Let's make a ratio!
okay this isn't the elmo show but still, let's start with reducing fractions

14/21 = 2/3 with a factor of 7

Only 2/3 of your "party peeps" can attend, so...

You only need 2/3 of your recipe!

2/3 of 6 = 4 cups of sugar
2/3 of 3 = 2 eggs
2/3 of 9 = 6 cups of flower
2/3 of 2 = (4/3) cups of oil

Write and solve an equation to find the unknown side length x (in inches). Perimeter =24.2 in. Sides of the shape are 8.3, 8.3,
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Perimeter of shape,which is a convex polygon i.e quadrilateral = 24.2 in

Sides are 8.3 in, 8.3 in, 3.8 in ,and length of fourth side be x in.

As , Perimeter = Sum of all sides

                 → 24.2 = 8.3 + 8.3 + 3.8 + x

                 → 24.2 = 16.6 +3.8 + x

                 → 24.2 = 20 .4 + x

Keeping like terms on one side, of equation

            → 24.2 - 20.4 = x

            → 3.8 = x

            → x = 3.8

So, length of fourth side = 3.8 in

The given shape is definately either a Parallelogram or a kite.

The graph of the function f(x) = (x − 3)(x + 1) is shown.
Nutka1998 [239]
Option A. All the real values of x where x < -1

Procedure
Solve the inequality:
(x -3)(x+1)>0
That happens in two cases.

1) When both factors >0
x-3>0 and x+1>0
x>3 and x >-1

The intersection is x >3

2) When both factors <0
x-3<0 and x+1<0
x<3 and x<-1

the intersection is x<-1.

We have obtained that the function is positive for the intervals  x < -1 and x > 3. But in one of those intervals the function is decresing and in the other is increasing.

You can recognize that the function given is a parabola and, because the coefficient of the quadratic term is positive, the parabola opens upward. Then the function is decreasing in the  first interval and increasing in the second interval.
