The manager already hired 9 people. Let x be the number of people he still can hire. Since these people will add to the 9 he already hired, when the hiring campaign will be over he will have hired 9+x people. We know that he can't hire more than 14 people, so the number of people hired must be less than or equal to 14:

9+x \leq 14

If we subtract 9 from both sides, we have

x \leq 14-9=5

so, the manager can hire at most 5 other people

astraxan [27]
     <span> 1/3(2x - 3) + 1 = 1/4(3x + 5) - 2
2x/3 - 3/3 + 1 = 3x/4 + 5/4 - 2
2x/3 - 1 + 1 = 3x/4 + 5/4 - 2
2x/3 - 3x/4 - 0 = 3x/4 - 3x/4 + 5/4 - 2
2x*4/3*4 - 3x*3/4*3 = 0 + 5*1/4*1 - 2*4/1*4
8x/12 - 9x/12 = 5/4 - 8/4
(8x - 9x)/12 = (5 - 8)/4
-x/12 = -3/4
-x/12 * 12 = -3/4 * 12
-x = -36/4
-x * -1 = -36/4 * -1
x = 36/4
x = 9
Done

For check the answer
let x = 9
1/3(2[9] - 3) + 1 = 1/4(3[9] + 5) - 2
1/3(18 - 3) + 1 = 1/4(27 + 5) - 2
1/3(15) + 1 = 1/4(32) - 2
15/3 + 1 = 32/4 - 2
15/3 + 3/3 = 32/4 - 8/4
18/3 = 24/4
6 = 6
therefor
x = 9 is a correct answer</span>

What are the following numbers writen as powers? 243
puteri [66]

Answer:

243=3^5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write 243 as a power of some number.

So, if we factorize 243 we get,

243 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3

Therefore, we can write 243 as a power of 3.

No other number can be written in powers of 243 because it do not contain any other factor than 3.

Hence, 243 can be written as :

243=3^5
