Answer:

Person A made 108 cupcakes and person B made 60 cupcakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Person A makes 1 cupcake in 5 minutes.

Say in x minutes A makes : \frac{x}{5} cupcakes

Person B makes 1 cupcake in 9 minutes.

Say in x minutes B makes : \frac{x}{9} cupcakes

Total cupcakes prepared by A and B in x minutes = 168

\frac{x}{5}+\frac{x}{9}=168

\frac{14x}{45}=168

x=\frac{168\times 45}{14}=540

So, cupcakes made by A = \frac{540}{5}=108

Cupcakes made by B = \frac{540}{9}=60

Person A made 108 cupcakes and person B made 60 cupcakes.

Find the X intercept and the Y intercept from the following linear equation X+ 4y = -56
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

x-intercept = -56

y-intercept = - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 4y = -56

x- intercept :

y = 0

x + 4*0 = - 56

x-intercept = -56

y-intercept:

x=0

0 + 4y = - 56

4y = -56

y = - 14

y-intercept = - 14

I don’t understand how to factor trinomials
gayaneshka [121]
When the X term is one, and doesn't have a leading coefficient, then you can factor it using the box and diamond method. look up videos on Khan Academy of the box and diamond method for solving trinomials. For number 9, you have a difference of squares. That means you can factor to just 2 terms. (x+4)(x-4) this works because 16 has an easy square root, and the sign in between is a negative(difference)
