Wow OK so the first number I came to was 72 so that's
bagels 6x12=72
apples 8x9=72
cookies 12x6=72
juice boxes 9x8=72
72/4=18 so she could make their lunch for 18 days
Answer:
see below and attached
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve a system of quadratic equations:
- Equal the equations then rearrange so that it is set to zero.
- Use the quadratic formula to solve.
I have done this (see attached workings) but cannot get any of the solutions you've provided. I have even graphed the two functions, and the points of intersection concur with my workings (see attached graph).
C. Is the answer to your question
Answer:
2244 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The first first thing we must do is find the LCM of the following numbers
(51; 68) = 204.
This means that the first time they coincide is at 204.
Now, since his steps always coincide after 204
In Nick's case
Nick's 204 ÷ 51 = 4th step
and in the case of the father
204 ÷ 68 of his father = 3rd step.
Which means that in the 204 cm distance, there will be a total of 6 foot steps, except in the first 204 cm when your "initial" step is counted.
Replacing these values we have that the total distance will be:
67-1 (initial step) / (6 * 204) = 2244 cm
