Step-by-step explanation:
A quadrilateral is made up of four sides. This means the sum of all the side equals 43. This is given as;
(x + 7) + (x² - 2x
) + (x +3) + (2x - 2) = 43
x² - 2x + 4x + 8 = 43
x² - 2x - 35 = 0
Upon solving for x by factorization;
( x - 5) ( x + 7) = 0
The values of x are; 5 and - 7
Since the side of shape cannot have a negative value, -7 is ignored.
x = 5
The length of the sides are;
- X+7 = 5 + 7 = 12
- x² - 2x = 5² - 2(5) = 25 - 10 = 15
- X+3 = 5 + 3 = 8
2x-2 = 2(5) - 2 = 10 -2 = 8
Check:
8 + 8 + 15 + 12 = 43
I hope I can help!
(9x+4)-(5x+3)
4x + 7
Answer=15X
$45/3 hours = $15/hour
(b) To see how much Louis makes per hour, simply plug in 1 for the hours value x:
y = 12(1 hours)
y = $12/hour
Thus Carl makes more than Louis.
(c) The equation of Carl's dollars per hour is similar to Louis':
Answer:
(x+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
factor out the equation and get
(x+2)(6x-5)
Hello,
Let's assume f the age of the father,
s the age of the son.
<span>The age of a father is 2 less than 7 times the age of his son ==> f=7s-2 (1)
</span>
<span>In 3 years, the sum of their ages will be 52 ==>(f+3)+(s+3)=52 (2)
(2)==>f+s+6=52
==>f+s=46 (3)
(3) and (1) ==>7s-2+s=46
==>8s=48
==>s=6
f=46-6=40
