1500 is the answer I did this a while ago I think not sure
X^2+3x=24, halve the linear coefficient, square it, and add it to both sides
In this case (3/2)^2=2.25
x^2+3x+2.25=26.25 now the left side is a perfect square...
(x+1.5)^2=26.25 take the square root of both sides
x+1.5=±√26.25 subtract 1.5 from both sides
x=-1.5±√26.25
x=-1.5-√26.25 and -1.5+√26.25
x≈ -6.62 and 3.62
Let the height of the rectangle = h
2b + 2h = 100
2(38) + 2h = 100
2h = 100 - 76
h = 12mm
area of rectangle = base x height
= 38 x 12
= 456mm²
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 2 = 8
5x = 8 + 2
5x = 10
x = 10/5
x = 2
Take however many boys/girls there are and divide it by how many sports there are... so 250/3= 83 boys per sport and 80 girls per sport.
