Let's say each row has x desks and there are y rows.
We then know that x*y =25
We also know that x*2-5=y (number number of rows is five less than twice the number of desks in each row)
So we substitute: x*(x*2-5)=25
putting numbers out of the brackets:
2x*x-5x=25
2x*x-5x-25=0
(2x+5)(x-5)=0 (this bracketing is true: you can check it by expanding it:
2x*x-10x+5x-25
So that means that either x=-2.5which can't be : there can't be a fractional number of benches,
or x=5
so each row has 5 desks and there are 2*5-5 rows, or 5 rows.
Answer:
b = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
-13 = 2b - b - 10
Add 10 to both sides of the equation
-3 = 2b - b
Subtract 2b - b
-3 = b
b = -3
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that a rational number cannot have roots. All of the answer choices cannot be simplified except for , which can become 1. Therefore, our answer is .
Answer:
67.5 percent (if you're rounding up 68 percent)
Step-by-step explanation:
10,500/15,540 which equals 0.675 turn this into a percent which is 67.5%
1) The process of cellular respiration takes place in the mitrochondria.
2) The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts. Only plant cells and the cells of autotrophic protists and some bacteria undergo this process.
3) Phospholipids are lipids that consist of glycerol joined to two fatty acids and a phosphate group, which gives this molecule two nonpolar hydrophobic tails and a polar hydrophilic head. Phospholipids form bilayers that are used to make up biological membranes.
4)While there are definitely many more than 4 important molecules, I'm assuming the ones you are looking for are carbohydrates, proteins, Nucleic acids, and lipids.
5)A molecule is made up of two or more atoms held together by covalent bonds, whereas a compound is a substance containing two or more elements in a fixed ratio. Both molecules and compounds are made up of atoms/elements, however, compounds MUST be made up of two different kinds of elements, while molecules could consist of the same kind.
Hope this helps! :)
