Let's say you have John, Mary, and Ben. Let's say they have ONE chewy worm left, and they want to split it, and the worm has 5 segments, Green, Yellow, Red, Blue, and Purple.

Now, it can go like this:
CATEGORY 1: UNEVENLY
Way 1:
John gets the Purple and Blue
Mary gets the Red
Ben gets the Yellow and Green

Way 2:
John gets the Purple
Mary gets the Blue, Red, and Yellow
Ben gets the Green

Catagory 2: Evenly
Way 1:
You can cut the 5 segments each into 3 even pieces, this way there are 15 total. Then divide up the 15 by giving 5 each to John, Mary, and Ben.


~Hope this helps!

When is a long-term purchase on a credit card better than taking out a loan?
bixtya [17]

While a credit card is usually better for short-term debt, a personal loan is often ideal for people who need more time to repay. Then again, which option is best for you may boil down to how much interest you'll pay, too.

What method(s) would you choose to solve the equation: x2 + 2x - 6 = 0
Nataly_w [17]
Complete the square since can't factor
2/2=1
add 1 to both sides
x²+2x+1-6=1
factor perfect square
(x+1)²-6=1
add 6 to both sides
(x+1)²=7
sqrt both sides
x+1=+/-√7
minus 1 both sides
x=-1+/-√7


so x=-1+√7 or x=-1-√7
