it was X =5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hours = x.
Jay reads 55 pages per hour, so in x hours, he reads 55x pages.
After reading for x hours, he has 278 - 55x pages left to read.
Odhran reads 45 pages per hour, so in x hours, he reads 45x pages.
After reading for x hours, he has 238 - 45x pages left to read.
Since we want to know when they have the same number of pages left, we set the expressions equal and solve for x.
278 - 55x = 238 - 45x
Add 45x to both sides.
278 - 10x = 238
Subtract 278 from both sides.
-10x = -40
Divide both sides by -10.
x = 4
Answer: 4 hours
Answer:
b = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as
A = 
bh ( b is the base and h the height )
Here h = 3x + 15 and A = 15x + 75, thus
× b × (3x + 15) = 15x + 75
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
b(3x + 15) = 30x + 150
Divide both sides by (3x + 15)
b = 
← factor numerator and denominator
= 
← cancel the factor (x + 5) on numerator/denominator
= 
= 10
When you add all the number together you get 364.6 round it = 365
Because 6 is > 5
The area of square: s · s = s²
The area of rectangle: (s + 6) · s = s(s + 6)
So:
s² + s(s + 6) = 56
s² + s(s + 6) - 56 = 0
