6x + 2 - 2 = 14 - 2
6x/6 = 12/6
x = 2
This might be wrong but I got 120/1008
Total no. of buttons = 300 + 700 + 1000
+ 500 = 2500
Possibility for a person to pick a pink button = 300/2500 = (3/25)%
Amount of pink buttons she can expect her friends to pick = 50(3/25) = 6
She can expect to make 6 pink barrettes.
First you have to set up your equation. 5x+80 and x+15.
Let 1st integer = xLet 2nd integer = x + 1 We set up an equation. x(x + 1) = 195 x2 + x = 195 x2 + x - 195 = 0
We will use the quadratic formula: x = (-b ± √(b2 - 4ac) / (2a) x = (-1 ± √(1 - 4(-195))) / 2 x = (-1 ± √(781)) / 2 x = (-1 ± 27.95) / 2 x = 13.48x = -14.78
<span>We determine which value of x when substituted gives us a product of 195.</span> 13.48(14.48) = 195.19-14.48(-13.48) = 195.19 <span>The solution is 2 sets of two consecutive number</span> <span>Set 1</span> The 1st consecutive integer is 13.48The 2nd consecutive integer is 14.48
<span>Set 2</span> The 1st consecutive integer is -14.48The 2nd consecutive integer is -13.48Hopefully this helped, hard work lol :)
