120/21= 5.71
Students wouldn't be splitting a Skittle, so everyone would get 5.
Choice A : 3.49/25 = 0.139 rounds to 14 cents per oz
choice B ; 4.79/40 = 0.119 rounds to 12 cents per oz
lowest price is choice B
Answer:
- C) (x − 3)2 = 25
- C) Factor out 4 from 4x2 + 40x.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Adding the square of half the x-coefficient to both sides of the equation will "complete the square." That square is 9, so the result on the right is 16+9 = 25. Only selection C matches.
___
2. To complete the square, you want to be able to put the quadratic into the form a(x -h)^2 = -k. For the purpose, it is most convenient to first factor "a" from the given quadratic. Then you can determine "-h" to be half the x-coefficient inside the parentheses.
Here, that looks like ...
4(x² +10x) = 80 . . . . . . . . . . step 1: factor out 4
4(x² +10x +25) = 180 . . . . . add 25 inside parentheses and the same number (4·25) on the right side of the equation
4(x +5)² = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . written as a square
