Answer:
1/49
Step-by-step explanation:
You wrote the problem correctly. You just needed to multiply instead of add.
1/7*1/7=1/49
So the answer is 1/49.
Given that,
A car uses a litre of petrol to travel 4 km.
To find,
How many litres will it use to travel 32 kilometres.
Solution,
We have,
1 litre = 4 km
or
1 km = (1/4) litre
Let it will use x litres to travel 32 km.
32 km = (32/4) litres
= 8 litres
Hence, 8 litres it will use to travel 32 km.
Answer:
x = -8 and x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
given
f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)
recall that at any point on the x-axis, y = 0 [i.e f(x) = 0]
hence to find where the graph crosses the x-axis, we simply substitue f(x) = 0 into the equation and solve for x
f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)
0 = (x+8) (x - 4)
Hence
either,
(x+8) = 0 ----> x = -8 (first crossing point)
or
(x-4) = 0 ------> x = 4 (second crossing point)
Hence the graph crosses the x-axis at x = -8 and x = 4
Answer:
Orange = 12
Grape = 15
Cola = 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Turning this into equations you can give each soda a variable
Cola = C | Grape = G | Orange = R
Then you get:
8 + G = C
R + 3 = G
C + G + R = 50
We want to get a variable all by itself in an equation so first I'm going to put the second equation (R + 3 = G) in the first (8 + G = C) by replacing the G to get
8 + (R + 3) = C Combine the variables 11 + R = C and put that new equation into the last equation
(11 + R) + G + R = 50
Now plug our original second equation (R + 3 = G) into our third to get
(11 + R) + (R + 3) + R = 50
Combine and get
14 + 3R = 50 Subtract over the 14
3R = 36 Divide by 3
Orange Sodas = 12
Our new 3rd Equation is now: C + G + 12 = 50, subtract over 12 to get
C + G = 38
Plug either equation 1 or 2 into that one, I'll do 1
(8 + G) + G = 38
8 + 2G = 38
2G = 30
Grape Sodas = 15
Now our 3rd equation is C + 15 = 38, subtract over 15
Cola Sodas = 23
Orange = 12
Grape = 15
Cola = 23
12 + 15 + 23 = 50
Your answer is... they ate 2/4 or 1/2 of the bag of popcorn.
