Hi there!
From what I know, when you multiply one number in a ratio, you must also multiply the other number by the same number. This allows for the ratio to stay the same, thus keeping it correct. If both terms were not multiplied by n, the ratio would no longer be the correct ratio.
Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
Answer:
after two months because
40 + 10 + 10 = 60
AND
30 + 15 + 15 = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<u>Definitely not equivalent. </u>
Exponent rules state that whenever you multiply terms with the same power, you add the powers together and multiply the coefficients.
x^3*3*3 is equivalent to something like ((x^3)^3)^3 or x^27
x^3 * x^3 * x^3 would be x^3+3+3 or x^9
The area of the blanket - 24 ft²
length being longer than the width means that blanket is a rectangle
width of the blanket = x
length of blanket = x +2
area = length * width
area = x * (x+2)
= x² + 2x
since area = 24
x² + 2x = 24
x² + 2x - 24 = 0
we have a quadratic equation and we need to now solve for x
x² + 6x - 4x - 24 = 0
x (x + 6) - 4(x + 6) = 0
(x-4) (x+6) = 0
x-4 = 0 or x + 6 = 0
x = 4 or x = -6
x could be either 4 or -6. since dimensions cannot have negative values,
x ≠ -6
therefore x = 4
width = 4 ft
length = 6 ft
