Answer:
1 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
When you are subtracting a negative number is is the same as adding a positive. So the problem is really 5/8 + 7/8, since the denominators are the same, just add the numerators to get 12/8 divide the top and bottom by 4 to get 3/2 or 1 1/2, if I divide 3 by 2.
Hi,
Let's say we need x mg from 1st compound, and y mg from 2nd compound.
0.20 × x + 0.40 × y = 40mg
0.30 × x + 0.20 × y = 30mg
0.20(x + 2y) = 40. => x + 2y = 200 => 2y=200-x
0.10(3x +2y) = 30. => 3x + 2y = 300
3x + (200 - x) = 300
2x = 100
x =50mg
50 + 2y = 200
2y = 150
y =75mg
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we have that

Using a graph tool
see the attached figure
The function represent a vertical parabola that open up
the vertex is a minimum-------> is the point (-0.5, -9.3)
The x-intercepts are the points when the y coordinate is equal to zero
The x-intercepts are the points (-3.5, 0) and (2.5, 0)
so
the function cross the negative x-axis at point
therefore, the answer is
(-4, 0) and (-3, 0)
