<span> He could draw a diagram of a rectangle with dimensions x – 1 and x – 6 and then show the area is equivalent to the sum of x2, –x, –6x, and 6.</span>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Brent uses a rectangle that models the area = (x² - 7x + 6)

Now we will factorize this expression

x² - 7x + 6 = x² - 6x - x + 6

                = x(x - 6) - 1(x - 6)

                = (x - 1)(x - 6)

Therefore, (x -1) and (x - 6) will represent the sides of a rectangle so that multiplication of the sides will model the area of the rectangle.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The number of seashells he have in his collection all together is <u>140</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches.

Stanley has 49 seashells from Florida.

Now, to find the number of seashells of his collection altogether.

Let the number of seashells all together be x.

Percentage of seashells found on Florida beaches = 35%.

Number of seashells found on Florida beaches = 49.

Now, to get the number of seashells altogether we put an equation:

35\%\ of\ x=49.

⇒ \frac{35}{100} \times x=49

⇒ 0.35\times x=49

⇒ 0.35x=49

Dividing both sides by 0.35 we get:

⇒ x=140.

Therefore, the number of seashells he have in his collection all together is 140.

dangina [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i'm pretty sure that you will have to add it.

so, when we add two fractions such as 3/4 + 3/4, we make sure that the denominators (the bottom numbers) are the same and then we simply add the numerators (the  top numbers).

in this problem, the denominators are the same so we will simply add 3+3 which equals to 6/4. the denominator will remain the same.

               <em>answer:</em>

                      3/4 + 3/4    =   6/4

<u>i hope this is helpful. </u>

Arthur borrowed $2,100 from the bank. 3 years later, Arthur owes the bank $2,478. What was the percentage rate of simple interes
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Percentage Rate=6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total borrowed=$2,100

Time=3 years

Rate=?

Total amount owed after 3 years= total borrowed + simple interest

$2,478=$2,100 + x

X=$2,478 - $2,100

=$378

The simple interest=$378

Simple interest=P×R×T

Where,

P= principal=$2,100

R=Rate=?

T=Time=3 years

Simple interest=$378

Simple interest=P×R×T/100

$378=$2,100×R×3/100

$378=$6,300R/100

$378=$63R

R=$378/$63

R=6

Therefore,

Rate=6%
