Answer:
7:12
Step-by-step explanation:
Total no of animals in the field = 7 + 5 = 12
Ratio of cows 2 all d animals in the field =

Ratio = 7/12 = 7:12

Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
18 - 7x = -20.5
Subtract 18 from each side:
-7x = -38.5
Divide both sides by -7:
x = -38.5 / -7
x = -5.5 = 5 1/2
The answer is D.
Answer:
a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor both expressions
x² - x - 6
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 1)
The factors are - 3 and + 2 , since
- 3 × 2 = - 6 and - 3 + 2 = - 1 , thus
x² - x - 6 = (x - 3)(x + 2)
-----------------------------------
x² + 3x - 18
consider factors of constant term (- 18) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 3)
The factors are + 6 and - 3 , since
6 × - 3 = - 18 and 6 - 3 = + 3 , thus
x² + 3x - 18 = (x + 6)(x - 3)
Both expressions have a common factor of (x - 3)
Compare with (x - a ), then a = 3
