by 1/16 (Another rule, take it by heart). This means that the area is [tex]\frac{1496}{16} = between 94 and 95
