The correct question is
<span>A student ate 3/20 of all candies and another 1.2 lb. Another student ate 3/5 of the candies and the remaining 0.3 lb. Altogether, what weight of candies did they eat?</span>

let
x-------> total <span>weight of candies
we know that

x=(3/20)*x+1.2+(3/5)*x+0.3
</span>x=(3/20)*x+(3/5)*x+1.5----> multiply by 20----> 20x=3x+12x+30
20x=15x+30
20x-15x=30
5x=30
x=6 lb

the answer is
6 lb

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The answer is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

3n(3m-2n) + 6m^2= (6m-3n)(2n+m)

By expansion

9mn - 6n^2 + 6m^2 = 12mn + 6m^2 -6n^2 - 3mn

By collecting like terms

9mn - 12mn + 3mn - 6n^2 + 6n^2 + 6m^2 - 6 m^2 = 0

-3mn + 3mn=0

Therefore the simplification of the expansion gives us 0

(5x-25)(x+4)=0<br> What’s the answer
NemiM [27]

Answer:

x = - 4, x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x - 25)(x + 4) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

5x - 25 = 0 ⇒ 5x = 25 ⇒ x = 5

White raven [17]
<span>Here let the quadratic equation be ax^2 + bx + c We know that a=5 from the question. Since the roots are 6 and 2, the quadratic equation would take the form of a product like (a1x-b1)(a2x-b2). However, let's assume that a2=1 and b2=6, Since a=5, a1=5, then 5x-b1=5(x-2). Solving this shows that b1=10 So, the equation is (5x-10)(x-6)</span>
