Let unknown integer be n.
So then your sentence would translate to 3n² + n = 2.
If you need to solve for n then we can move 2 to left side by subtract both sides by 2:
3n² + n - 2 = 0
Now you can factor:
3n² + 3n -2n - 2 = 0
3n( n + 1 ) - 2( n + 1 ) = 0
( 3n - 2 )( n + 1 ) = 0
3n - 2 = 0 OR n + 1 = 0
3n = 2 OR n = -1
n = 2/3 OR n = -1
Final answer: n = 2/3 OR n = -1
Answer:
x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x+4)- 5 = 3x+3
Distribute
2x+8-5 = 3x+3
Subtract x values
8-5 = x+3
3 = x+3
Final Subtraction
x = 0
If his water to cement ratio is 20 to 30, this means that if he uses 20 liters of water, he'd use 30 liters of cement.
The total mixture would then be 20+30=50 liters.
and the water would be 20/50=0.4 or 40% of the total mixture.
