First of all, it is a ratio. I know that for a fact, but not very sure about the candy part. What I think it means is that they are comparing two types of candy.

Answer:

x = ± 4

y = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 0.5x² - 10 ------------------------(I)

y = -x² + 14   ------------------------(II)

Substitute the y value in equation (II)

    0.5x² - 10  = -x² + 14           {Add x² to both sides}            

0.5x² + x² -10 = 14                  {combine like terms}

       1.5x² - 10 = 14                   {Add 10 to both sides}

               1.5x² = 14 + 10

                1.5x² = 24         {Divide both sides by 1.5}

               1.5x²/1.5 = 24/1.5

                       x² = 16

                      x = ±4

Substitute x = 4 in (I)

y = 0.5 * 4² - 10

 = 0.5*16 - 10

 = 8- 10

y = -2

Substitute x = -4 in (I)

y = 0.5 * (-4)² - 10

 = 0.5*16 - 10

 = 8- 10

y = -2

Find the product of the greatest common divisor and the least common multiple of 18 and 42.
Evgesh-ka [11]

The product of the greatest common divisor and the least common multiple of  two numbers is always the product of the two numbers. So, you have

\text{lcm}(18,42)\times\text{GCD}(18,42)=18\times 42=756

Louisa ran at an average speed of five miles per hour along an entire circular park path. Calvin ran along the same path in the
docker41 [41]

Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the miles in the circular park path, t_{L} the time Louisa takes to finish and t_{C} the time Calvin takes to finish both in hours.

Then x, the longitude is equal to the velocity times the time used to finish. So

x=5t_{L}

x=6t_{C}

And the difference between Louisa's time and Calvin' time is 30 minutes, half an hour. So:

t_{C}=t_{L}-0.5

Three equations, three unknowns, the system can be solved.

Equalizing the equation with x :

5t_{L}=6t_{C}

In this last equation replace t_{C}  with the other equation and solve:

5t_{L}=6(t_{L}-0.5)\\ 5t_{L}=6t_{L}-3\\ 3=6t_{L}-5t_{L}\\ 3=t_{L}\\ t_{L}=3

With Louisa's time find x:

x=5t_{L}\\ x=5(3)\\ x=15
