Jamie has 8/10 of a candy bar, and wants to split it into an unknown number of 1/3 pieces. Our objective is to find the number of pieces.

Let the number of pieces be x.

To know the portion of the candy bar each piece is, we divide the total portion of the candy bar by the number of pieces.

So (8/10)/x = 1/3

Multiply each side by x

8/10 = 1/3x

Divide each side by 1/3 so we can have the variable x on a side, and its value on another.

(8/10)/(1/3) = (1/3x)/(1/3)

(8/10) / (1/3) = x

Dividing 2 fractions is equal to multiplying the first fraction by the inverse of the second:

(8/10) / (1/3) = x

(8/10) * 3 = x

24/10 = x

x = 2.4


Since this not a whole number, Jamie can make 2 full 1/3 pieces, and a piece of 1/10.

Or, you can easily say that Jamie can make 2.4 pieces of 1/3.

The standard form of a quadratic equation is ,

ax² + bx + c = 0.

And the formula to find the discriminant is b² - 4ac.

Here the first step is to change the given equation into standard form. So, add 1 to each sides of the equation. Therefore,

2x² – 9x + 2+1 = –1 + 1

2x² – 9x + 3 = 0

Next step is to compare the given equation with this equation to get the value of a, b and c.

After comparing the equations we will get a = 2, b = -9 and c = 3.

So, discriminant = b²- 4ac

=( -9)²-4 (2)(3)

= 81 - 24

= 57

So, discriminant of the given equation is 57.

57 is greater than 0 and square root of 57 will result real number.

So, the correct choice is C: The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots.

An account earns simple interest $600 at 5% for 2 years find the interest earned
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

so your answer would be 60$

Step-by-step explanation:

I = P * r * t

Here, P = $600

r = 0.05 (decimal value for 5%)

t = 2 years

Part a)

The interest earned will be:

I = P * r * t

I = 600 * 0.05 * 2

I = $60  

Part b)  

The balance in the account will be $600 plus the interest earned or:

$600 + 60 = $660

A refrigerator costs $580 a year to run. A family purchases a new one for $1200 that will save them 22% annually in energy costs
NeTakaya

Answer:

It will take nine years and four months for the refrigerator to pay for itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

The new refrigerator which costs $1200, saves the family 22% annually in energy cost.

Since the old refrigerator costs $580 to run, we want to determine how many years it will take for 22% of $580 per year to make $1200.

22% of $580

= 580 × 0.22

= 127.6

That is, it saved then $127.6 per year.

Now,

$1200/127.6

≈ 9.4

Which means, it will take 9 years and 4 months for the refrigerator to pay for itself.

Sorry again but i'm having trouble on this one
Lisa [10]

Answer:

m∠PNO = 60°

m∠O = 33°

Step-by-step explanation:

∡NPO is 87° because it's a vertical angle with the 87° angle

3) ∡PNO is supplementary to the 120° angle (they must add to 180°)

4) m∠O = 180 - (60 + 87) = 33
