Answer:

1 1/4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write the equation ...

  (1/2) lb = (2/5) × container

Multiplying by the inverse of 2/5 gives ...

  (1/2)·(5/2) lb = container

  5/4 lb = container

  container = 1 1/4 lb

X^2 -9 divided by x+3
WINSTONCH [101]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, there!!

Given that,

\frac{ {x}^{2} - 9 }{x + 3}

{ we can write (a^2-4) as (a^2 - 2^2) also as (x^2- 9) can be written as (x^2 - 3^2)}.

\frac{ {x}^{2} -  {3}^{2}  }{x + 3}

We have a^2-b^2= (a+b) (a-b), so keep same formula on it.

\frac{(x + 3)(x - 3)}{(x + 3)}

(x+3) in numerator and denominator gets cancelled,

(x - 3)

Therefore, (x-3) is the final value.

What is the equation of this line? Picture included
enot [183]
A straight line needs two pieces of information to be identified, a gradient and a y-intercept (technically any point will do but the y-intercept is particularly convenient if we have it).

The gradient is calculated by taking two points on the line, and dividing the change in y-coordinate by the change in x-coordinate between them. I'm going to take the points (0,-3) and (2,-2).

The change in y-coordinate is (-2) - (-3) = 1

The change in x-coordinate is (2) - (0) = 2.

Gradient = m = 1/2

Next we identify the y-intercept, the value of y when x = 0. This value is -3, and we call it c.

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y = mx + c. Slotting in the values for m and c we have ascertained, we find that the equation of this line is:

y = (1/2)x - 3

I hope this helps :)

The sum of two numbers is 27 and their product is 50. Find the numbers.?<br><br>​
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

a + b = 27

=> a = 27 - b

ab = 50

So, (27 - b) x b = 50

27b - b^2 = 50

b^2 - 27b + 50 = 0

Solving, b = 25, 2

Hence,

Case 1: b = 25, a = 2

Case 2, b = 2, a = 25
