Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=9, x=7
Aka x= 9,7
Step-by-step explanation:
Oh goodie, factoring.
I used to be very good at this. My memory is a LITTLE rusty but let's see if we can bust out some penzoil and fix my aching joints (yes I just stole the quote from that terrible show, sue me), shall we?
1. x^2 - 11x + 68 = 5x +5
2. Chuck all the x variables to the left: x^2 - 16x + 68 = 5
3. Get rid of that pesky loser, 5, by subtracting from both sides of the equation (Note that it's important to remember LIKE TERMS, don't try subtracting 5 from 16x, you'll hurt yourself): x^2 - 16x + 68 - 5 = 5 - 5
New equation: x^2 - 16x + 63 = zilch (0)
4. Use AC method to factor: x2+bx+c. AC method definition: a pair of numbers whose product is c and whose sum is b: (x-9)(x-7)=0
5. Solve for x.
Booyah.
Answer:
6 min
Step-by-step explanation:
5 kilometers = 5,000 meters
500/5,000 = 1/10 meaning it would take him 1/10 of an hour or 6 minutes to cover this distance.
Answer: 29 cans.
Step-by-step explanation:
20 can survive 24 days with 15 cans.
If X is the number of days that a man can survive with one can of rations.
so X is in the units can/day
then we have that:
24/15*X = 20
X = 20*15/24 = 12.5
This means that a man can live 12.5 days with a can of food.
then, for 16 men and 36 days we have:
(36/C)*12.5 = 16
C = (36/16)*12.5 = 28.1215
And we can not have a 0.1215 of a can, so we should round it up to 29 cans.
Answer:
7/12
Step-by-step explanation:
-15/9+9/4
We need to make them have the same denominator:
9x4= 36 so that is our new denominator
-15x4= -60
9x9=81
(Sorry if i dont make sense)
Now we have -60/36+81/36 which is equal to 21/36.
Now we simplify:
21/36=7/12
