Let, the integers = x,(x+1)
x*(x+1) = 56
x²+x = 56
x²+x-56 = 0
x²+8x-7x-56=0
x(x+8)-7(x+8)=0
x+8= 0 OR x-7=0
x = -8 OR x = 7
it would be -8 & -7 or 7 & 8
Answer:
a:x=-3
c:x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
It's the bottom one. Miko found the incorrect and checked her work using multipication incorrectly.
This is because the correct way to solve this would to use (5/1) * (3/5) = (15/5) then simplify it to 3/1 or simply 3.
Dividing fractions is simply flipping the second fraction and then multiplying across
Answer: a) Length of wire to replace old one=9ft
b) Length of wire=3.09ft
Leftover wire=0.91ft
Step-by-step explanation: from the right angle triangle, Tan&=20/15
&=53.13°
Length of wire,x=cos 31.13=x/15
15cos31.13
X=9
b) Tan&=10/6
Tan^-110/6
&=59.05
Length= 6cos59.04
X=3.09
4-3.09=.91= leftover wire
Hi there! So 39,300 copies of a book were sold on debut month of release, and that represents 6.3% of all copies sold to date. To find the total amount of copies sold, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:
39,300/x = 6.3/100
We set it up like this because 39,300 is part of the total amount, and it represents 6.3% of the total book sales. Percents are parts of 100, which is why 6.3 is above 100. Let's cross multiply the values. 39,300 * 100 is 3,930,000. 6.3 * x is 6.3x. that makes 3,930,000 = 6.3x. Divide each side by 6.3 to isolate the x. 6.3x/6.3 cancels out. 3,930,000/6.3 is 623,809.5238 or 623,810 when rounded to the nearest whole number. There. The total amount of copies sold to date is about 623,810.
