The answer is 1253/10,000
Answer:
90 hardcover books
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by setting up a couple of equations.
Let's allow x to represent the number of paperbacks Tim owns, and allow y to represent the number of hardcover books he owns.
Using the information in the question, we can write the equations:
1)x = 4y-3
2) x+y=447
Let's rearrange equation 1 so that it is in standard form:
x-4y=-3
And then let's multiply equation 2 by 4 so that we can cancel out y when we solve the system of equations:
4(x+y=447)
4x+4y=1,788
Then we can add the two equations and solve for x:
1) x-4y=-3
+ 2)4x+4y=1,788
------------------------------------
5x=1,785
x=357
So now we now the number of paperback books Tim has is 357. Let's plug this into one of the original equations to solve for the number of hardcover books (y):
357+y=447
y=90
And now we know that Tim owns 90 hardcover books.
The speed in feet per second may be calculated by the proper dimensional analysis and the given conversion factors. That is,
(40 mile / hr) x (5280 feet / 1 mile) x (1 hr / 3600 s) = 58.67 ft / s
Thus, the Jackrabbits' speed may also be expressed as 58.67 ft / s.
Answer: (x-1)(3x+8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Slide and divide method
See what multiplies to get -24 (because of 3 and -8) and what adds to get 5
Put those into factoring form (x-3)(x+8) without a number in front of the x’s
Divide the numbers by what isn’t in front of the x’s (-3/3 and 8/3)
Simplify them and if it doesn’t divide perfectly, put the denominator in front of the x
Solution
**I can’t explain it well but watch a video on the method AND ONLY DO IT IF IT WORKS WELL FOR YOU**
