Answer:

(x-1)(8x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

$8x^2 - 3x -8x + 3$

Area of the rectangle is length * width

To find the possible dimension we need to factor the given area

the first parenthesis is length and second parenthesis is width

LEts factor $8x^2 - 3x -8x + 3$

We use grouping method

$(8x^2 - 3x)+(-8x + 3)$

Take out GCf from each group

$x(8x- 3)-1(8x -3)$

(x-1)(8x-3)

Tickets to a concert cost $2 for children, $3 for teenagers and $5 for adults. When 570 people attended the concert, the total t

-Dominant- [34]

Let

x--------> the number of children

y------> the number of teenagers

z------> the number of adults

we know that

$2x+3y+5z=1,950$ ------> equation A

$x+y+z=570$ -----> equation B

$y=\frac{3}{4}x$

$x=\frac{4}{3}y$ -------> equation C

Substitute equation C in equation A and equation B

$2[\frac{4}{3}y]+3y+5z=1,950$

$\frac{17}{3}y+5z=1,950$ --------> equation D

$[\frac{4}{3}y]+y+z=570$

$\frac{7}{3}y+z=570$ --------> equation E

Multiply equation E by $-5$

$-\frac{35}{3}y-5z=-2,850$ --------> equation F

Adds equation D and equation F

$\frac{17}{3}y+5z=1,950\\\\-\frac{35}{3}y-5z=-2,850\\\\---------\\\\-\frac{18}{3}y=-900\\\\y=3*900/18\\\\y=150\ teenagers$

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

$150\ teenagers$

Let $a$ be the number of hours worked at Job A and $b$ the number of hours at Job B. Then

$a+b=30$

and

$7.5a+8b=234.50$

From the first equation,

$b=30-a$

and substituting this into the second gives

$7.5a+8(30-a)=234.50\implies-0.5a+240=234.50$

$\implies0.5a=5.50$

$\implies\boxed{a=11}$
