<h2><u>EQUATION</u></h2><h3>Exercise</h3>
2(3 + 3y) + y = 11
First, apply the distributive property:
2(3 + 3y) + y = 11
6 + 6y + y = 11
6 + 7y = 11
Substract 6 from both sides:
6 - 6 + 7y = 11 - 6
7y = 5
Divide both sides by 7:
<h3><u>Answer</u>. The value of y = 5/7.</h3>
= > x² + 7x + 12 = 12
= > x² + ( 4 + 3 )x + 12 = 12
= > x² + 4x + 3x + 12 = 12
= > x( x + 4 ) + 3( x + 4 ) = 12
= > ( x + 4 ) ( x + 3 ) = 12
Percy did correct till this step. But by doing like this, Percy can't get the values of the variable x.
Percy should follow the following steps :
= > x² + 7x + 12 = 12
Add -12 on both sides,
= > x² + 7x + 12 - 12 = 12 - 12
= > x² + 7x = 0
= > x( x + 7 ) = 0
= > ( x = 0 ) or ( x + 7 = 0 )
= > ( x = 0 ) or ( x = - 7 )
Hence, required value(s) of x is 0 or -7
As a ratio, 5:86 represents students to teachers
We can set up the equation as 5/86=x/9460
Multiply 9460 to both sides
5x9460/86=x
47300/86=x
x=550
There are 550 professors
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
b)
Yes it would because you would divide 3.5 from both sides
