1. Convert percent into decimal (it will help)

2. Convert Decimal to fraction
First let’s call the square shape A and the rectangle shape B.
To find the area of shape A you do 24 x 24 = 576cm squared
To find the area of shape B you do 40 x 24 = 960cm squared
To find the total area you just add the two areas together
576 + 960 = 1536cm squared
The 3 bubble is the correct answer.
being that you're looking for 3.60 in quarters(25) and nickles (5) which add up to be 3.60 so 25q+5n=360
Answer:
x = - 3 is extraneous
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 1 = x ( add 1 to both sides )
= x + 1 ( square both sides )
x + 7 = (x + 1)² ← distribute right side
x + 7 = x² + 2x + 1 ( subtract x + 7 from both sides )
0 = x² + x - 6 ← in standard form
0 = (x + 3)(x - 2) ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
As a check
Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions.
x = - 3 :
- 1 =
- 1 = 2 - 1 = 1 ≠ - 3
x = 2 :
- 1 =
- 1 = 3 - 1 = 2
x = 2 is a solution and x = - 3 is extraneous
Answer:
2 1/3 cups of flour for every dozen muffins
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/2 dozen muffins equals 3 1/2 cups of flour which is also the same as 7/2 cups of flour. I know that (3) 1/2 dozen equals 1 1/2 dozen so I divided 7/2 by 3 which is 1 1/6 to get how much flour for 1/2 dozen then multiplied it by 2 to get how much flour in a dozen = 2 2/6 which simplified is 2 1/3.
