You can use the quadratic formula with it which will be easier
or simple factoring
it will be (5x-11)(7x+4)
Answer:
A. 1.5 cm by 2.5 cm
B. 27 cm by 45 cm
C. 9 cm by 15 cm
D. 30 cm by 50 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions of the original painting = 12 cm by 20 cm painting
Hence, the proportion is:
12/20 = 0.6
Hence, we compare the options given in the question.
A. 1.5 cm by 2.5 cm
= 1.5/2.5 = 0.6 , option A is correct
B. 27 cm by 45 cm
27cm/45 cm = 0.6 Option B is correct
C. 9 cm by 15 cm
9cm/15cm = 0.6 , Option C is correct
D. 30 cm by 50 cm
30 cm /50 cm = 0.6 Option D is correct
E. 6 cm by 14 cm
6cm/14 cm = 0.4285714286
Option E is not correct
Therefore, Options A to D are the correct options
things were not as complicated when I was in middle school.
X=8 because add 11 to both sides and it becomes 28=3.5x and divide both sides by 3.5 so x=8
A)
Let x represent the cost of 1 student, and y the cost of 1 teacher.
B)
In the first group, there's 25 students and 2 teachers. Their total cost is $97.50
So 25x + 2y = 97.50
In the second group, there's 32 students and 3 teachers. Their total cost is $127
So 32x + 3y = 127
We get the following system of equations:
25x + 2y = 97.50 (1)
32x + 3y = 127 (2)
C)
25x + 2y = 97.50 (1)
32x + 3y = 127 (2)
In equation (1)
25x + 2y = 97.50
25x + 2y - 2y = 97.50 - 2y
25x = 97.50 - 2y
25x / 25 = 97.50/25 - 2y/25
x = 3.9 - (2/25)y
In equation (2), let's replace x by its algebraic value
32x + 3y = 127
32(-2/25y + 3.9) + 3y = 127
11/25y + 124.8 = 127
11/25y + 124.8 - 124.8 = 127 - 124.8
11/25y = 2.2
(11/25y) / (11/25) = 2.2 / (11/25)
y = 5
x = -2/25y + 3.9
x = -2/25 * 5 + 3.9
x = 3.5
So the cost of each student is $3.5, and the cost of each teacher is $5.
Hope this helps! :)
