Check the picture below.
if you go from the slant height, the path is shorter to the top, since the hypotenuse is the longest of all sides in a right-triangle.
that said, is shorter but is also steeper, so the lateral edge is longer but less steep and thus a bit simpler though longer, but we're only asked on which is shorter.
6x²+x-12
the first thing we need to do is find 2 numbers that add up to equal the middle term (1) but multiply together to get a product of -72 (-12*6)
two numbers that would fit this is 9 and -8
so now we placed 9x and -8x in place of the middle term
6x²+9x-8x-12
now we look for whats common between the first two numbers and divide them out
6x²+9x = 3x(2x+3)
now we do the same with the last two numbers
-8x-12 = -4(2x+3)
notice how the numbers in brackets are the same (2x+3)
we will keep (2x+3) and then combine the numbers on the outside
once we do that you should get an answer of
(3x-4)(2x+3)
hope this helped!
Answer:
3X/20 (option a) of the pastries submitted by Rashid and Mikhail were brushed with butter
Step-by-step explanation:
Rashid pastries (R)
Mikhail pastries (M)
Rashid and Mikhail submitted a total of x pastries
R+M=x (I)
Rashid made 2/3 as many pastries as Mikhail
(2/3)*R=M (II)
Using II in I
R+(2/3)*R=x
(5/3)*R = x
R=(3/5)*x (III)
Using III in I
(3/5)*x+M=x
M=x-(3/5)*x
M=(2/5)*x (IV)
Mikhail filo dough (MF)
Mikhail shortcrust dough (MS)
Rashid filo dough (RF)
Rashid shortcrust dough (RS)
Mikhail used filo dough for all of his pastries
MF=M
MS=0
Rashid used shortcrust dough for all of his pastries
RS=R
RF=0
Filo dough (FD)
FD=RF+MF=0+MF=MF=M (V)
5/8 of the filo dough pastries were brushed with olive oil
pastries brushed with olive oil (OI)
(5/8)*FD=OI
Using V
(5/8)*M=OI
Using IV
(5/8)*(2/5)*x=OI
(1/4)*x=OI (VI)
pastries brushed with butter (B)
Pastries made out of filo dough are brushed with either olive oil or butter (but not both)
FD=OI+B
B=FD-OI
Using V and VI
B= M - (1/4)*x
Using IV
B = (2/5)*x - (1/4)*x
B= (3/20)*x
3X/20 (option a) of the pastries submitted by Rashid and Mikhail were brushed with butter
Answer: 75%
Step-by-step explanation:
32 dollars times 75% = 24
32 - 24 = $8
