Answer:

5 kilograms of charcoal for $12.50

Step-by-step explanation:

first find price of 1kg:

  • 3 kilograms of charcoal for $7.95= 7.95/3= $2.65 <em>($2.65 for each kg)</em>

<em>so when you get 5 kgs for $2.65 each, it would be total $13.25 (5*$2.65)</em>

<em> and that is more than the price of other one</em>

  • 5 kilograms of charcoal for $12.50= 12.50/5= $2.5 <em>($2.5 for each kg)</em>

The values of k for the different quadratic equation solutions are as follows

a  the equation 2x² - x + 3k = 0 has two distinct real roots

  • k < 1/24

b. the equation 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0 has equal roots

  • k = 3/5

ci the equation -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0 has real roots

  • k > -3.25

d the equation 3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0 has no real solutions

  • k < ± 1.633

<h3>How to solve quadratic equations to get different answers</h3>

Quadratic equations of the form ax² + bx + c = 0 is solved using the formula

-b+\frac{\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}     OR     -b-\frac{\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

The equation b² - 4ac is called the discriminant and it is used as follows

To solve the equation and get two real roots: 2x² - x + 3k = 0

  • b² - 4ac > 0

substituting the values gives

(-1)² - 4 * 2 * 3k > 0

1 - 24k > 0

1 > 24k

divide through by coefficient of k

k < 1/24

To solve the equation and get equal roots: 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0

  • b² - 4ac = 0

substituting the values gives

(-2)² - 4 * 5 * (2k - 1) = 0

4 - 40k + 20 = 0

-40k = -24

divide through by coefficient of k

k = 3/5

To solve the equation and get real roots  -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0

  • b² - 4ac > 0

substituting the values gives  

(3)² - 4 * -1 * (k+1) > 0

9 + 4k + 4> 0

4k > -13

divide through by coefficient of k

k > -3.25

To solve the equation and get  no real solutions  3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0

  • b² - 4ac < 0

substituting the values gives  

(-3)² - 4 * 3k * 2 < 0

9 - 24k² > 0

9 > 24k²

divide through by coefficient of k²

k² < 24/9

k < ± 1.633

Tony made $396 for 18 hours of work at the same rate how many hours would he have to work to make $198
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

9 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first, you have to determine what he makes per hour to make this as easy as possible. You need to first do 396 divided by 18, which gives you 22. He makes 22$ an hour. Next, now that you know what he makes, you can do 198 divided by 22, and that'll show how long he has to work to make that amount of money.

Hope this helped. Please mark this brainliest if you think this helped. Let me know if you need anymore help and I am more than happy.
