Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

 w = 8, -2



Discussion:

The expression is undefined when the denominator is zero. So when does

w^2 - 6w - 16 = 0?  Let's factor the expression. A little trial and error shows that 8 + (-2) = 6 (the coefficient of w) and 8 * (-2) = -16  (the constant value) so w^2 - 6w -1 6 = (w-8) (w- (-2))  and the expression equals zero when  w = 8 or w = -2


Thank you,

MrB

sara has two bags of nuts one with 60% peanuts and the other with 28% peanuts. to make a ten pound bag of 45% peanuts how much o
Drupady [299]

SOLUTION - GIVEN = Sara has two bag with 60% & 28% peanut.

                    prove = How much the peanut is used to make 10 pound of 45%

                                 peanut.

TO PROOF -  Assume that

                    let  x be the  value of the peanut  used by sara  from the bag

                  60% peanut bag.

                  let ( 10 - x)  be the value of peanut used by sara from 28% peanut

                  bag.

                as given the bag become  of  the 10 pound which contain

                 45% of peanunt.

                  thus we have

               0.60x + 0.28 ( 10 - x ) = 0.45 (10)        

                0.60x + 0.28 ( 10 -x ) =   4.5

               0.60x  +   2.8 -  0.28 x = 4.5

              0.60x - 0.28x = 4.5 - 2.8

            0.32x  = 1.7

             x =  5.3125   peanut is taken from the 60% bag.

            & 4.6875 peanut from the 28% bag.

WILL GIVE BRAINIEST <br> NEED HELP ASAP<br> DUE IN 10 MINS
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Scientist B

Step-by-step explanation:

1 kg = 2.2 lbs

1L = 2.11 pints

So let's convert Scientist B's data.

3.0lbs salt = 3.0/2.2 = 1.36kg

6 pints water = 6/2.11 = 2.84L water

Scientist A

1kg salt

3.0L water

We now figure out the concentration of salt in water.

Scientist A Scientist B

1kg/3.0L = .33kg/L 1.36kg/2.84L = .48kg/L

So scientist B had a more concentrated solution.
