Answer: x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute 1 for x
1/2(10(1)+6) = -2(1)+10
1/2(10+6) = -2+10
5+3 = -2+10
8=8
Answer:
the answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
A = l x w
so you know that the length is 3m longer than the width, so you could use a formula to represent that
w = l + 3
you then substitute the second equation into the first to solve for l
70 = l x (l +3)
70 = l^2 + 3l
you could then rearrange the formula and solve for l using the quadratic formula
0 = l^2 + 3l - 70
l = -3 +- (square root (3)^2 - 4(1)(70)) / 2(1)
l = -3 +- (square root 9 + 280) / 2
l = -3 +- (square root 289) / 2
l = -3 +- 17 / 2
then you solve for the two seperate roots
l = -3 + 17 /2
l = 14 / 2
l = 7
or
l = -3 - 17 / 2
l = -20 / 2
l = -10
since a length cannot be negative, this root is not viable. therefore l = 7
to solve for w you would use
w = l + 3
w = 7 + 3
w = 10

We are given that Peter buys 12 bunches of bananas for 9.00.
We need to determine how much peter will pay for 8 bunches.
Let us set up proportion now.
12 bunches of bananas for 9.00 = 12 : 9
Let us assume Peter will pay for 8 bunches = $x.
Therefore, 8 bunches of bananas for x = 8 : x.
<h3>Setting up proportion:</h3><h3>
</h3>
On cross-multiplying, we get
12x = 9×8
12x = 72.
Dividing both sides by 12, we get
x=6.
<h3>Therefore, Peter will pay $6 for 8 bunches.</h3>
Hello,
505/1 000 = ( 505 / 5 ) / ( 1 000 / 5 ) = 101/200
Bye :)
