Answer:
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
x: number of hammers
y: number of wrenches
We write the system of inequations:
10x + 6y <= 120
x + y> = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>
Forming Equations from Word Problems</h2>
To form equations from word problems, we can derive mathematical operations as well as variables from the given information.
In this case, each time Walker reads a certain number of pages, we subtract that from the total number of pages left to know how many pages is left to read.
<h2>Solving the Question</h2>
<em>Let r represent the pages left to read.</em>
<em />
792 pages in total
Walker reads 15 pages a day during the week and 25 pages a day during the weekend.
- There are 5 weekdays, and he reads 15 pages each of those days. ⇒ <em>r</em> = 792 - 5×15
- There are 2 weekend days, and he reads 25 pages each of those days.
⇒ <em>r</em> = 792 - (5×15 + 2×25)
5 weeks have passed
- Multiply the terms representing the number of pages he reads a week by 5, for 5 weeks.
⇒ <em>r</em> = 792 - (5×15 + 2×25)×5
<h2>Answer</h2>
<em>r</em> = 792 - (5×15 + 2×25)×5
Answer:
the "negative solution" is -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the number by n.
Then n^2 - 24 = 5n
We rewrite this in standard quadratic form:
n^2 - 5n - 24 = 0
This factors as follows; (n + 3)(n - 8) = 0
The roots are n = -3 and n = 8. Thus, the "negative solution" is -3
Answer:
53 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all its sides.
Let the length of the unknown side be x mm.
123= 25 +45 +x
x= 123 -25 -45
x= 53
Thus, the unknown side is 53 mm.
I think it’d be 2 but I’m not really sure
