Hey there!
17 is greater than 20/5 because 20 divided by 5=4
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Choice E and F
Discussion:
From the quadratic formula with a = 3, b = -1, and c = 6
x = ( -b +\- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac) ) / (2a) => substitute in a,b,c from above
x = ( -(-1) +\- sqrt((-1)^2 - 4(3)(6)) / (2*3) => discriminant = 1 - 72 = -71)
x = ( 1 +\- sqrt(-71))/ 6
which are choices E and F
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
The total number of books is 1020.
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote the books by their first letter.
From the provided information:
Compute the expression of <em>T</em> as follows:
Compute the value of <em>C</em> in terms of <em>A</em>:
Compute the value of <em>A</em> as follows:
Use expressions (i) and (ii):
Compute the value of <em>T</em> as follows:
Thus, the total number of books is 1020.
x=23
Simplifying
(3x + -50) + (7x)
Reorder the terms:
(-50 + 3x) + (7x)
Remove parenthesis around (-50 + 3x)
-50 + 3x + (7x) =
Combine like terms: 3x + (7x)
-50 + 10x
Solving
-50 + 10x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '50' to each side of the equation.
-50 + 50 + 10x = 180 + 50
Combine like terms: -50 + 50 = 0
0 + 10x = 180 + 50
10x = 180 + 50
Combine like terms: 180 + 50 = 230
10x = 230
Divide each side by '10'.
Simplifying
x = 23
