There were 75 people surveyed

Step-by-step explanation:

People leaving an ice cream store were asked to name their favorite flavor of ice cream

  • Fifty-one people said chocolate was their favorite flavor
  • 68% of the people surveyed said chocolate

We need to find how many people were surveyed

Assume that x people were surveyed

∵ 51 people said chocolate was their favorite flavor

∵ 68% of the people surveyed said chocolate

∵ x people were surveyed

- That means 68% of x is equivalent to 51

∴ 68% × x = 51

∵ 68% = 68 ÷ 100 = 0.68

∴ 0.68 x = 51

- Divide both sides by 0.68

∴ x = 75

There were 75 people surveyed

First, we know that y is equal to -8x, so we can move the -8x to replace y in the first equation, then in the first equation we get -8x=6x-14, subtract 6x on both sides, -14x=-14, x=1

The Smith Family is designing new plans for an in ground pool. Mr. Smith draws a rectangular shape with a length that is 5 feet
kumpel [21]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1- The formula for calculate the area of this rectangle is:

A=LH

Where L is the length and H is the heigth.

2. Let's call identify the heigth with the variable x.

3. If the length is 5ft longer than the heigth, you have:

L=x+5

4. Therefore, you can write the following polynomial expression:

A(x)=x(x+5)\\ A(x)=x^{2} +5x

5. If you know the value of the heigth, you can susbstitute it into the polynomial expression shown above and you will obtain the area.

Therefore, the answer is: A(x)=x^{2} +5x
