Answer:
StartFraction 1.55 over 1 EndFraction = StartFraction 3.5 over x EndFraction
Step-by-step explanation:
1 = 1.55
x = 3.5
1.55/1 =3.5/x
1.55/1 = 3.5/x correctly shows the equivalent ratios
A product is the answer that you get when you multiply numbers together. So for this problem, you have 2 groups to multiply together. Since I cannot show a square or cubed x, I will put an x2 for x squared and an x3 for x cubed. You have to multiply each number in the first parentheses by each number in the second parentheses. Then combine any like sets.
(8x-3)(x2-4x+8)
8x3-32x2+64x-6x+12x-24
8x3-32x2+70x-24
So the answer is 8x cubed minus 32x squared plus 70x minus 24. Whew! That's a long one. Hope I didn't miss anything.
When will he have less than 40 wheels left? Well you can make the equation...
85-4x=40
And then solve for x.
85-4x=40
-4x=-45
x=11 1/4 rounded up to 12
answer: He will have less than 40 wheels left after he has built 12 cars.
