Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x²-8x+ 14 =2x+7
x² - 8x +14 - 2x - 7 = 0
x² - 10x + 7 = 0
So, you have 3/4x + 5/8 = 4x. We can do this in two ways. Since fractions are harder to deal with, we can turn the fractions into whole numbers.
First we need to find the LCD (Least Common Denominator) between 4 and 8, which is 8. So multiply the 3/4x by 2/2, which gives you an equivalent fraction of 6/8x.
So now we have 6/8x + 5/8 = 4x. Now multiply both sides by 8, to get rid of the denominators of the fractions. That gives us 6x + 5 = 32x. Now use the subtraction property of equality to subtract 6x from both sides giving us 5 = 26x.
Now you can use the division property of equality to divide 26 on both sides, which gives us x = 5/26.
Hope this helps. :D Feel free to ask any other questions, and if you have any questions about my explanation, don't hesitate to ask.
Answer:21
Step-by-step explanation:
x=length
x(x-6)=315
x^2-6x=315
x^2-6x-315=0
(x-21)(x+15)
x=21, x=-15
x cannot be negative so the only answer is 21
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that among 500 freshmen pursuing a business degree at a university, 315 are enrolled in an economics course, 213 are enrolled in a mathematics course, and 123 are enrolled in both an economics and a mathematics course.
From the above we find that
a) either economics of Math course is

Out of 500 students 405 have taken either Math or Economics
Hence
c) student who have taken neither = 
Exactly one course is either math or economics - both
= 
Answer:
You could get 5 packs of cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each pack would cost $3.50, so we would have to divide $17.50 by $3.50, which would give us 5 packs of cookies
