Let x be the number of new laptops and y be the number of tablets that
the company should buy. The equations that best show the given
conditions are as follows,
x + y = 30
515x + 285y = 11080
Solving simultaneously for the values of x and y gives an answer of x = 11 and y = 19.
Thus, the business should buy 11 laptops and 19 tablets.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We we can split 4p into 9p - 5p, and now we have 3p² + 9p - 5p - 15 = 0. We can take out 3p from the first 2 terms and -5 from the last 2 terms. This gets us 3p (p + 3) -5 (p + 3) = 0. These two terms have (p + 3) as a common facor, so we can take that out as well, which give us (p + 3)(3p - 5) = ). Using Zero Product Property, p + 3 = 0 and 3p - 5 = 0, and when we solve each equation, we get p = -3, p= 5/3.
2. We will use the same process.
6x² + 14x - 3x - 7 = 0
2x (3x+7) - 1 (3x+7) = 0
(3x + 7)(2x - 1) = 0
3x + 7 = 0, 2x - 1 = 0
x = -7/3, x=1/2
Hope this helps!
