Answer:
x=3 y=11
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3=9
2x=6
x=3
y-4=7
y=11
We have to solve this quadratic equation 
for n to get <em>which figure has 56 blocks</em>.
For middle term factorization, we need <em>two numbers that multiplied gives us -56 and added gives us 1 (coefficient of n).</em>
<em>Such two numbers are </em><em>8</em><em> and </em><em>-7</em><em>. We can now write,</em>
<em>
</em>
<u><em>"There is no negative figure number possible, so we disregard -8"</em></u>
Our answer is 7.
ANSWER: The 7th figure has 56 blocks.
Answer:
It must be the cost of the one table.
Step-by-step explanation:
It's logic. 25x is the cost of the (unknown) number of chairs.
The total Amount he spent is the cost of the chairs <u>plus</u> what he spent on the table.
Answer:
20/7 days (just less than 3 days)
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that (1 job) = (rate)(time), so time = (1 job) / (rate).
Set up and solve the following equation:
1 job
------------------------------- = time required for 2 pumps working together
1 job 1 job
---------- + -------------
4 days 10 days
This comes out to:
1 job
------------------------------------------- = time required
10 job-days 4 job-days
------------------ + -----------------
40 days 40 days
or:
1 job
-------------------- = (40/14) days, or 20/7 days (just less than 3 days)
14 job·days
-----------------
40 days
Multiply straight across
5/1 * 3/4 = 15/4
now change it into a mixed number
3 3/4
