Answer:
• Gayle: 14
• Crystal: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let g represent the number of paperclips Gayle has. Then 42/g is the number Crystal has. The relationship between the two numbers is said to be ...
g - (42/g) = 11
Multiplying by g gives ...
g^2 -42 = 11g
g^2 -11g -42 = 0 . . . . subtract 11 g to put into standard form
To factor this, you are looking for two factors of -42 that sum to -11.
-42 = -42·1 = -21·2 = -14·3 = -7·6
You can see that -14 and 3 sum to -11, so the factoring is ...
(g -14)(g +3) = 0
g = 14 . . . . . . . . . . makes the product zero. (The g=-3 solution is extraneous.)
Gayle has 14 paperclips and Crystal has 3.
8 3-point shots and 13 2-point shots.
8x3 = 24, 13x2 = 26,
24+26= 50.
13+ 8 = 21
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
its the same as adding positive numbers but with a minus sign so -3+(-2)= -5
I'm assuming your allowed to use a calculator for this? That's what I would do.

To go about the fraction, take the whole number and times it by the denominator, then add in the numerator to create a new fraction(a whole one not mixed). Then simply divide the numerator by the denominator.


193 is the new numerator and the new whole fraction is this and dividing it out gives you,

For the third one, just input it into a calculator,
