30 Jagged rocks are the same 3 shiny rocks using the exchange rates provided(i.e. option D)

What is an exchange rate?

Exchange rate means the rate at which one item exchanges hands with another, for instance, in this case, 6 jagged rocks are equivalent to 2 smooth pebbles.

6 jagged rocks=2 smooth pebbles

divide both sides by 2

6/2 jagged rocks=2/2 smooth pebbles

3 jagged rocks=1 smooth pebble

We can rewrite as below:

1 jagged rock=1/3 smooth pebble

30jagged rocks=1/3*30 smooth pebbles

30 jagged rocks=10 smooth pebbles

Now we need to convert 10 smooth pebbles to shiny rock equivalence

3 smooth pebbles=1 shiny rock

1 smooth pebble=1/3 shiny rock

10 smooth pebbles=1/3*10 shiny rocks

10 smooth pebbles=3 shiny rocks( even though it is 3.33, but the final answer should be rounded to a whole number)

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Split the second term in 4m^2 + 16m + 15 into two terms

4m^2 + 10m + 6m + 15

Factor out the common terms in the first two terms, then in the last two terms

2m(2m + 5) + 3(2m + 5)

Factor out the common term 2m + 5

(2m + 5)(2m + 3)

Consider the following 8 numbers, where one labelled
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

x = 73

x = -35

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the 8 numbers:

34, 31, 15, x, 17, 4, 20, 25

Here are the 8 numbers in ascending order with x as the greatest number:

4, 15, 17, 20, 25, 31, 34, x

x - 4 = 69

x = 73

Here are the 8 numbers in ascending order with x as the smallest number:

x, 4, 15, 17, 20, 25, 31, 34

34 - x = 69

-x = 69 - 34

-x = -35

x = -35

Answer:

x = 73

x = -35
