Answer:
2x - 3
x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The root of a problem is the x value that makes the equation equal to zero.
If the factored form of the equation is (2x-3)(x-9) that means if either 2x - 3 or x - 9 is equal to zero, the entire equation will equal zero, because zero times any number is equal to zero.
Therefore you must solve for (2x-3)=0 and (x-9)=0
Okay. so we need 15 2/5 pound bags. We'll calculate how many pounds that actually comes to. Our problem is 15x2/5. Using cross simplification, our problem becomes 3x2. 3x2=6. We need 6 pounds. That means that we must have 6 1-pound bags to fit with no leftovers.
Answer:
10·b = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system of equation is presented as follows;
5·a + 5·b = 25...(1)
-5·a + 5·b = 35...(2)
Given that the coefficient of a in equation (1) is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the coefficient of 'a' in equation (2), to eliminate the variable 'a' when using the elimination method, we add both equations as follows;
5·a + 5·b + (-5·a + 5·b) = 25 + 35 = 60
5·a - 5·a + 5·b + 5·b = 60
5·a - 5·a = 0
5·b + 5·b = 10·b
∴ 5·a - 5·a + 5·b + 5·b = 60 = 0 + 10·b = 10·b
∴ 10·b = 60
Answer:
1 and 5 out of 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Katie:9/12
Tori:8/12
9+8 =17/12 = 1 and 5/12 and this is already in the simplest form
