The better buy is 36 pens for $5.76 Because if you divide $5.76 by 36 pens Each pan will cost only $.16 and if you divide $4.32 by 24 pans each pen will cost $.18 so the better buy is the 36 pens.

Choose the solutions to the quadratic equation x2 – 8x – 9 = 0. –21 –1 9 29
8090 [49]

Answer:

-1 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the quadratic, factor and set its factors equal to 0. Factoring is the action of breaking up a polynomial into pieces which multiply to make it. The factors are found by multiplying numbers to make C and add to B of ax^2+bx+c.

Here c = -9 and b = -8. The numbers -9 and 1 multiply to -9 and add to -8. These are the factors (x-9)(x+1).

Set each equal to 0 and solve for x.

x-9 = 0

x = 9

x+1 =0

x = -1

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Correct options are:

a) ( 0 , 445 )

d) ( 118 , 209 )

e) ( 172 , 101 )

Step-by-step explanation:

A nickel is worth 5 cents $0.05

A dime is worth 10 cents = $0.10

The relationship between the numbers of dimes and nickels, and the amount of money in dollars is represented by the equation 0.10d+0.05n=22.25. Select the THREE values (d,n) that could be solutions to the equation.

a) ( 0 , 445 )

b) ( 0.50 , 435 )

c) ( 233 , 21 )

d)( 118 , 209 )

e)( 172 , 101 )

Verifying the options

a) ( 0 , 445 )

0.10d+0.05n=22.25.

= 0.10(0) + 0.05(445) = 22.25

= 22.25 = 22.25

Options a) is correct

b) ( 0.50 , 435 )

0.10d+0.05n=22.25.

= 0.10(0.50) + 0.05(435) = 22.25

= 21.8 ≠ 22.25

Option b is incorrect

c) ( 233 , 21 )

0.10d+0.05n=22.25.

= 0.10(233) + 0.05(21) = 22.25

= 24.35 ≠22.25

Option c is incorrect

d) ( 118 , 209 )

0.10d+0.05n=22.25.

= 0.10(118) + 0.05(209) = 22.25

= 22.25 = 22.25

Option d) is correct

e) ( 172 , 101 )

0.10d+0.05n=22.25.

= 0.10(172) + 0.05(101) = 22.25

= 22.25 = 22.25

Option e) is correct

Can u help me out I odnt get it very well
Svetradugi [14.3K]
16,3,3

She wants an equal amount of lotion and hand soap, if you do 48 divided by 16 you get 3 and if you do 64 divided by 16 you get 4 so if she wants equal she can put 3 in each box. Finally if you do 48 divided by 3 you get 16 and if you divide 64 by 3 you get 21.3 if you want equal you must go with 16.

Hope this helps :)
