Answer:
m/6+ n/3 +1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solid paper costs 1.75 each
Printed paper costs 2.50 each
Given:
Ben = $43.50 (12 rolls solid paper and 9 rolls of printed paper)
Joel = $51.50 (8 rolls solid paper and 15 rolls of printed paper)
Let x = solid paper
Let y = printed paper
12x + 9y = 43.50
8x + 15y = 51.50
Find x:
8x + 15y = 51.50
8x = 51.50 - 15y
x = (51.50 - 15y)/8
Substitute x:
12x + 9y = 43.50
12(51.50 - 15y)/8 + 9y = 43.50
(618 - 180y)/8 + 9y = 43.50
8 (618 - 180y)/8 + 8*9y = 43.50 * 8
618 - 180y + 72y = 348
-108y = 348 - 618
-108y = -270
-108y/-108 = -270/-108
y = 2.50
x = (51.50 - 15y)/8
x = (51.50 - 15(2.5) /8
x = (51.50 - 37.50)/8
x = 14/8
x = 1.75
To check: x = 1.75 ; y = 2.5
12x + 9y = 43.50
12(1.75) + 9(2.5) = 43.50
21 + 22.50 = 43.50
43.50 = 43.50
8x + 15y = 51.50
8(1.75) + 15(2.5) = 51.50
14 + 37.50 = 51.50
51.50 = 51.50
The expression (-4x + 9)^2 cannot be equal to (-4x)^2 + 9^2 because it is actually equal to the product of two factors (3 + 2sqrt x) (3- 2 sqrt x). One cannot use obviously distributive property. Hence the answer to this problem should be C. as she did not understand both perfect square trinomial and did not determine the product
