Hey!

Let's see here. Now, to solve this problem we simply have to multiply the number of packages bought by the cost for each. This will give us the answer.

Created Equation :
3 • 1.25 = ?

Solution {Created Equation Solved} :
3.75

So, this means that if Tom bought 3 packages of Skittles for $1.25 each, then he spent a total of $3.75.

Hope this helps!

Hello there! An example problem for this could be:
Emile is looking for a cell-phone plan. His two options are one that costs $40 up front, and costs $0.01 per text, represented by x. The second one is 15 dollars up front and costs $0.06 for each text message. Emile figures that for the first package he has to send 500 texts or more to make it less than the second one.

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 15 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shap

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

0.13 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$\frac{dV}{dt}=15ft^3/min$

We have to find the increasing rate of change of height of pile when the pile is 12 ft high.

Let d be the diameter of pile

Height of pile=h

d=h

Radius of pile,r= $\frac{d}{2}=\frac{h}{2}$

Volume of pile= $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^3$

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{4}\pi h^2\frac{dh}{dt}$

h=12 ft

Substitute the values

$15=\frac{1}{4}\pi(12)^2\frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{15\times 4}{\pi(12)^2}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=0.13ft/min$

what is the quotient 5-x/x^2 3x-4 divided by x^2-2x-15/x^2 5x 4 in simplifed form state any restrictions on the varible

zheka24 [161]

The quotient when $\frac{5-x}{x^2+3x-4} /\frac{x^2-2x - 15}{x^2+5x+4}$ in simplified form is $\frac{-(x+1)}{(x-1)(x+3)}$

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Given that equation:

$\frac{5-x}{x^2+3x-4} /\frac{x^2-2x - 15}{x^2+5x+4}$

$=\frac{5-x}{(x+4)(x-1)} /\frac{(x-5)(x+3)}{(x+4)(x+1)} \\\\=\frac{5-x}{(x+4)(x-1)} * \frac{(x+4)(x+1)}{(x-5)(x+3)}\\\\\frac{-(x-5)}{(x+4)(x-1)} * \frac{(x+4)(x+1)}{(x-5)(x+3)}\\\\=\frac{-(x+1)}{(x-1)(x+3)}$
