You factor out primes from the root, for example:
root 100
you can get 10 from it, or we'll use 5
100/5=20
20/5=4
root 4= 2
because there are 2 "5" we can bring that out of the root, there are 2 "2" so we bring that out too.
When a number is taking out of a root, the 2 exact same numbers become one. in this case, there are ONE 5 and ONE 2 outside the root. then You multiply 5 and 2 together, and you get 10
STEP 1:
determine equations needed
x= # of $10 tickets
y= # of $14 tickets
QUANTITY EQUATION
x + y= 800
COST EQUATION
$10x + $14y= $9,040
STEP 2:
multiply quantity equation by -14
-14(x + y)= -14(800)
-14x - 14y= -11,200
STEP 3:
add new quantity equation in step 2 to cost equation of step 1 to solve for x using elimination
-14x - 14y= -11,200
10x + 14y= 9040
y term cancels out
-4x= -2160
divide both sides by -4
x= 540 ten dollar tickets
STEP 4:
substitute x value in step 3 into either original equation
x + y= 800
540 + y= 800
subtract 540 from both sides
y= 260 fourteen dollar tickets
ANSWER: There were 540 $10 tickets and 260 $14 tickets sold.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
These 2 angles are <u>alternate exterior</u> so they're equal to each other.
x + 127 = 125
x = 125 - 127
x = -2
5 (7 + 23)
(Use distributive property to solve)
1. 5*7 + 5*23
2. 35 + 115
3. 150
