Answer:
a. 20x > 10x + 80
b. •20x > 10x + 80
• Subtract 10x from both sides: 20x -10x > 10x + 80 - 10x
• Simplify: 10x > 80
• Divide both sides by 10: 10x/10 > 80/10
• Simplify: x > 8
Step-by-step explanation:
10x + 80 = number of seashells Pilar has.
20x = number of seashells Marisol has.
answer for a: 20x > 10x + 80
answer for b: 20x > 10x + 80
• Subtract 10x from both sides: 20x -10x > 10x + 80 - 10x
• Simplify: 10x > 80
• Divide both sides by 10: 10x/10 > 80/10
• Simplify: x > 8
Answer:
3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert 1/5 to a decimal which is .20.
Then multiply by 3.
Maybe 3 or 6 or 8, the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism = a * b * c. A<span>, B, C are the length, width, and height. and 3*6*8=144</span>
Answer:
Cameron’s solution is unreasonable because 17 times 9 is 153, and 153 is not close to his product.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle:
The area of a rectangle, of length l and height h, is given by:

The length of a rectangular wall is 16.5 feet. The height of the wall is 8.625 feet.
This means that 
Estimate of the area:
To use an "easy" multiplication, lets consider
. So

Cameron determines the area of the wall to be 1423.125 square feet.
Very far from the area of 153, which means that he made a confusion with the decimal places. Thus, the correct answer is:
Cameron’s solution is unreasonable because 17 times 9 is 153, and 153 is not close to his product.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the smallest number is 'x', then the other number = x +1
x*(x+1)= 420
Use distributive property
x*x + x*1 = 420
x² + x - 420 =0 ------> this is the required quadratic equation.
