Answer:
"Dominic lived in Spain for 13 months and Columbia for 7 months."
Step-by-step explanation:
let months stayed in spain be "s" and months stayed in columbia be "c"
We can write 2 equations.
Since, lived in Spain and Columbia for a total of 20 months, we can write:
s + c = 20
Also, since 120 words per month in Spain and 150 words per month in Columbia for a total of 2610 new words, we can write:
120s + 150c=2610
Solving first for s:
s = 20 - c
Putting in 2nd and solving:
120(20 - c) + 150c = 2610
2400 - 120c + 150c = 2610
30c = 210
c = 7
Now,
s = 20 - c = 20 - 7 = 13
So
"Dominic lived in Spain for 13 months and Columbia for 7 months."
Answer:
+ 7 and - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 5x - 14
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 14) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 5)
The factors are + 7 and - 2 , since
7 × - 2 = - 14 and 7 - 2 = + 5 , then
x² + 5x - 14 = (x + 7)(x - 2) ← in factored form
Part (a)
We have some unknown number x which is a placeholder for a positive whole number (eg: x = 4).
What's happening to x are these two things, in this exact order
- Multiply by 85
- Add 60
We multiply first, then add. The order is important. We're following the order of operations PEMDAS here. If we knew what x was, then we'd go forward in the PEMDAS chain; however, we don't know what x is. So we go backwards in the chain to isolate x. This will undo every operation applied to x.
So,
C = 85x+60
C-60 = 85x
85x = C-60
x = (C-60)/85
In the second step, I subtracted 60 from both sides to undo the "plus 60" operation. Then in the last step, I divided both sides by 85 to undo the multiplication.
<h3>Answer:
x = (C-60)/85</h3>
===============================================================
Part (b)
How many ski trips can we take if we spend $315? We simply plug in C = 315 into that equation we just found at the end of part (a).
Doing so gets us...
x = (C-60)/85
x = (315-60)/85
x = 255/85
x = 3
We can take 3 ski trips if we spent a total of $315
Repeat the same steps for C = 485
x = (C-60)/85
x = (485-60)/85
x = 425/85
x = 5
We can take 5 ski trips if we spent a total of $485
Note how plugging something like x = 5 into the original equation yields:
C = 85x+60
C = 85*5+60
C = 425+60
C = 485
Showing that x = 5 leads to C = 485. This helps confirm the second answer. I'll let you check the first answer.
