Okay I did the work and I think it’s either answer a or b but goodluck sorry
But I still don’t understand this.
<span>95=6x-5(-x-8)
Distribute the -5
95 = 6x + 5x + 40
Subtract 40 from both sides and combine like terms
55 = 11x
Divide both sides by 11
x=5</span>
18 is the answer because... Woodwinds have 6, Percussion has 3, and Brass has 9! Hope that I helped! :)
Answer:
0 < x ≤ 12 and 0 < y ≤ 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, x represents the number of female gazelles and y represents the number of male gazelles.
The zoo only has room for 12 female gazelles.
∵ The number of rooms must be more than or equal to the total female gazelles ,
12 ≥ x
Also, number of animals can not be negative,
And, it must be greater than 0.
⇒ 0 < x ≤ 12,
⇒ 3(0) < 3x ≤ 3(12)
⇒ 0 < 3x ≤ 36
∵ Number of males gazelles = 3 × number of female gazelles
⇒ y = 3x
⇒ 0 < y ≤ 36
Hence, the constraints to represent a thriving population of gazelles at the zoo are,
0 < x ≤ 12,
0 < y ≤ 36
Answer:
x^2 - 64
Step-by-step explanation:
A difference of squares is a special product in the form (a^2 - b^2)..their factored form is (a - b)(a + b)..
Thus here a = x and b = 8, thus if x + 8 is a factor, then x - 8 is also a factor..
(x + 8)(x - 8) <-- expand this out using difference of squares rules..
= (x)^2 - (8)^2
= x^2 - 64 <-- answer...
You could also expand that using FOIL (FOIL - first, outer, inner, last)..
(x + 8)(x - 8)
= (x)(x) + (x)(-8) + (8)(x) + (8)(-8)
= x^2 - 8x + 8x - 64 <-- the -8x and 8x cancels out..leaving you with..
= x^2 - 64
