Difference means subtraction ...so the difference of a number q and 8 is ....q - 8 (or i think it can be 8 - q also..).... Hope it helps!!!

8-q, considering the word "difference" means subtraction, so you are subtracting 8 from q.

A school principal ordered 1,000 pencils. He gave an equal number to each of 7 teachers until he had given out as many as possib

Semenov [28]

1000/7 = <span>142.857142857

Because this is not an even number we take "142", then times it by 7 teachers.

142*7= 994

1000 - 994 = 6 Pencils left</span>

Write a quadratic equation with the given roots. Write the equation in the form of ax^2+bx+c=0 where a b and c are integers

Bas_tet [7]

You haven't provided the required roots, but I can tell you how to do this kind of exercises in general.

If the $x^2$ coefficient is 1, i.e. the equation is written like $x^2+bx+c=0$ , then you can say the following about the coefficients b and c:

$b$ is the opposite of the sum of the roots
$c$ is the multiplication of the roots.

So, for example, if we want an equation whose roots are 4 and -2, we have:

$4+(-2) = 4-2 = 2 \implies b = -2$
$4 \cdot (-2) = -8 \implies c = -8$

So, the equation is $x^2-2x-8=0$

If your roots are rational, you can work like this: suppose you want an equation with roots 3/4 and 1/2. You have:

$\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{2}{4} = \dfrac{5}{4} \implies b = -\dfrac{5}{4}$
$\dfrac{3}{4} \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{3}{8} \implies c = \dfrac{3}{8}$

And so the equation is

$x^2 - \dfrac{5}{4} + \dfrac{3}{8} = 0$

In order to have integer coefficients, you can multiply both sides of the equation by 8:

$8x^2 - 10 + 3 = 0$

What is the constant of vanation,<br>of the line y = for through (3.18) and (5,30)?

Naily [24]

the constant of variation or namely its slope will be

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{18})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{30}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{30-18}{5-3}\implies \cfrac{12}{2}\implies 6$
