1) factorised is (x+4)(x+1)=0
So x=-4 x=-1

2) factorised is (a-4)(a-3)=0
So a=4 a=3

A triangle has side lengths measuring 2x 2 ft, x 3 ft, and n ft. which expression represents the possible values of n, in feet?

swat32

The expression x – 1 < n < 3x + 5 represents the possible values of n, in feet whose side lengths are (2x+2) ft, (x+3) ft, and n ft.

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

The triangle can be defined as a three-sided polygon in geometry, and it consists of three vertices and three edges. The sum of all the angles inside the triangle is 180°.

We have a triangle whose side lengths measures are (2x+2) ft, (x+3) ft, and n ft.

If we take the first two sides are (2x+2) ft, (x+3) ft, and third is n ft.

By the triangle property, that sum of the two sides is always greater than the third side.

2x+2+x+3 > n

3x+5 > n .....(1)

Now take first two sides as n ft, (x+3) ft, and third side (2x+2) ft

n+x+3 > 2x+2

n > x-1 .....(2)

From the inequality (1) and (2), we get:

x – 1 < n < 3x + 5

Thus, the expression x – 1 < n < 3x + 5 represents the possible values of n, in feet whose side lengths are (2x+2) ft, (x+3) ft, and n ft.

7p-(3p+4)= -2(2p-1) + 10<br> Solve each equation.

Aliun [14]

Perform the indicated multiplication:

<span>7p-(3p+4)= -2(2p-1) + 10

becomes

7p - 3p - 4 = -4p + 2 + 10

Group like terms:

7p - 3p + 4p = 2 + 10 + 4

8p = 16 => p = 2 (answer)</span>

A company sells boxes of duck calls (d) for $35 and boxes of turkey calls (t) for $45. they make batches of duck calls that fill

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Option A is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the number of boxes of duck calls and t be the number of boxes of turkey calls.

We have been given that a company sells boxes of duck calls for $35 and boxes of turkey calls (t) for $45, so the revenue earned from selling d boxes of duck and t boxes of turkey call will be 35d and 45t respectively.

Further, the company plan to make $300. We can represent this information as:

$35d+45t=300...(1)$

We are also told that they make batches of duck calls that fill 6 boxes and batches of turkey calls that fill 8 boxes. the company only has 42 boxes. We can represent this information as:

$6d+8t=42...(2)$

$6d=42-8t...(2)$

Therefore, our desired system of equation will be:

$35d+45t=300...(1)$

$6d=42-8t...(2)$

goldenfox [79]

Y=.25x+176.10 Y is the monthly cost and B would be the cost of the insurance every month. X is the amount of miles driven since the .25 stays constant but the amount of miles you drive in a month is different every month, Hence, needs to be a variable that can be adjusted,
