The solution to the problem is as follows:
Since -1/2 is the greatest common factor of the two terms,
(-1/2)x + 6 = (-1/2) (x - 3)
The factored form therefore is (-1/2) (x - 3). I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
x2+4=3x+8
Step 1: Subtract 3x+8 from both sides.
x2+4−(3x+8)=3x+8−(3x+8)
x2−3x−4=0
Step 2: Factor left side of equation.
(x+1)(x−4)=0
Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.
x+1=0 or x−4=0
x=−1 or x=4
Answer:
x=−1 or x=4
let
x = the number of party favors in each of the 27 boxes
y = the number of party favors in the last box
the total number of party favors is 1,552
27x + y = 1,552
since 1552 = 57*27 + 13
if we assume that y<x we conclude that there are 57 party favors in each of the 27 boxes and 13 party favors in the last box.
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.
First, you have to set up a system of equations. You can see all of my work and explanation on the picture attached! The answer is 40 adult tickets. I hope this helped you!! :))
There are two ways you could do this:
1. (if you have a calculator) This is called decimal multipliers, and basically all you do is multiply 160 by 1.3 because 1.3 is 1 (160) and 0.3 (30%) so you would get 208.
2. (without a calculator) This is the 'long way'. You do 160 ÷ 10 = 16 = 10%, and then 16 × 3 = 48 = 30%. After this you just add 48 on to 160 to get 208.
Hope this helps!
