So you have to find something that multiples to six but also somehow either subtracts or adds to five. So I would pick 2 and 3 because two plus three is five. Then you would write out your equation
X2+2x+5x+6
This may not be the way your teacher taught however it is much easier for me to do it this way.
Answer:
-4 and -2
Step-by-step explanation:
(X+4)(x+2)
4×2=8
4+2=6

Answer:
36 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
3
Please write the ratio as 3:5 or as --------
5
Note that 3 + 5 = 8, so that the fraction of boys in the club is 3/8 and that of girls is 5/8.
How many are in the club altogether? Let this count be represented by c. Then (5/8)c = 60.
Multiplying both sides of this equation by (8/5), to isolate c, we get:
c = (8/5)(60) = 96. Thus, there are 96 Science students altogether.
3/8 of this number are boys. This comes out to (3/8)(96) = 36 boys.
We could also solve this problem in the following manner:
3 b
------ = ------- , where b represents the number of boys.
5 60
Then 5b = 180. Dividing both sides by 5, we get b = 180/5 = 36 boys
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+2=3x+4(2x-1)
5x+2=3x+8x-4
5x+2=11x-4
5x-11x=-4-2
-6x=-6
6x=6
x=1
