Answer:
Allen sold 50 cell phones while Kay sold 67 cell phones.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of cell phones sold by Allen be x. This will imply that the number of cell phones sold by Kay is x + 17.
Furthermore, we are informed that together they sold a total of 117 cell phones. Therefore, we use the following equation to determine the number of cell phones sold by each;
x + x + 17 = 117
2x + 17 = 117
2x = 100
x = 50
Therefore, Allen sold 50 cell phones while Kay sold 67 cell phones.
The given trinomial can be factored using the factorization method.
x² -12x + 35
= x² -7x -5x + 35
= x(x-7) - 5(x-7)
= (x-7)(x-5)
Thus, (x-7)(x-5) is the factored form of the polynomial.
So the correct answer is option B
3(3b+2)=-30 perform indicated multiplication on left side...
9b+6=-30 subtract 6 from both sides
9b=-36 divide both sides by 9
b=-4
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
9.233 ft, 23.233 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
If the shorter leg is x, then the longer leg is x+14 and the Pythagorean theorem tells you ...
x^2 + (x +14)^2 = 25^2
2x^2 +28x +196 = 625
x^2 +14x = 214.5
x^2 +14x +49 = 263.5
(x +7)^2 = 263.5
x = -7 +√263.5 ≈ 9.23268
The two leg lengths are √263.5 ± 7 feet, {9.23 ft, 23.23 ft}.
