The answer is A I’m pretty sure
Variables - a quantity that may change, depends on the context of the math problem. Ex: x,y
Terms - a variable, or constant, that is multiplied by a variable or variables.
Ex: 5x + 2 + 3y <-- has 3 terms
Coefficient - the constant that multiplies the variable and is next to a variable, Ex: (5x) <-- coefficient is 5
Constants - A fixed value such as 5, 6, 7, etc
The question can be written out like this:
36 = 0.009x
Multiply both sides by 1,000:
9x = 36,000
Divide both sides by 9:
x = 4,000
Simplify the following:
((x^2 - 11 x + 30) (x^2 + 6 x + 5))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))
The factors of 5 that sum to 6 are 5 and 1. So, x^2 + 6 x + 5 = (x + 5) (x + 1):
((x + 5) (x + 1) (x^2 - 11 x + 30))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))
The factors of 30 that sum to -11 are -5 and -6. So, x^2 - 11 x + 30 = (x - 5) (x - 6):
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))
x - 5 x = -4 x:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x^2 - 25) (-4 x - 6))
Factor -2 out of -4 x - 6:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3) (x^2 - 25))
x^2 - 25 = x^2 - 5^2:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2 (x^2 - 5^2) (2 x + 3))
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 5^2 = (x - 5) (x + 5):
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2(x - 5) (x + 5) (2 x + 3))
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x - 5) (x + 5) (-2) (2 x + 3)) = ((x - 5) (x + 5))/((x - 5) (x + 5))×((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)) = ((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)):
((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3))
Multiply numerator and denominator of ((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)) by -1:
Answer: (-(x - 6) (x + 1))/(2 (2 x + 3))
If we assume the club membership includes
then the blanks in the Juniors circle must be filled in with 6 and 8 (with the 8 going in the overlap with girls). The remaining blank in the Girls circle must be filled in with 12, the number of senior girls. The blank outside both circles is the number of senior boys (members who are not juniors and not girls), 16.
