Answer:
you first start by making your equation: 45 +.25x = 70 +.15x. then subtract .15x from both sides. it should look like 45 +.10x = 70. subtract 45 from both sides then you get .10x = 25. divide 10 to both sides and you get 250. so the two companies will be the same at 250 texts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume=Length*Width*Height
Let t and p represent the numbers of turtles and pelicans, respectively.
... 2p + 4t = 114 . . . . . . . the number of legs is 114
... p + t = 34 . . . . . . . . . the number of animals is 34
Divide the first equation by 2 and subtract the second.
... (2p +4t)/2 - (p +t) = (114)/2 - 34
... t = 23 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
Then p = 34 - t = 11
There are 11 pelicans and 23 turtles.
_____
You can get to the same answer by considering the number of legs you would have if all the animals were pelicans. That would be 34*2 = 68. The is 46 fewer legs than there actually are. Each turtle that replaces one of those 34 pelicans adds 2 legs to the total, so to add 46 legs, we must replace 46/2 = 23 pelicans with turtles. That is, there are 23 turtles and 11 pelicans.
The first thing we must do for this case is to calculate the scale factor.
For this, we make the relationship between two parallel sides.
We have then:
Substituting values we have:
We are now looking for the value of AB
We have then:
Substituting values:
Answer:
The scale factor is:
The value of AB is:
