Answer:
about 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers round to 600/30 = 20, which is a reasonable estimate.
You can refine this by doing the next step of long division:
29×20 = 580
Subtracting this from 591.3 give 11.3, so the fraction is ...
11.3/29 ≈ 10/30 = 1/3
A better estimate is 20 1/3.

A calculator tells you the quotient is about 20.3897.
Answer:
x = approx. 1.24 or -7.24
Step-by-step explanation:
It's hard to factor directly so we should use the quadratic formula or complete the square. I'm going to go with completing the square.
x²+6x-9=0
x²+6x=9
x²+6x is the same as x²+2·3·x, in order to make this into the algebraic identity (A+B)²=A²+2AB+B², we must add B², or in this case 3² to both sides. (A is x, B is 3)
x²+6x+9=18
(x+3)²= 18
x+3= ±√18
x= ±4.24 -3 (approximately 4.24)
First solution for x = 4.24-3 = 1.24
Second solution for x = -4.24-3 = -7.24
Answer:
it would be c
Step-by-step explanation:
I didn't get the same answers.
In this problem, 25 is your constant (the number of baby hats you already started out with).
26 will be affected by your variable, d, the number of days. With each day that passes, 26 more hats will be knit, so the expression 26d can be used.
Set h equal to the constant + hats made per day to create an expression that you can use to solve for h:
h = 26d + 25
Now, just plug the numbers in for d to get h:
When d = 2, h = 26d + 25 = 26(2) + 25 = 77
When d = 4, h = 26d + 25 = 26(4) + 25 = 129
When d = 7, h = 26d + 25 = 26(7) + 25 = 207
When d = 9, h = 26d + 25 = 26(9) + 25 = 259
Your answers should be:
77
129
207
259
