The answer should be 5 because if there were 100 it would be 20
A bag contains 10 pounds of dog food.
A family feeds their dogs 0.85 pound of dog food a day so cin seven day the dog eats (0.85 x 7) = 5.95 pounds
so, <span>dog food is left in the bag after 7 days is </span>(10-5.95) = 4.05 pounds
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
30 and one-third miles is equal to
one-third of an hour is equal to
Applying proportion
Convert to mixed number
-3/4x + 5/6 y = 15
Multiply through by 6
-9/2x + 5y = 90
Add 9/2x to both sides
5y = 90 + 9/2x
Divide both sides by 5
y = 18 + 9/10x
y = 9/10x + 18
Comparing with the general equation of a straight line y = mx + c
Gradient (m) = 9/10 or 0.9
and the y - intercept (c) = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) Factor the GCF out of the trinomial on the left side of the equation. (2 points: 1 for the GCF, 1 for the trinomial) 2x²+6x-20=0
2x²+6x-20
2(x²+3x-10)
the factors are 2 and (x²+3x-10)
(2) Factor the polynomial completely. (4 points: 2 point for each factor)
2(x²+3x-10)
2(x²-2x+5x-10)
2(x(x-2) + 5(x-2)) group like terms
2(x+5)(x-2)
(3) If a product is equal to zero, we know at least one of the factors must be zero. And the constant factor cannot be zero. So set each binomial factor equal to 0 and solve for x, the width of your project. (2 points: 1 point for each factor)
constant = 2 cannot be zero
the other factors are (x+5) and (x-2)
(x+5)=0 => x= -5
or
(x-2)=0 => x=2
(4) What are the dimensions of your project? Remember that the width of your project is represented by x. (2 points: 1 point for each dimension)
thank you so much, sorry if it's a little confusing!!
(it is indeed confusing, because physical dimensions cannot be negative)
The dimensions of the project (assumed a rectangle) are +2 and -5
