Boys : Girls : Total
  3     :   1         4

---------------------------------------------------
Difference in shares :
---------------------------------------------------
Difference in shares = 3 - 1 = 2

---------------------------------------------------
Find 1 share :
---------------------------------------------------
2 shares = 28
1 share = 28 ÷ 2 = 14

---------------------------------------------------
Find 4 shares (Total) :
---------------------------------------------------
1 share  = 14
4 shares = 14 x 4 = 56

I need help with a math question
Julli [10]

Answer:

Question 1: 4.5(10^−7)(2(10^4))

=

9/1000

(Decimal: 0.009)

Question 2:

mass of neutron/mass of electron = 2*10-24/(9*10-28)

2x10^(-24)/9x10^(-28)

d is closest.

Question 3:

4(10^3)(12(10^5))

=4000*1200000

=4*1000*12*100000

=(4*12)*(1000*100000)

=48*100000000

=4800000000

And these things : ^ mean raising the number to become exponets and when I put the number into a bold text thats the answer!

<em>Hope</em><em> </em><em>this</em><em> </em><em>helps</em><em>!</em><em> </em><em>if</em><em> </em><em>so</em><em> </em><em>pls</em><em> </em><em>mark</em><em> </em><em>brainliest</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>heart</em><em>/</em><em>rate</em><em>!</em>

True or false? The quadratic equation 10p2 - 5p = -8 has one solution.
pav-90 [236]

Answer: False

=============================================

Explanation:

I'll use x in place of p.

The original equation 10x^2-5x = -8 becomes 10x^2-5x+8 = 0 after moving everything to one side.

Compare this to ax^2+bx+c = 0

We have

  • a = 10
  • b = -5
  • c = 8

Plug those three values into the discriminant formula below

d = b^2 - 4ac

d = (-5)^2 - 4(10)(8)

d = 25 - 40*8

d = 25 - 320

d = -295

The discriminant is negative, which means we have no real solutions. If your teacher has covered complex or imaginary numbers, then you would say that the quadratic has 2 complex roots. If your teacher hasn't covered this topic yet, then you'd simply say "no real solutions".

Either way, this quadratic doesn't have exactly one solution. That only occurs when d = 0. Therefore, the original statement is false.
