The equation given in the question is
2s + s + 12 = 132
3s + 12 = 132
3s = 132 - 12
3s = 120
s = 120/3
= 40
From the above deduction we can see that the value of the unknown variable comes out to be exactly 40. This is possible because there is a single unknown variable and a single equation to get the value of the variable from. So the correct option among all the options given in the question is option "D".
Answer:
9 people can go
Step-by-step explanation:
6.50 is a one-time deal. we take that away once and we're done with it.
155 - 6.50 = 148.5
148.5 / 16.50 = 9
Answer:
Width = 2
Length = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
let A be the area of the rectangle
L be the length of the rectangle
w be the width of the rectangle
<u><em>Formula</em></u>: ‘<u><em>area of a rectangle</em></u>’
A = L × w
…………………………………………………
A = L × w
⇔ 10 = (w + 3) × w
⇔ 10 = w² + 3w
⇔ w² + 3w - 10 = 0
<u><em>Solving the quadratic equation</em></u> w² + 3w - 10 = 0 :
Δ = 3² - 4(1)(-10) = 9 - (-40) = 9 + 40 = 49
then √Δ = 7
-5 is not valid ,because w represents the width
which must be a positive number
Then w = 2
<u><em>Conclusion</em></u>:
Width = 2
Length = 2 + 3 = 5
C. The answer is C because the total amount of students is 14, and there are 4 boys, which makes the ratio 4 boys to 14 students in total. 4 and 14 are both divisable by 2, so divide 4 to get 2 and divide 14 to get 7. This leaves you with 2 and 7. The ratio would be 2 boys to 7 total students. Hope this helped
