Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Do 2^3 first. It is isolated on one side of a set of the + sign.
{8 + [4*(10 - 6)]} / 3 Next do the innermost
{8 + [4*4]} / 3 Do what's in the square brackets.
{8 + 16} / 3
24/3 Divide by 3
The answer is 8
8 <<<< answer.
Answer:
k can either be
12
or
−
12
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the equation
0=x2+4x+4
. We can solve this by factoring as a perfect square trinomial, so
0=(x+2)2→x=−2 and−2
. Hence, there will be two identical solutions.
The discriminant of the quadratic equation (b2−4ac) can be used to determine the number and the type of solutions. Since a quadratic equations roots are in fact its x intercepts, and a perfect square trinomial will have
2 equal, or 1
distinct solution, the vertex lies on the x axis. We can set the discriminant to 0 and solve:
k2−(4×1×36)=0
k2−144=0
(k+12)(k−12)=0
k=±12
You are correct, C) 4x = 12.
So, if 4 people are eating 12 pieces of pizza, simply divide 12 by 4 and there's your answer!
12 / 4 = 3 Each person gets 3 slices of pizza.
