Hi there

To know if you are going to divide in a word problem, you should look out for key words.

Some examples of key words for division might be per, a, out of, ratio of, or quotient of. Sometimes, the word problem might straight up tell you to divide.

If you have an example word problem, I could try to help you with it.

Good luck!

You can represent the measures of an angle and its complement as x° and (90 − x)°. Similarly, you can represent the measures of
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

180° - x = 5 · ( 90° - x )

180° - x = 450° - 5 x

5 x - x = 450° - 180°

4 x = 270°

x = 270° : 4

x = 67.5°

The measure of an angle is 67.5°.

Its complement angle: 22.5°.

Its supplement angle: 112.5°

112.5° = 5 x 22.5

artcher [175]

Answer:

5.50p+45\leq 80\\\\p\leq 6.36\\\\\Rightarrow p\leq 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben\ invited\ p\ peoples\\\\

Charges of birthday party:

Flat\ fees=\$ 45\\\\Per\ person\ charges=\$ 5.50\\\\Charges\ for\ p\ people=p\times per\ person\ charges\\\\Charges\ for\ p\ people=p\times 5.50\\\\Charges\ for\ p\ people=5.50p\\\\Total\ charges\ for\ party=flat\ fee+charges\ for\ p\ person\\\\Total\ charges\ for\ party=45+5.50p

Ben\ has\ money=\$ 80\\\\Ben\ can\ not\ spend\ more\ than\ that.\\\\\Rightarrow Party\ charges\ for\ p\ peoples\leq 80\\\\5.50p+45\leq 80\\\\5.50p+45-45\leq 80-45\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ subtract\ 45\ from\ both\ sides\\\\5.50p\leq  35\\\\p\leq \frac{35}{5.5}\\\\p\leq 6.36\approx 6\\\\p\leq  6

What are scale drawings? can you give an example?
Alecsey [184]
Scale Drawings are drawings that are used to show the true size of something.
Scale drawings are most commonly used in maps, or in large scale drawings. These show the scale of something. It may show that 1cm is equivalent to 1km, which would allow someone to measure the map to see how far the distance it. It also allows a map to be made smaller, and less detailed- making it often easier to read.
Hope this helps :)

Let a= x^2 +4. Rewrite the following equation in terms of a and set it equal to zero.
dusya [7]

Answer:


If:

a=x^{2}+4    (1)


And we have to rewrite the following expresion in terms of a:


{(x^{2}+4)}^{2}+32=12x^{2}+48   (2)


Firstly we have to rearrange the right side of equation (2) in terms of  x^{2}+4, factorizing by the common factor:


{(x^{2}+4)}^{2}+32=12(x^{2}+4)


Then, we can substitute x^{2}+4 by a:


a^{2}+32=12a


And set it equal to zero:

a^{2}-12a+32=0>>>>This is the resulting equation


Now, each term of an algebraic expresion (like the equation above) is composed of sign, coefficient, variable and exponent. The terms are separated from each other by the plus sign (+) or the minus sign (-).



In this case, the variable is a and the number that multiplies the variable (the coefficient) is -12, whereas the constant (which is the term with no variable) is 32
