The place values in 5.6 and 1.78 are the positions of the digits in the numbers

  • The largest place value common in 5.6 and 1.78 is the ones place
  • Nichole is correct

<h3>How to determine who is correct?</h3>

In a number, the non-zero digit at the left-most position is the greatest place value

This means that:

The greatest place value in 5.6 is 5 (i.e. ones place)

The greatest place value in 1.78 is 1 (i.e. ones place)

So, we can conclude that the largest place value common in 5.6 and 1.78 is the ones place

Hence, Nichole is correct

Solve for x:
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Often, the simplest way to solve "ax2 + bx + c = 0" for the value of x is to factor the quadratic, set each factor equal to zero, and then solve each factor. But sometimes the quadratic is too messy, or it doesn't factor at all, or you just don't feel like factoring. While factoring may not always be successful, the Quadratic Formula can always find the solution.

The Quadratic Formula uses the "a", "b", and "c" from "ax2 + bx + c", where "a", "b", and "c" are just numbers; they are the "numerical coefficients" of the quadratic equation they've given you to solve.

Mrs travis wants to have the clown deliver balloons to her secretary's office. Clowns R Fun charges $1.25 per balloon and $6 for
marysya [2.9K]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


6 balloons.


Explanation:


Let x represent the number of balloons purchased.


We will call the function for Clowns R Fun c(x):

c(x) = 1.25x+6


We will call the function for Singing Balloons s(x):

s(x) = 1.95x+2


We want the amount for Clowns R Fun, c(x) to be less:

c(x) < s(x)

1.25x+6 < 1.95x+2


Subtract 1.25x from each side:

1.25x+6-1.25x < 1.95x+2-1.25x

6 < 0.7x+2


Subtract 2 from each side:

6-2 < 0.7x+2-2

4 < 0.7x


Divide each side by 0.7:

4/0.7 < 0.7x/0.7

5.7 < x

x > 5.7
