Well what two numbers multiply to get -8 and add to get -2?
Well, to get -8, we either have (-1,8),(-2,4),(-4,2),(-8,1)
8-1=7
-2+4=2
2-4=-2
1-8=-7
Thus it should be (-4,2),
This means we should get (X-4)(X+2)

on a recent hike through riverbend park antoinette traveled 2/3 mile in 1/3 hour . Which unit rate describes antoinettes speed i
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Her speed is of 2 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity:

The velocity is given by the following formula:

v = \frac{d}{t}

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance and t is the time.

2/3 mile in 1/3 hour .

This means that d = \frac{2}{3}, t = \frac{1}{3}

Which unit rate describes antoinettes speed in miles per hour?

This is v. So

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{1}{3}} = \frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{1} = 2

Her speed is of 2 miles per hour.

Could you help plz.​
I am Lyosha [343]

Cost of each bags of flour = $2.50

Cost of each bags of butter = $3.75

Solution:

Let f be the bags of flour and b be the pounds of butter.

Cost of 20 bags of flour 16 pound of butter = 110

⇒ 20f + 16b = 110 -------------------- (1)

Cost of 30 bags of flour 12 pound of butter = 120

⇒ 30f + 12b = 120  -------------------- (2)

Equation (1) and (2) are the system of equations.

(2) ⇒ 30f + 12b = 120

Subtract 30f from both sides.

⇒ 12b = 120 – 30f

Divide by 12 on both sides.

$\Rightarrow b =\frac{120-30f}{12}  -------------------- (3)

Substitute (3) in (1).

$20f+16\left(\frac{120-30f}{12}\right)=110

$20f+4\left(\frac{120-30f}{3}\right)=110

$20f+4(40-10f)=110

$20f+160-40f=110

Subtract 160 from both sides.

$-20f=-50

Divide by –20, we get

$f=\frac{5}{2}

f = 2.50

Substitute f = 2.5 in equation (3), we get

$\Rightarrow b =\frac{120-30(2.50)}{12}

$b=\frac{15}{4}

b = 3.75

Cost of each bags of flour = $2.50

Cost of each bags of butter = $3.75

Answer:

36.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the dotted line is a perpendicular bisector, we can say that it splits the side that is 30 units long into 2 sets of 15 units. Then, we can use the pythaogrean theorem to solve (Leg A is 33 and Leg B: 15). a^2+b^2=c^2

33^2+15^2=c^2

1089+225=c^2

1314=c^2

Square root of 1314 = square root of c^2

36.2 aapproximately c
