Answer:
the answer should be a i hoped this helped\
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor the numerator to get:
(-3z(z+5))/(z+5) now you notice that (x+5) cancel out leaving:
-3z
The answer to the expression is -97/20 or -4.85
The problem presented with the word used as "divied" is very tricky and misleading to the point that it might create an understanding.
So we will approach this is in two ways.
If this was meant to be "divided by" then it would look like this:
6 / 192
If this was meant to be "divided to" then it would look like this:
192 / 6
Let us first solve for the first possible problem:
6 / 192 = ?
0.0312
0.0312 would be the answer.
Let us then solve for the second possible problem:
192 / 6 = ?
32 = ?
32 would be the answer.
So 0.0312 and 32 would be two possible answers to this problem.
Answer:
3500 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
The Greenpoint factory produced 2/5 of the bricks that the Consolidate Brick Company produced in 1991.
Let the amount of bricks produced by the Greenpoint factory be g and the amount of bricks produced by the Consolidated brick company be c.
Therefore:
g = 2/5 * c = 2c/5
That year, the Greenpoint factory produced 1400 tons of bricks. This implies that:
1400 = 2c/5
To find the amount that the Consolidated Brick Company produced, solve for c:
1400 = 2c/5
1400 * 5 = 2c
7000 = 2c
c = 7000 / 2 = 3500 tons
The Consolidated Brick Company had a total production output of 3500 tons in 1991.
