<h3>Answer:  6a</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

Solve the first equation for b

a/b = 6/7

7a = 6b ... cross multiply

6b = 7a

b = 7a/6 ... divided both sides by 6

------

Solve the second equation for c

a/c = 2/5

5a = 2c

2c = 5a

c = 5a/2

------

We found that

  • b = 7a/6
  • c = 5a/2

both are in terms of a

So,

3b+c = 3(7a/6) + 5a/2

3b+c = 21a/6 + 5a/2

3b+c = 7a/2 + 5a/2

3b+c = (7a+5a)/2

3b+c = 12a/2

3b+c = 6a

<h3>Answer:  (x+1)(x+3)</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

Let's assume it factors into (x+a)(x+b)

The goal is to find the two numbers a and b.

FOIL out (x+a)(x+b) to get x^2+(a+b)x+ab

Note how a+b is the middle term and ab is the last term.

In the original expression, 4 is the middle term and 3 is the last term.

So we need to find two numbers that

  • add to 4
  • multiply to 3

There are two ways to multiply to 3 and they are

  • 1 times 3 = 3
  • -1 times -3 = -3

But only the first way has the factors add to 4. So that means a = 1 and b = 3.

Therefore (x+a)(x+b) = (x+1)(x+3)

And x^2+4x+3 = (x+1)(x+3)

Answer:

10=16[ by cost]

Step-by-step explanation: the cost of 10 chairs is x.

the cost 16 chairs is also x. 10x = 16x

4x is loss.

Profit or Gain = Selling price – Cost price. Loss = Cost price – Selling price. Profit Percentage = [Profit/C.P.]×100. Percentage Loss = [Loss/C.P.]×100.

In simple way, we can say that sp- cp[ when it is a gain], cp -sp[ when it is a loss]. here it is a loss as well as a gain. so do both according to the formula

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because midpoints were used to make similar triangles we can say

AC=2(DE)

5x+12=2(9x-20)

5x+12=18x-40

-13x+12=-40

-13x=-52

x=4

AC=5x+12

AC=5(4)+12

AC=20+12

AC=32
