The answer is 22.222222%.
The answer is either x = -1 or x = 4.
Answer:
The expression $32/x represents the price per pound.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
$32 for X pounds of beef ribs.
Now, the symbol which represents the per is this → / .
So, $
shows the expression for the price per pound.
Therefore, the expression $32/x represents the price per pound.
Let us take 'a' in the place of 'y' so the equation becomes
(y+x) (ax+b)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u>
(a + x) (ax + b)
<u>Step 2: Proof</u>
Checking polynomial identity.
(ax+b )(x+a) = FOIL
(ax+b)(x+a)
ax^2+a^2x is the First Term in the FOIL
ax^2 + a^2x + bx + ab
(ax+b)(x+a)+bx+ab is the Second Term in the FOIL
Add both expressions together from First and Second Term
= ax^2 + a^2x + bx + ab
<u>Step 3: Proof
</u>
(ax+b)(x+a) = ax^2 + a^2x + bx + ab
Identity is Found
.
Trying with numbers now
(ax+b)(x+a) = ax^2 + a^2x + bx + ab
((2*5)+8)(5+2) =(2*5^2)+(2^2*5)+(8*5)+(2*8)
((10)+8)(7) =(2*25)+(4*5)+(40)+(16)
(18)(7) =(50)+(20)+(56)
126 =126
I say step 4 is incorrect.
