Hi there!
We are given the equation w² + 7w + 12 = 0, and we are told to solve it. Well, we can first take all the factors of 12 -
1 12
2 6
3 4
Now, take the sum of each factor pair -
1, 12 = 13
2, 6 = 8
3, 4 = 7
Find which factor pair adds up to 7, and we can see that 3 and 4 add up to seven, while also having a product of 12. Therefore, since the whole equation has addition signs, we can factor the equation w² + 7w + 12 into (w + 3)(w + 4) = 0. Next, using the Zero Product Property, we can set each term to zero.
w + 3 = 0
w = -3
w + 4 = 0
w = -4
Therefore, the solution to the equation w² + 7w + 12 = 0 is w = -3, -4. Hope this helped and have a great day!
The correct answer is B. If Alina’s workout was 80 minutes, and Dane’s workout was 48 minutes, they spent the same amount of time on cardio exercise.
To figure this out, first find 15% of 80 and then 25% of 48.
To find 15% of 80, you can first find 10% of 80 which is 8(just move the decimal one place to the left). The remaining 5% will be half of 8 since 8 is 10%. Add both the numbers up and you will get 12. (8+4=12)
To find 25% of 48, you can divide 48 by 4. Since percent means 'out of 100', 25% is 25 of 100. 100 divided by 25 is equal to 4. So, 48 divided by 4 is equal to 12.
So, the final answer is B. They both equal to 12.
Hope it helps :)
That is the answer. you can't simplify it.
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3=10/15 (divide 15 by 3 to get 5, then multiply both numerator and denominator by 5 to set equivalent)
3/5=9/15
10/15 is greater than 9/15, so during the 1st week there were more boy campers
Hi there!
Amit's estimate would be a close estimate!
If you add the fractions together and put it in decimal form you get 4.96 which is very close to Amit's estimate of 5.
