Answer:
$15
Step-by-step explanation:
12/8 = 1.5 = 1.50 per cookie
1.50* 10 = 15
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
Factoring <span> b2-4b+4</span>
The first term is, <span> <span>b2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -4b </span> its coefficient is <span> -4 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> +4 </span>
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> 1 • 4 = 4</span>
Step-2 : Find two factors of 4 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is <span> -4 </span>.
<span><span> </span></span>
<span><span>-4 + -1 = -5</span><span> -2 + -2 = -4 That's it</span></span>
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -2 and -2
<span>b2 - 2b</span> - 2b - 4
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
b • (b-2)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
2 • (b-2)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(b-2) • (b-2)
Which is the desired factorization
Answer:
Usually pounds (lb) .About an an average of 20 to 25 pounds (lbs)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Marvin uses Customary units, and considering the Watermelon.
Pounds, He could estimate based on average of 20 to 25 pounds.
He could choose another customary units, but it wouldn't be practical and unusual to say a watermelon of 160 quarters, also it would leave all the listeners without parameters.
So, definitely pounds.
Answer:
0.078125.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric sequence with first term a1 = 20 and common ratio r = 10/20 = 5/10 = 0.5.
nth term = a1 r^(n -1) so here:
9th term = 20(0.5)^(9-1)
= 20(0.5)^8
= 0.078125.
