Answer:

15/4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportion question

It says 1/2 crates of apple are used for every 3/4 crates of oranges

For 5/2 crates of apple, x crates of oranges will be needed.

To get x, we simply multiply 1/2 by x and equate it to 3/4 multiplied by 5/2

This means: 0.5x = 0.75 × 2.5

x = ( 0.75 × 2.5 ) ÷ 0.5 = 3.75

Hence for 5/2 crates for apple, she will need 15/4 crates of oranges.

What are the x-int of the parabola graphed
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercepts exist where y is equal to 0...which is ON the x-axis. Hence, the name "x-intercept". These are caled zeros, solutions, and roots. This parabola goes through the x-axis at x = 0 and x = 4. It is at both of these locations where the y-coordinate is 0.

11. x squared - 7x = 0 12. 3x squared - 4x = 20x + 27
Stella [2.4K]
11. x² - 7x = 0
      x(x) - x(7) = 0
      x(x - 7) = 0
      x = 0    or    x - 7 = 0
                           + 7 + 7 
                               x = 7

Solution Set: {0, 7}

12. 3x² - 4x = 20x + 27
           + 4x   + 4x
             3x² = 24x + 27
      3x² - 24x - 27 = 0
      x = -(-24) ± √((-24)² - 4(3)(-27))
                              2(3)
       x = 24 ± √(576 + 324)
                         6
       x = 24 ± √(900)
                     6
       x = 24 ± 30
                 6
       x = 4 ± 5
       x = 4 + 5    or    x = 4 - 5
       x = 9    or    x = -1

Solution Set: {9, -1}
