(a) 95 = (x+7)*(x-7)
(b) 95 = (x+7)*(x-7)
Expand the brackets:
95 = x² -7x + 7x -49 = x² - 49
Subtract x² from both sides:
95-x² = -49
Subtract 95 from both sides:
-x²=-49-95
-x²= -144
Divide both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative numbers:
-x²/-1=-144/-1
x²=144
Take the square root of 144:
x = ± squareroot of 144
x = 12 or -12
x = 12 because you cannot have a negative age so Trina is 12 years old.
Since we’ve been given a ratio, 3:8, we can convert that into a fraction and form an equation from it:
=
The reason the numerator on the second fraction is 27/3 is because the team scored 27 points, not 27 baskets.
Simplify (Also replace the ? with an unknown variable):
=
Cross multiply:
3*n = 9*8
Simplify:
3n = 72
Divide both sides by 3:
n = 24
The team had 33 three point tries, 9 successes, and 24 fails.

PEMDAS so you do 3*4 which equals 12, then you add 8=20 20/2=10
