Each friend will get 1.35 pounds of pecans.

To find this, simply divide 16.2 by 12 to find the weight of pecans everyone gets. Thus making 1.35 pounds of pecans the answer.

I hope this helps!

How do you do this? Someone give me the answer

It would last 13.5 weeks because you would make a proportion:
12/16 = x/18 and then cross multiply. You would get 216=16x, then you have to divide both sides by 16 to get x = 13.5

Answer:

Length of garden will be 30 metres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Width of garden be x metres.

then,

Length of garden will be (x+6) metres.

Area = Length × Breadth

720 = x X (c+6)

720 = x²+6x

0 = x²+6x-720

As we can see above equation is a quadratic equation in the form of ax²+bx+C.

so,

$= \frac{ - b ± \sqrt{{b}^{2} - 4ac} }{2a} \\ = \frac{ - 6 ± \sqrt{{6}^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times - 720} }{2} \\ = \frac{ - 6 ± \sqrt{36 + 2880} }{2} \\ = \frac{ - 6 ± \sqrt{2916} }{2} \\ = \frac{ - 6 ± 54}{2}\\= \frac{-6+54}{2} ... \frac{ - 6 - 54}{2} \\ = \frac{48}{2} ... \frac{ - 60}{2} \\ = 24... - 30$

One of the Roots of the Quadratic equation is 24 and other is -30.

And as we know width of any garden cannot be negative so the width of garden will be 24 metres.

As we got the width,

adding 6 to it will give us the Length,

So,

24 metres + 6 = 30 metres.

Length of the garden is 30 metres.

What is the equation of this graphed line?

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

y = -1/3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use rise over run to find the slope: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the points:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(-7 + 3) / (6 + 6)

-4 / 12

= -1/3

Plug in the slope and a point into y = mx + b, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

-3 = -1/3(-6) + b

-3 = 2 + b

-5 = b

Plug in the slope and b into y = mx + b

y = -1/3x - 5 is the equation of the line
