Step-by-step explanation:
Which expression represents the statement "four less than the product of three and a number"?
A) 4-3n
B) 4-n/3
C) 3n-4
D) n/3-4
There no way that you can make this a mixed number unless you don't simplify all the way, which goes against the laws of math. I guess a fraction out of the answer would be 1189/1...
Answer:
k = -9.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the triangle is right-angled at Q, by Pythagoras:
PR^2 = PQ^2 + RQ^2
So, substituting the given data and using the distance formula between 2 points:
(7 - 1)^2 + (k - 4)^2 = (-4-4)^2 + (-3-1)^2 + (7 - (-3))^2 + (k - (-4))^2
36 + (k - 4)^2 = 64 + 16 + 100 + ( k + 4)^2
(k - 4)^2 - (k + 4)^2 = 180 - 36
k^2 - 8k + 16 - (k^2 + 8k + 16) = 144
-16k = 144
k = -9.
Let the number of cards in each group be 2x and 3x.
So,
2x + 3x = 120
5x = 120
x = 120 / 5
x = 24
Number of cards in each group is
2x = 2 × 24 = 48
3x = 3 × 24 = 72
