Jean can pack 5 cartons in 15 minutes. Which expression can be used to show the number of cartons Jean can pack in x hours? Grou
nadezda [96]

Answer: 20x

Step-by-step explanation:

First we should note that 60 minutes = 1 hour. Therefore, 15 minutes = 15/60 = 1/4 hour

Since Jean can pack 5 cartons in 1/4 hours, the number of carton that he can pack in one hour will be:

= 5 ÷ 1/4

= 5 × 4

= 20 cartons.

Therefore, to get the number of cartons that Jean can pack in x hours, we will multiply 20 by x. This will be:

= 20 × x

= 20x

The formula
Tasya [4]

Answer

the answer is P=7.8

Step-by-step explanation:

P=14.7e           -0.21x

X=14.7e      (-0.63)

take the natrual log of both sides

1n(P)=1n(14.7e(-.63)

1n(P)=1n(14.7)-.63

(because ln(e^a) = a)

1n(P)=2.688 - .63

1n(P)=2.058

P=e       2.058

P=7.8

Solve the equation p^2 + 4p = 1 by completing the square.
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

p = -2 ±sqrt( 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

p^2 + 4p = 1

Take the coefficient of p

4

Divide by 2

4/2 =2

Square it

2^2 = 4

Add it to each side

p^2 + 4p+4 = 1+4

(p+2) ^2 = 5

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((p+2) ^2) =±sqrt( 5)

p+2 = ±sqrt( 5)

Subtract 2 from each side

p+2-2 = -2 ±sqrt( 5)

p = -2 ±sqrt( 5)
