Answer:
This cannot be solved but it can be simplified
first we open the bracket
so we have
a²- abx/x = 2/3
next we cross multiply so it will be 3(a² - abx) = 2x
we get
3a² - 3abx = 2x
Next we factorise so we can get
3a(a-bx) =2x
I dont know what exactly you where asked but I hop this helps
6 songs
The way to find this answer is to divide 18 by 3, which is six, which means that after every six songs a commercial is played.
Hope this was helpful and that I explained it correctly.
Answer:
f(x) = -3x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The chart could be represented like this:
x y
0 12
1 9
2 6
3 3
Suppose that f(x) = y
And substitute x values.
y = -3x + 12
"x = 0"
y = -3(0) + 12
y = 0 + 12
y = 12
"x = 3"
y = -3(3) + 12
y = -9 + 12
y = 3
From the results, it corresponds to the function.
So j completed 6/7 of a lap
gabe has completed 2/9 lap
so
1 j lap=7 mins s o
7j
j=num of laps
1 g lap=9 mins so
9g
g=num of laps
then 6+j
and g+2
so
when will the times be equal
7j+6=9g+2
subtract 2 from both sides
7j+4=9g
divide both sides by 9
7/9j+4/9=g
so to get a whole number of laps, we must subsitute a number when it is multiplied by 7 then add 4, we get a multiplue of 9
so if j=2
7/9(2)+4/9=g=14/9+4/9=g=18/9=g=2
so josh and gabe must run 2 lap each because
6+(2 times 7)=2+(9 times 2)
6+14=2+18
20=20
true so
the answer is 2 laps
