We know that Center 1 collects 715 pints per day and Center 2 collects 1035 pints per day.
They are asking for the estimated combined amount of blood from both centers in 3 days.
Estimate 715 as 700, and 1035 as 1000
This is written as
3(700+1000)= estimated total amount
To evaluate, simplify.
3(1700)= 5100 pints in 3 days from both centers
y= 2x
y= x^2 - 15
Answer:
Since both equations are equal to each other given that they are both equal to y, you can say that . . .
2x = x^2 - 15
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x-5) (x+3) = 0
Zero Product Property
x = 5 ; x = -3
Solve for y:
y = 2(5) ; y = 2(3)
y = 10 ; y = 6

Let the original amount of the paycheck be x
Equation
Paycheck - cost of mower - cost of chainsaw - 180 = 270
x - [(3/8)x + (2/5)x + 180] = 270
Solve
Change 3/8 and 2/5 to a common denominator and add.
3*5/8*5 + 2*8/5*8 = 15/40 + 16/30 = 31/40
x - [(31/40)x + 180] = 270 Remove the outer brackets
x - (31/40)x - 180 = 270 Evaluate the "x"s
40/40x - 31/40x - 180 = 270
9x/40 - 180 = 270 Add 180 to both sides
9x/40 = 180 + 270
9x/40 = 450 Multiply by 40
9x = 18000 Divide by 9
x = 18000/9
x = 2000
