Answer:

the cleats costs $49.5  and the socks costs $0.5  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of the cleats be represented by x and the cost of the socks be represented by y. If the cleats and socks costs a total of $50, it can be represented by the equation:

x  +   y  = 50       . . .     (1)

Also, the cleats cost $49 more than the socks, this can be represented by the equation:

x = 49 + y

Therefore:   x  -  y   =  49   .  .  .  (2)

Adding equation 1) and 2) to get:

2x = 99

Dividing through by 2

x = 99/2 = 49.5

Substituting x = 49.5 in equation 1):

49.5  +  y = 50

y  =  50 -  49.5  = 0.5

Therefore the cleats costs $49.5  and the socks costs $0.5

Answer:

(x - 5)(x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation is: x² + 3x - 40

1. Factor the quadratic

(a) Find two numbers that multiply to give -40 and add to give 3.

List the positive factors of 40: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40

One of the numbers must be negative. Start with the numbers near the middle of the list.

By trial and error, you will find that +8 and -5 work:

-5 × 8 = -40 and -5+8 = 3

(b) Rewrite 3x as -5x + 8x

x² - 5x + 8x - 40

(c) Factor the first two and the last two terms

x(x - 5) + 8(x - 5)

(d) Separate the common factor

x² + 3x - 40  = (x - 5)(x + 8)

2. Using Desmos

You can plot the equation with Desmos.

You get a parabola with x-intercepts at x = -8 and x = 5.

These are the solutions to

x + 8 =0 and x - 5 = 0, so

x² + 3x - 40 =  (x+ 8)(x - 5)

In a choir, the ratio of boys to girls is 5 to 6. There are 10 boys in the choir. What is the total number of boys and girls in
Aleks [24]

Answer:

5:6 --> 10:12

Step-by-step explanation:

A good way to think of this is to provide a perspective: there are 5 boys every time there is 6 girls. So if there is 10 boys, that means there would be 12 girls (because 5 *2 = 10 and 6*2 = 12).

tl:dr: 5 *2 = 10 so 6*2 = 12
