Peter= x
Phil=3x
Implies that 4x=48 which means x=12
Implies that Phil has 36 rocks
36-12=
24 more rocks

Let x = the number of marbles for Phil
Then 3x = the number of marbles for Peter
Together they have 3x+x=48 or 4x=48 and x=12
So Phil has x = 12 marbles and Peter has 3x, let x = 12, 3(12) = 36 marbles.
Peter has 24 more marbles than Phil.

How do you round 38,288 to the nearest 100
lys-0071 [83]

Consider the number 38,288

Now, we have to round this number to the nearest hundreds place.

The place value to the extreme right of the number is ones, then tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands and so on.

So, the digit at hundreds place = 2

Consider the digit to the right of the hundred place which is '8', which is greater than 5.

Therefore, we will add '1' to the digit at hundreds place.

Therefore, the number 38,288 rounded to nearest hundreds is 38,300.

What is the greatest common factor (gcf) of the numerator and denominator in the rational expression below? 7x+14/2x^2+x-6
Mashutka [201]
The answer is C. The numerator 7x+14 can be factored as 7(x+2). The denominator 2x^2+2x-6 can be factored as (x+2)(2x-3). The greatest common divisor of 7(x+2) and (x+2)(2x-3) is obviously x+2, which is contained in both of the two expressions.
