Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

If Alex and Joan's combined weight is 310, keep that in mind for each trip.

(1000-310)/50=answer

100-310= 690

690/50= 13.8

But you can't have a partial box, so it'll be only 13. You can't round up because then the total weight will be 10 over.

I’m confused can ya help me
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

C & D

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 3x - 3 = 0

a = co efficient of  x² = 1

b=  co efficient of x = 3

c = constant = -3

roots = (-b ± \sqrt{b-4ac})/2a

    = (-3±\sqrt{3^{2}-4*1*[-3]} )/2*1

    = (-3±\sqrt{9+12})/2

    = (-3±√21)/2

  x = \frac{-3+\sqrt{21}}{2}     ; x =\frac{-3-\sqrt{21}}{2}

What are the x-intercepts of y=x^2+2x-15
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

(-5,0) and (3,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about it.

What two numbers multiply to -15 and add up to 2?

The answers are 5 and -3.

So plug that into the factored form of a parabola.

y=(x+5)(x-3)

To find the x-intercepts, plug in 0 for y.

(x+5)(x-3)=0

Since we are multiplying, at least one of the terms has to equal 0.

x+5=0 \\ x-3=0 \\ \\ x=-5,3

So the x-intercepts are (-5,0) and (3,0).
