Answer:

There should be 120 peanuts

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratio's to solve this problem

5 bags

---------------

75 peanuts


5 bags           8 bags

---------------  = ------------------

75 peanuts      x peanuts

Using cross products

5x = 75*8

5x = 600

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 600/5

x = 120

Which is a zero of the quadratic function f(x)=9x^2-54x-19?
Arturiano [62]
A zero, or a solution of the quadratic function is c) x = 6 1/3


Write -54x as a difference
9x^2 + 3x - 57x - 19

Factor 3x out
{ 9x^2 + 3x }  - 57x - 19
3x (3x + 1)

Factor -19 out
3x (3x + 1) -19 (3x + 1)

Group the equations
( 3x - 19 ) ( 3x + 1 )

Solve for the zeroes

(3x+1) = 0
     -1     -1
3x = -1
3x / 3 = x
-1 / 3 = -1/3
x = - 1/3

(3x - 19) = 0
      +19   +19
3x = 19
3x / 3 = x
19 / 3 = 6 1/3
x = 6   1/3

Please help thank you ahead of time

Okay so basically, i’m pretty sure you have to make them catch up with each other, if i’m correct), so if it’s 30 to each student plus 2500 then 2 students is 60 bucks, 3 students is 90 and so on so forth......then if 1 student - 60 then 2 is 120 and vice versa ya know. So keep adding on the amount due for each student plus the extra amount which doesn’t change and make them catch up with each other. Keep on adding student after student and adding the fee until they match up. Sorry it’s not the exact answer but i hope this explains it... if i’m right

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

(B)72 fluid ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert cups to fluid ounces, Sari wrote the equivalent ratios.

\dfrac{8 \text{ fluid ounces}}{1\text{ cup}} =\dfrac{\text{? fluid ounces}}{9\text{ cups}}

Let the question mark be represented by x.

We then have:

\dfrac{8 \text{ fluid ounces}}{1\text{ cup}} =\dfrac{\text{x fluid ounces}}{9\text{ cups}}\\$Cross multiply\\x \times 1 = 8 \times 9\\x=72$ fluid ounces

We conclude that there are 72 fluid ounces in 9 cups.

Neko [114]

Answer:there are 16 goats and 22 chickens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of goats in the field.

Let y represent the number if chicken in the field.

After a quick count, you determine there are 38 heads and 108 feet in the field. A goat has one head. A chicken also has one head. It means that

x + y = 38

A goat has four legs. A chicken has 2 legs. It means that

4x + 2y = 108 - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 38 - y into equation 1, it becomes

4(38 - y) + 2y = 108

152 - 4y + 2y = 108

- 4y + 2y = 108 - 152

- 2y = - 44

y = - 44/ - 2

y = 22

x = 38 - y = 38 - 22

x = 16
