Answer:

9 full pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this we have to divide the total feets of wood that Jessie has, by the size of the pieces that Jessie needs:

\frac{8}{\frac{7}{8} }\\\frac{\frac{8}{1} }{\frac{7}{8} }\\\frac{8*8}{7*1}\\\frac{64}{7} =9.14

Since Jessie will be able to cut 9.14 pieces of wood, he will have only 9 full pieces, so the total amount of pieces that he would be able to cut will be 9.

What are the quadratic equations for x=-14​
raketka [301]

Answer:

x^{2} +14x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Given root is

x=-14,\ 0

Now we need to find the quadratic equation for given roots.

Solution:

The given roots are -14 and 0.

So, the sum of the roots.

\alpha +\beta = -14 + 0

\alpha +\beta = -14

Product of the given roots

\alpha\times \beta = -14\times 0

\alpha\times \beta = 0

Therefore, the required quadratic equation is.

x^{2} -(\alpha +\beta )x+\alpha\times \beta=0 -------------------(1)

Now we substitute (\alpha +\beta ) and (\alpha\times \beta) in equation 1.

x^{2} -(-14)x+0=0

x^{2} +14x=0

Therefore, the quadratic equation for the given root is. x^{2} +14x=0

Which describes the slope of this line?
kipiarov [429]

The line is going down (from left to right), so it has a negative slope

horizontal lines have zero slope

vertical lines have undefined slope

lines going up (from left to right) would have positive slope

This is going down so it is Choice B

Can you guys give me the steps for this plus the answer?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

First rearrange the terms.

-6x - 6x +3 = 111

Add like terms

-12x + 3 = 111

Subtract 3 from both sides

-12x = 108

Divide -12 on both sides

x = -9
