4 bowls of pasta would be served for twelve people.
4×3=12
Let's call the angles x and y. We know that supplementary angles must add to 180 degrees, so x+y=180.
Furthermore, we know that x is 75% more than 2y. We can write "75% more than" numerically as 1.75, so x = 1.75(2y).
We can simplify the second equation by multiplying 1.75 and 2 together to get x = 3.5y.
Now we can solve the system of equations by substitution by plugging 3.5y in for x in x+y=180.
(3.5y) + y = 180
Combine like terms.
4.5y = 180
Divide by 4.5
y = 40
Plug y = 40 in and solve for x.
x + 40 = 180
x = 140
The answer is 40 and 140. Hope this helps :)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2=3x-2(subtract 3x and add 2) x^2-3x+2=0(group) (x-1)(x-2)=0(find x) x=1;x=2
find y values for x values and check:
1^2=1, pair 1:(1,1); 3(1)-2=3-2=1, same pair
2^2=4, pair 2:(2,4); 3(2)-2=6-2=4, same pair
pairs: (1,1);(2,4)
Answer:
(x - 1)( x - 2) (x + 2) = x³ -x² -4x + 4.
Explanation:
1) Given equation:
3 5x x + 2
- ------- + -------- = ---------------
x + 2 x - 1 x² - 3x + 2
2) So, the denominators are x + 2, x - 1, and x² - 3x + 2
3) The LCD is the product of the common and non common factors raised to the greatest power.
4) x + 2, and x - 1 are already prime factors
5) Factor x² - 3x + 2
x² - 3x + 2 = (x - 2)(x - 1)
6) Then, the factors are x + 2, x - 1, and x - 2, and the LCD is the product of them:
(x - 1)( x - 2) (x + 2)
7) If you expand the products (distributive property) you get:
x³ -x² -4x + 4.
