Answer: zero
Explanation: if one classroom on its own needed 17 gallons of paint and they only purchased 16,-- which is less than needed for one classroom- how would there be enough for any other classroom?
The equation that would best describe the situation would be the first option. To solve this question, simply break down the question into sections and then use variables X and y to represent each of the things asked for in the problem. We know the following:
X = no of tetra fish
Y = no of goldfish
If there is twice as much goldfish than tetra fish, then it would be 2y.
X = 2Y.
Then knowing what X and y represent, find the equation that gives the total cost of fish he bought, knowing that 1.50 is for a goldfish and 2.00 is for a tetra fish.
Answer:
X = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, divide 5 by 3 to find the scale factor:
5/3 = 1.667
Now, multiply 4.5 by 1.667 to find x:
x = (4.5)(1.667)
x = 7.5
Therefore, x is equal to 7.5.

IF IT EQUALS 0
1. find two number that multiplied to 48 and adds to 14, which are 6 and 8.
2. substitute the new numbers in with x to get x^2 + 6x + 8x + 48.
3. factor out the x and the 8 to get x(x+6)+8(x+6).
4. x = -6, x = -8
IF IT DOES NOT EQUAL 0
then (x+6)*(x+8) is your answer.
