We want to get rid of the stuff in the denomenator
gcd of the denomenator is 2x
but wait, we can get rid of the deonmenator in the numerator by multiplying by 4x
muliplty the whole thing by 4x/4x
we get
To find the total of what you sold for each package, you'll need to write two equations. Know that x = paper plate packages and y = utensil packages.
First, x + y = 15 shows that there has to be fifteen packages, and 8x + 5y = 90 shows the $ made from selling a certain number of packages.
Next, you can solve by substitution, so change x + y = 15 to y = 15 - x.
To find our x, substitute the y in 8x + 5y = 90 to get
8x + 5(15 - x) = 90
Distribute: 8x + 75 - 5x = 90
Combine the X's and subtract the 75: 3x = 15
Divide the 3: x = 5
Now with our x, we can put 5 into the original equation x + y = 15 to get 5 + y = 15. Subtracting the 5, we get y = 10.
So, you have delivered 5 paper plate packages and 10 utensil packages.
Answer:
<u>Width = 7 inches</u>
<u>Length = 23 inches</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Equating to area :
- (2x + 9)(x) = 161
- 2x² + 9x = 161
- 2x² + 9x - 161 = 0
- 2x² - 14x + 23x - 161 = 0
- 2x(x - 7) + 23(x - 7) = 0
- x - 7 = 0
- x = 7
Dimensions are :
- <u>Width = 7 inches</u>
- Length = 2(7) + 9
- <u>Length = 23 inches</u>
