It has become somewhat fashionable to have students derive the Quadratic Formula themselves; this is done by completing the square for the generic quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0. While I can understand the impulse (showing students how the Formula was invented, and thereby providing a concrete example of the usefulness of abstract symbolic manipulation), the computations involved are often a bit beyond the average student at this point.
The answer is 3x-3. You have to distribute the 3 to both of the variables in the equations. The 1 in the parentheses is a negative and multiplying the 3 will result in a negative 3.
Answer: 12 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Marie walk 680 miles to the south pole and that the trip took 58 days and they travel the same distance each day.
The number of miles that they travel each day to the nearest whole number will be gotten by dividing 680 miles by 58. This will be:
= 680 miles / 58
= 11.72
= 12 miles to nearest whole number.
Answer:
1.25 of a sandwich
Step-by-step explanation:
5/4=1.25
I'm not sure if you have to round it or not, but I think this would be exact!
Hope this helps!
Is there a picture to this?
