Let be "x" the number of colored pencils in the box.
According to the information given in the exercise, there are 84 pencils in the box and 53 of them are regular pencils.
Knowing this information, you can set up the following equation:
Finally, you have to solve for the variable "x" in order to find its value. In order to do this, you can apply the Subtraction property of equality by subtracting 53 from both sides of the equation:
The answer is: There are 31 colored pencils in the box.
Answer:
(4x + 7y)(4x - 7y)
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite 16 as 4^2
= 4^2x^2 - 49y^2
Rewrite 49 as 7^2
= 4^2x^2 - 7^2y^2
Apply the Exponent Rule Pt 1 ((a^m*b^m =(ab)^m))
= (4x)^2 - 7^2y^2
Apply the Exponent Rule Pt 2
= (4x)^2 - (7y)^2
Apply Difference of Squares Formula (( x^2-y^2 = (x + y)(x - y)
= (4x + 7y) (4x - 7y)
637 is the answer because our value is 980 we all know the unknown value with x for the step above 980 and 100% and 65% is the result in a pair of a simple equations
A constant because it a number
