Answer:

Let's find out!

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have to set up an equation

Let x= # of ribbons that can be cut

Thus:

\frac{1}{6}x =\frac{6}{7} \\x=\frac{6}{7} *\frac{6}{1} \\x=\frac{36}{7}

So, we cannot have 36/7 ribbons! It's not possible!

So we just simplify!

x=5\frac{1}{7}

There we go! She can cut 5 ribbons off!

I'll let you figure out the last one!

Hope this helps!

P.S. Stay Safe!

Answer:

x= -3 and y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

so basically what you are trying to do is reduce into finding x and y

what you do is you want to find a number to multiply one of the equations in order to get the same x or y value does not matter which

so,...

we can do

either 20x or 15y

we will go with the smallest 15y

so for both equations multiply the whole thing by 5 for the first equation and by 3 for the second

5 x 5x+3y=3 --> 1

3 x 4x+5y=18 --> 2

we then get

25x+15y = 15 -->1

12x + 15y = 54 -->2

then now that you have the same Y values you can subtract ! which cancels out both the 15y

25x+15y = 15 -->1

- 12x + 15y = 54 -->2

13x =-39

so now x=-3 and all you have to do with x = -3 is sub this into either one of the equations that you started with  !

x = -3

5(-3) +3y =3

-15 + 3y = 3

3y = 3+15

3y=18

y = 6!

Marvin wants to purchase a rectangular rug. It has an area represented by the expression 4x^2+64x+256. what is the length and wi
jasenka [17]

Answer: the length and width are

(x + 8) and (x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The rug has an area represented by the expression

Area = 4x² + 64x + 256.

The factors in the factored expressions represent the length and width of the rug.

Dividing the the equation by 4, it becomes

x² + 16x + 64 = 0

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is 16x and their product is 64x^2.

The two numbers are 8x and 8x. Therefore,

x² + 8x + 8x + 64 = 0

x(x + 8) + 8(x + 8) = 0

The factors are

(x + 8)(x + 8)
