Solve for b.
b^2= x+4ac
So b=sq root of x+4ac
X= # students who got lower grades
2x+3= # students with grade A
STEP 1:
Add the two sets above equal to 24.
x + (2x + 3)= 24
combine like terms
3x + 3= 24
subtract 3 from both sides
3x= 21
divide both sides by 3
x= 7 (# students lower than A)
STEP 2:
substitute x value from step 1 to find # grade A students
=2x + 3
=2(7) + 3
=14 + 3
=17 (# grade A students)
CHECK:
x + (2x + 3)= 24
7 + 2(7) + 3= 24
7 + 14 + 3= 24
24= 24
ANSWER: There were 17 students with grade A.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
2.222
Step-by-step explanation:
there is 1000 pieces of candy and 450 bags so 1000 ÷ 450 = 2.222
127 = 100 +27
32 = 30 +2
so 127 x 32 = (100 + 27) x (30+2) = (100x30) + (100x2) + (27x30) +(27x2)
= 3000+200+810+54 = 4064
second way:
127 = 100 + 27
127 x 32 = (100+27) x 32 = (100x 32) + ( 27x32) = 3200 + 864 = 4064
Answer:
96
Step-by-step explanation:
First divide 360 by 2.
Then divide 180 by 5 and that is how many 5 pound bags he will use.
Then divide 180 again by 3 and that is how many 3 pound bags he will use.
