Divide each term in the parentheses by 3ax
this gives 9x^2 - 3a
Answer:
5/14
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of cards is 8
There are 5 blue cards
P(1st card is blue) = blue/total = 5/8
We take away a blue card
The total number of cards is 7
There are 4 blue cards
P(2nd card is blue) = blue/total = 4/7
The probability of blue blue is P(blue blue ) =
P(1st card is blue)*P(2nd card is blue) =
5/8* 4/7
20/56
We can divide the top and bottom by 4
5/14
X + y = 13......x = 13 - y
2x - 3y = 1
2(13 - y) - 3y = 1
26 - 2y - 3y = 1
-2y - 3y = 1 - 26
-5y = -25
y = -25/-5
y = 5
x + y = 13
x + 5 = 13
x = 13 - 5
x = 8
<span>so, x = 8 and y = 5</span>
Answer: Option B is the cheaper deal (the 12 batteries for $14.76)
===========================================================
Explanation:
For the first deal we can say
3 batteries = 4.80 dollars
3/3 batteries = 4.80/3 dollars .... divide both sides by 3
1 battery = 1.60 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.60 per battery.
----------------------------------
For the second deal we could say
12 batteries = 14.76 dollars
12/12 batteries = 14.76/12 dollars .... divide both sides by 12
1 battery = 1.23 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.23 per battery.
This is the cheaper deal.
----------------------------------
So in short, you're dividing the total cost over the number of items to get the unit price.
