If p represents the pounds of poultry the caterer had originally, then serving 45 pounds from that amount would be <em /><em>subtracting it from the original amount</em>, leaving them with p-45 pounds of poultry. We're told that this new weight is more than, or <em>greater than</em>, 10 pounds. The > sign captures that fact nicely. Our inequality then becomes:

p-45\ \textgreater \ 10

Which means "p pounds of poultry, minus 45 pounds, is heavier than 10 pounds."

Edit: Solving that inequality by adding 45 to both sides, we find that

p \ \textgreater \ 55

Which means that the caterer started with more than 55 pounds of poultry.

Which expression is a factor of 9x^2-4x+1 ( ps ^2 is an exponent)
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The discriminant b2−4ac < 0, the equation has no real number solutions, it has complex solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

9x² - 4x + 1 = 0     ax² + bx + c = 0

The discriminant: b² - 4ac = (-4)² - 4*9*1 = 16 - 36 = -20

b2−4ac < 0, the equation has no real number solutions, it has complex solutions

Grade 7 Need help with proportions (PICTURE INCLUDED)
jeka57 [31]
What you are doing with proportions most the time is solving for a variable which in this example I will use an x. You have to do something called cross multiplying. now look at number 21. when you cross multiply you multiply the number of the top part of the fraction on the left side to the bottom part of the fraction on the right side. In that example 1 × 36 = 36. now write 36 = 16x since you have to cross multiply the other parts of the fraction. Then you would divide both sides of the equation by 16. I will make a mixed fraction for this example. 2 4/16 which simplified equals 2 1/4
