Answer: 0.0007
Step-by-step explanation:
6/8654
Answer:
I would set this up as:
let: lesser number = x
greater number = 2x + 5
Restating the word problem:
lesser number + greater number = 38
x + 2x + 5 = 38
Solving: 3x + 5 = 38
- 5 -5
---------------
3x = 33
--- ---
3 3
x = 11
Substitution for the greater number:
2(11) + 5
22 + 5
27
-24a²- 6a +9 = - 3(8a² +6a - 9)
8a² +6a - 9 =0
x=(-b +/-√(b² - 4ac))/2a
x = (-6 +/-√(36+4*8*9) /(2*8) = (-6 +/-√(324) /16 = (-6 +/-18)/16
x1 = (-6 +18)/16 = 0.75
x2 = (-6 -18)/16 = - 1.5
-24a²- 6a +9 = - 3(8a² +6a - 9) = -3(a - 0.75)(a + 1.5)
Answer: 6x + 2y
Step-by-step explanation: 4y-2y are both alike terms, so you subtract the two, and then add 6x to it
