Given:
The product of a particular number is 65.
Second value is given by the sum of 8 and the original number.
To find:
The unknown number.
Solution:
Let x be the unknown number.
Then, second number = x+8
The product of a particular number is 65.
Splitting the middle term, we get
Using zero product property, we get
and 
and 
So, the unknown number is either 5 or -13.
Therefore, the correct option is B.
We have to find how many purple rectangles does Olivia need for 3 scarves. We know that each scarf will have 5 rectangles and 2/5 of the rectangles will be purple: 2/5 * 5 = 2. It means that each scarf will have 2 purple rectangles. And for 3 scarves : 3 * 2 = 6. Answer: She needs <span>6 purple rectangles.</span>
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 8x from both sides.
3x+4−8x=8x−11−8x
−5x+4=−11
Subtract 4 from both sides.
−5x+4−4=−11−4
−5x=−15
Divide both sides by -5.
−5x
−5
=
−15
−5
x=3
Put the equations in for r and c
p(c)=10x-(4x+15)
put the negaive in
10x-4x-15
6x-15
Answer is C
