factors of the initial term
Here, 7/3 is the only possible root that has a 7 in the numerator and a factor of 9 in the denominator.
Verify that 7/3 is a root using synthetic division.
Their combined chance of winning is 20%.
The formula is y-y1=slope(x-x1)
so the answer is y-2 = 3/5(x-10)
It is 9/12 and simplified that is 3/4
Answer:
50(115-y) + 25y = 4125 [from eq2]
5750 - 50y + 25y = 4125 [distribute]
5750 - 25y = 4125
-25y = -1625
y = 65 [divide both sides by (-25)]
There are 65 small boxes.
Put that value into either equation (now, which is easier?) to solve for x:
x = 115 - y
x = 115 - 65
x = 50
There are 50 large boxes.
