Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total peanuts = 5/6pounds

They ate = 3/4 of the peanut

= 3/4 × 5/6 = 5/8pounds

They eat 5/8 pounds

Amount left = 5/6 - 5/8

= (20 - 15)/24

= 5/24pounds

Jesus had 5/24 pounds of peanuts left

Gaby plays on volleyball team. In the two games she scored 3/5 of the total number of points her team scored. Her team scored 25

hjlf

Answer:

Gaby scored 27 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find 3/5 of both of the numbers.

What I did was I found 1/5 of each number and multiplied it by 3.

25/5=5, so 1/5 of 25 is 5. 5(3)= 15, so Gaby scored 15 points in the first game.

20/5= 4, so 1/5 of 20 is 4. 4(3)= 12, so Gaby scored 12 points in the second game.

Finally, add 15+12, which equals 27 :).

Show work and Factor 4x^2+xy-18y^2

grigory [225]

Answer:

$4x^2+xy-18y^2=(4x+9y)\,(x-2y)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's examine the following general product of two binomials with variables x and y in different terms:

$(ax+by)\,(cx+dy)= ac\,x^2+adxy+bcxy+bdy^2$

so we want the following to happen:

$a\,c = 4\\ad+bc=1\\bd--18$

Notice as well that $ad+bc =1$ means that those two products must differ in just one unit so, one of them has to be negative, or three of them negative. Given that the product $bd=-18$ , then we can consider the case in which one of this (b or d) is the negative factor. So let's then assume that $a\,\,and \,\,c$ are positive.
