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>
(m+2)(m+3)= (m+2)(m-2)
⇒ m^2+ 3m+ 2m+ 6= m^2 -4
⇒ 5m+ 6= -4 (m^2 on both sides cancels out)
⇒ 5m= -4-6
⇒ 5m= -10
⇒ m= -10/5
⇒ m= -2
The final answer is m=-2~
Answer:
$2.75 = cost of a hot dog
$4.50 = cost of a cheeseburger
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = cost of a hot dog
y = cost of a cheeseburger
(1) 2x + 4y = 23.5 (2) 5x + y = 18.25
y = 18.25 - 5x
2x +4(18.25 - 5x) = 23.5
2x + 73 - 20x = 23.5
-18x + 73 = 23.5
-18x = -49.5
x = 2.75 y = 18.25 - 5(2.75)
y = 18.25 - 13.75
y = 4.50
$2.75 = cost of a hot dog
$4.50 = cost of a cheeseburger
