8, 72 pieces of recycling sorted into 9 bins will make 8 in each bin.
You add two equations together to eliminate a variable. This particular problem is nice, because it's already setup to eliminate X.
3x - 4y = 9
<span>-3x + 2y = 9
</span>
When we add these two together, 3x - 3x cancels each other out, leaving us with 0x, or nothing.
We continue with -4y + 2y (leaves us with -2y) and 9+9 (18).
-2y = 18
18/-2 = -9.
Now we have y = -9, and we can go back into the problems to solve for x.
<span>3x - 4(-9) = 9
</span>
3x + 36 = 9.
3x = -27
x = -9.
Confirm with the final equation:
-3(-9) + 2(-9) = 9
27 - 18 = 9
9 = 9 --- Confirmed.
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
In a square, its angles are all 90 degrees. So, cutting a square in half into two triangles from corner to corner produces 45 degree angles on both sides. Since the triangles are now 45-45-90 triangles, we can use the rule where the hypotenuse of the triangle is equal to the square root of 2 times the length of either side. So, the side length is 6.
Answer:
I can help but what is the question?
Step-by-step explanation:
The factors of 2 are 2, 1
The factors of 32 are 2,16 8,4 32,1
We see that (2*-4)-(1*-8)=-16
So the factored form is:
(2x-8)(x-4)
