Step-by-step explanation:
4w (w - 3) = 24
4w^2 - 12w = 24
4w^2 - 12w - 24 = 0
use calculator, EQN if using Casio
the answer will be
w = _____ w = _____
75/4=25 pages per hour, so, now we have to divide 250 by 25.
250/25=10
So, it would take Joan 10 hours to read 250 pages. :)
When you plug the equation into a graphing calculator the x-intercept is -5
Or you can set the equation equal to 0 and solve for x.
Answer:
You will have 128 orange marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this up as an equation
Variable x = number of orange marbles
3/8 = 48/x
Cross multiply
3 × x = 8 × 48
3x = 384
Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable
3x ÷ 3 = 384 ÷ 3
1x = 128
x = 128
128 orange marbles
Check work:
Substitute the variable x for the answer
3/8 = 48/128
Cross multiply
3 × 128 = 8 × 48
384 = 384
If the numbers equal, the answer is correct
Answer:
-3x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(x - 2) to find the equivalent of this expression, we need to multiply inside the parenthesis with -3 (with both x and -2)
-3(x - 2 = -3x + 6 (two negative expressions multiplied results in positive)
