Answer: 1) Both gave same number of candies to each child.

2) Christov gave candy to a greater number of children.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Christov initially had 300 pieces of candy, and after he was visited by 17 children, he had 249 pieces left.

Let he gave x candy to each student when he visited 17 children.

Then, 17 x + 249 = 300

⇒ 17 x = 51

⇒ x = 3

Since, he distributes candies in a constant speed.

Therefore, his speed of distribution = 3 candies per child

Now,The function that shows the remaining number of candies Mateus has after distributing candies to n children,

C(n)=270 - 3 n

Initially, n = 0

C(0) = 270

⇒ Mateus has initial number of candies = 270

When he gave candies to one child then remaining candies = 270 - 3 × 1 = 267

Thus, the candies, get by a child from Mateus = 270 - 267 = 3

Since, he distributes candies in a constant speed.

⇒ His speed of distribution = 3 candies per child

1) Therefore, Both Christov and Mateus have same speed of distribution.

2) Since, both have same seed.

⇒ The one who has greater number of candies will be distribute more.

⇒ Christov will give more candies.

Find the value of x in this equation. 25(4x − 3) − 2x = 45 − x
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

x=40/33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

25(4x−3)−2x=45−x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

25(4x−3)−2x=45−x

(25)(4x)+(25)(−3)+−2x=45+−x(Distribute)

100x+−75+−2x=45+−x

(100x+−2x)+(−75)=−x+45(Combine Like Terms)

98x+−75=−x+45

98x−75=−x+45

Step 2: Add x to both sides.

98x−75+x=−x+45+x

99x−75=45

Step 3: Add 75 to both sides.

99x−75+75=45+75

99x=120

Step 4: Divide both sides by 99.

99x

99

please answer fast!!! drag each figure to show if it is similar to the figure shown or why it is not similar
igomit [66]

Answer:

The similar figures are shown in the attached drawing created with Microsoft Visio;

The similar figures are the rectangles in figures 2, and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given figure is a rectangle with dimensions of 3 yd. by 9 yd., therefore the length = 3 × The width of the rectangle

1) The 9 yd. by 18 yd. figure is a rectangle with the length = 2 × The width of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is not similar to the given rectangle

2) The 3 yd. by 1 yd. figure is a rectangle with the width = 3 × The length of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is similar to the given rectangle

3) The figure is a trapezium, while the given figure is a rectangle, therefore, they are not similar

4) The 6 yd. by 3 yd. figure is a rectangle with the width = 2 × The length of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is not similar to the given rectangle

5) The 6 yd. by 18 yd. figure is a rectangle with the length = 3 × The width of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is similar to the given rectangle

6) The 2 yd. by 8 yd. figure is a rectangle with the length = 4 × The width of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is not similar to the given rectangle

Explanation:

-8x = 140

  • Divide both sides by -8

-8x / -8 = 140 / -8

x = ⁻³⁵⁄₂

  • Simplify

x = -17.5
