Answer:

121 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

David is the first 4 in the ratio 4:3:4. We know that David gets 44 sweets. We also know that Paul gets 44 sweets because he is the other 4 in the ratio. To find out how many sweets 3 is equal to, you need to find the unit rate. To do this, you can divide 44 by 4 to know how much 1 equals. When you divide 44/4, you get 11. This means that 1 is 11. To find out what three is, you can multiply 11 by 3 to get 33. The question asks how many sweets are there altogether, so you must add 44+33+44. This equals 121.

Round 2,605 to the nearest hundred
Paha777 [63]
Look at the right of the number you want to round then if its greater than 5 round the number that you originally wanted to round. Round it up or down. In this number, 0 is less than 5 so 6 stays the same. all the numbers after 6 turn into zeroes. 

Your answer is: 2,600

CAN SOME ONE PLEASE ANSWER THIS RIGHT THANK YOU
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

2:A number is greater than 17.2

Step-by-step explanation:

the ">" in the inequality represents is greater

so the m> means m is greater than... and then the 17.2 means m is greater than 17.2. The way I learnt it was to imagine the ">" sign is like a crocodile, it wants the bigger number. So the ">" being towards the "m" shows that m is the bigger number.

For what value of k is there one solution to the given quadratic equation (k+1)x²+4kx+2=0.
andriy [413]

Answer:

If k = 1 or k = -\frac{1}{2}, there is only one solution to the given quadratic equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0

This polynomial has roots x_{1}, x_{2} such that ax^{2} + bx + c = (x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2}), given by the following formulas:

x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac

The signal of \bigtriangleup determines how many real roots an equation has:

\bigtriangleup > 0: Two real and different solutions

\bigtriangleup = 0: One real solution

\bigtriangleup < 0: No real solutions

In this problem, we have the following second order polynomial:

(k+1)x^{2} + 4kx + 2 = 0.

This means that a = k+1; b = 4k; c = 2

It has one solution if

\bigtriangleup = 0

b^{2} - 4ac = 0

16k^{2} -8(k+1) = 0

16k^{2} - 8k - 8 = 0

We can simplify by 8

2k^{2} - k - 1 = 0

The solution is:

k = 1 or k = -\frac{1}{2}

So, if k = 1 or k = -\frac{1}{2}, there is only one solution to the given quadratic equation.

What are the angles sizes
Rus_ich [418]
Answers:
(x+2) = 55 degrees

x = 53 degrees

the given is 72 degrees


Explanation:
A triangle always equals 180 degrees. It was given that one of the angle measures is 72 degrees. 180-72=108. Now I need to find the value of x. (x+2)+x=108. Solving this equation I get x=53. Substitute this back into the angle measures and u get the answers as stated above.
