Answer:
:) 17
Step-by-step explanation:
68 = 4 x L
68 div by 4 = 17
the length is 17
*Given
Money of Phoebe - 3 times as much as Andy
Money of Andy - 2 times as much as Polly
Total money of Phoebe, - £270
Andy and Polly
*Solution
Let
B - Phoebe's money
A - Andy's money
L - Polly's money
1. The money of the Phoebe, Andy, and Polly, when added together would total £270. Thus,
B + A + L = £270 (EQUATION 1)
2. Phoebe has three times as much money as Andy and this is expressed as
B = 3A
3. Andy has twice as much money as Polly and this is expressed as
A = 2L (EQUATION 2)
4. This means that Phoebe has ____ as much money as Polly,
B = 3A
B = 3 x (2L)
B = 6L (EQUATION 3)
This step allows us to eliminate the variables B and A in EQUATION 1 by expressing the equation in terms of Polly's money only.
5. Substituting B with 6L, and A with 2L, EQUATION 1 becomes,
6L + 2L + L = £270
9L = £270
L = £30
So, Polly has £30.
6. Substituting L into EQUATIONS 2 and 3 would give us the values for Andy's money and Phoebe's money, respectively.
A = 2L
A = 2(£30)
A = £60
Andy has £60
B = 6L
B = 6(£30)
B = £180
Phoebe has £180
Therefore, Polly's money is £30, Andy's is £60, and Phoebe's is £180.
Answer:
She worked 18 hours of overtime.
Step-by-step explanation:
If she works 40 hours per week and gets $200, subtract $380 - $200 = $180.
If you multiply $180 by 0.1 (which is 10% converted to a decimal), you get 18 which is your final answer.
The simplified form is 12x-40
Answer:
- x=8, x=2
- no solution
- no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
For the equation ...
y = a(x -h)² +k
you can find the x-intercepts by setting y=0 and solving for x.
0 = a(x -h)² +k
-k = a(x -h)² . . . . . . subtract k
-k/a = (x -h)² . . . . . divide by a
±√(-k/a) = x -h . . . . take the square root
h ± √(-k/a) = x . . . . add h . . . . this is the general solution
__
So, for each of your problems, fill in the corresponding numbers and do the arithmetic. If (-k/a) is a negative number, the square root gives imaginary values, so there is "no solution".
1. x = 5 ± √9 = {5 -3, 5 +3} = {2, 8} . . . . the x-intercepts are 2 and 8
2. x = -3 ± √(-2) . . . . . . no solution; the roots are complex
3. x = 5 ± √(-8/4) . . . . . no solution; the roots are complex
