Unit rate means one. So the best way to solve this is using a proportion over one. If there are 258 pencils in 3 purses 258/3 then how many are in one purses x/1. Cross multiply next.
258/3 * x/1. You get 3x and 258. To get the x alone, divide both sides by three. Your answer is 86 pencils in one purse.
Area = Length * Width
A = 1/2 * 3/4
A = 3/8
In short, Your Answer would be 3/8 Ft^2
Hope this helps!
X^2+3x=24, halve the linear coefficient, square it, and add it to both sides
In this case (3/2)^2=2.25
x^2+3x+2.25=26.25 now the left side is a perfect square...
(x+1.5)^2=26.25 take the square root of both sides
x+1.5=±√26.25 subtract 1.5 from both sides
x=-1.5±√26.25
x=-1.5-√26.25 and -1.5+√26.25
x≈ -6.62 and 3.62
Consider the number of the adult tickets is x
X+2x=276
3x=276
X=92
So the student tickets is =184
