A city has 5 houses for every 8 old houses. If there are 35 new houses in the city, how many old houses are there?

Mathematics
1 answer:
yanalaym [24]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

56 old houses

Step-by-step explanation:

For every 8 old houses there are 5, so there are 3 more.

For this reason, if there are 35 houses, it means that there are 5 times the houses.

So if we multiply 3 by 5 (which is the difference between old and new houses) it would give 21, which when adding it to 35 gives 56

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equation.<br>x + 2x - 6 = 0​
VLD [36.1K]

For this case we must solve the following quadratic equation:

x ^ 2 + 2x-6 = 0

Where:

a = 1\\b = 2\\c = -6

The solution is given by:

x = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2a}

Substituting:

x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {2 ^ 2-4 (1) (- 6)}} {2 (1)}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {4 + 24}} {2}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {28}} {2}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {2 ^ 2 * 7}} {2}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm2 \sqrt {7}} {2}\\x = -1 \pm \sqrt {7}

Thus, we have two roots:

x_ {1} = - 1+ \sqrt {7}\\x_ {2} = - 1- \sqrt {7}

ANswer:

x_ {1} = - 1+ \sqrt {7}\\x_ {2} = - 1- \sqrt {7}
