Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

Pru, Piper, and Phoebe share spices in the ratio 5:3:4

5+3+4=12

So Pru has 5/12 share of spices, Piper has 3/12 share of spices, and Phoebe has 4/12 share of spices.

If Pru has 24 more spices than Piper, (5/12 - 3/12)=2/12 share of spices =24

Total spices = 24x12/2 = 144

Phoebe has 4/12x144 = 48 spices

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Pru, Piper, Phoebe ratio 5:3:4vadded = 12

What this means is Pru has 5/12 of the total amount, Piper has 3/12 of the total amount, and Phoebe has 4/12 of the total amount of spices.


pru = piper + 24

5/12x = 3/12x + 24

5/12x - 3/12x = 24

2/12x = 24

x = 24 / (1/6)

x = 24 * 6

x = 144 spices in total


Pru has : 5/12(144) = 720/12 = 60 spices

Piper has : 3/12(144) = 432/12 = 36 spices

Phoebe has : 4/12(144) = 576/12 = 48 spices


I hope this can help.

Which of the following quartic functions has x=-1 and x=-2 as its only two real zeros
Brums [2.3K]
Quartic is 4th degree
the factors of an equation with roots r1,r2 is
(x-r1)(x-r2)
4th degree
it could be
(x-r1)¹(x-r2)³ or
(x-r1)²(x-r2)² or
(x-r1)³(x-r2)¹


roots or zeroes at x=-1 and x=-2
(x-(-1)) and (x-(-2))
(x+1) and (x+2)

the function could be factored into
(x+1)¹(x+2)³ or
(x+1)²(x+2)² or
(x+1)³(x+2)¹

expanded would be
x⁴+7x³+18x²+20x+9 or
x⁴+6x³+13x²+12x+4 or
x⁴+5x³+9x²+7x+2

the translation has the following rule
(x,y)--------> (x+5, y-2)
so
(-5,0)-----> (-5+5,0-2)-----> (0,-2)

the answer is

6)2.1 + 18:9<br> What is the answer and the explanation
Lapatulllka [165]
2.1+18.9

The answer is going to be 21 because 9+1=10, you then carry the 1 for 8 so it’s going to be 9+2 which equals to 11 now you carry the 1 to the 1 so it’ll be 2. Therefore it’s 21.0 or just cancel out the 0 and just leave it as 21.
