Answer:
x = -8/b
Step-by-step explanation:
2bx – bx = -8
Combine like terms
bx = -8
Divide by b
bx/b = -8/b
x = -8/b
Hey there!
Tom's age to Mary's is 3:4; an equivalent ratio is 15:x (x symbolizes Mary's age).
To solve for this, we need to divide our proportions. By that, I mean divide Tom's older age by his younger age. If we do so, we should get a scale factor that we can multiply Mary's younger age by.
15 / 3 = 5
This means that the scale factor of the ages is 5.
x / 4 = 5 (Solving for Mary's unknown age.)
To solve for x, multiply both sides by 4.
x/4 * 4 = x
5 * 4 = 20
x = 20
Mary's age is 20.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
x=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number
3x = x^2 -54
Subtract 3x
3x-3x = x^2 -3x-54
0 = x^2 -3x-54
Factor
What 2 numbers multiply to -54 and add to -3
-9*6 = -54
-9+6 = -3
0=(x-9) (x+6)
Using the zero product property
x-9=0 x+6=0
x=9 x=-6
The questions asks for the negative solution
x=-6
The answer uses NMF for formatting, which you can find out about in my profile if needed:
the equation is this:
time = {total paid - 35}/{15}
Put in what we know:
time = {95 - 35}/{15}
time = {60}/{15}
time = 4 hours
