Attention:THIS IS PART B <em>ONLY!</em>
First,find the unit rate.
35/2 and <em>x</em>/1
35 divided by 2 = 17.5 so the unit rate for J.K. is 17.5 pages per hour.
now,R.L.
45/3 and <em>x</em>/1
45 divided by 3 = 15 so the unit rate for R.L. is 15 pages per hour
now we need to divide 355 by 17.5 and divide it by 15.Whichever quotient is smaller,finishes the book first
355 divided by 17.5 = about 20 hrs----J.K.
355 divided by 15 = about 24 hrs-----R.L.
So,who read faster?
Answer:
56x6+3x
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+7x(8x5)
3x+56x6
If you divide by 8, you can put the equation into intercept form. That form is ...
... x/a + y/b = 1
where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the x- and y-intercepts, respectively.
Here, your equation would be
... x/(-2) + y/(-4) = 0
The graph with those intercepts is not shown with your problem statement here. See the attachment for the graph.
Any time you have a fraction within an equation, multiply the entire equation by the denominator to clear the fraction. Since the lead term is negative, we can multiply that away as well
(-14) (0=-1/14x²+4x+5) [now distribute]
0=x²-56x+70 [try to factor into binomials first]
Since 70 only has prime factors of 2·5·7, there is no combination which equals (-56). Use the quadratic formula, or complete the square. I'll use quadratic:
x=<u>-b+/-√(b²-4ac)</u>
2a
a=1, b=(-56), c=70
x= <u>-(-56)+/- √((-56)²-4(1)(70)</u>
2(1)
x= <u>56+/- √(3136-280)
</u> 2
<u />x=<u>56+/-√(2856)</u>
2
x=<u>56+/-√(2³·3·119)</u>
2
x=<u>56+/-2√(714)</u>
2
x=28+√714; x=28-√714
