Step-by-step explanation:
3x= (-8) -4
x=(-12)/3
x= -4
Answer:
5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Total 'halwa' made = 1
Divided into four equal portion = 1/4
Arrival of an unexpected guest = 1/5
By what percentage has each family member's share been reduced:
Change in the sharing proportion:
Previous share ratio - new sharing ratio
(1/4 - 1/5) = (5 - 4) / 20 = 1/20
That means total reduction in the sharing = 1/ 20
Since each member comes contributed equally:
Reduction in each family member's share ;
(1 / 20) ÷ 4
(1 / 20) * 1/4 = 1/ 80
Percentage reduction:
(Reduction / original share) * 100%
[(1/80) ÷ (1/4)] * 100
(1/80 * 4/1) * 100%
(1/20) * 100%
= 5%
Reduction in each family members share = 5%
Solid paper costs 1.75 each
Printed paper costs 2.50 each
Given:
Ben = $43.50 (12 rolls solid paper and 9 rolls of
printed paper)
Joel = $51.50 (8 rolls solid paper and 15 rolls of
printed paper)
Let x = solid paper
Let y= printed paper
12x + 9y = 43.50
8x + 15y = 51.50
Find X:
8x + 15y = 51.50
8x = 51.50 - 15y
x= (51.50 - 15y)8
Substitute X:
12x + 9y = 43.50
12(51.50 - 15y)/8 + 9y = 43.50
(618 - 180y)/8 + 9y = 43.50
8 (618 - 180y)/8 + 8*9y = 43.50 * 8
618-180y + 72y =348
-108y = 348 - 618
-108y =-270
-108y/-108=-270/-108
Y= 2.50
x = (51.50 - 15y)/8
x = (51.50 - 15(2.5) /8
x= (51.50 - 37.50\8
X = 14/8
X = 1.75
To check: x = 1.75; y = 2.5
12x + 9y = 43.50
12(1.75) + 9(2.5) = 43.50
21 + 22.50 = 43.50
43.50 = 43.50
8x + 15y = 51.50
8(1.75) + 15(2.5) = 51.50
14 + 37.50 = 51.50
51.50 = 51.50
Hope that helps! Have a good day :)
Quadratic f(x) = (x -h)² +k has vertex (h, k) and axis of symmetry x=h. When k is negative, the number of real solutions is 2, because both branches of the function cross the x-axis.
In your equation, h = -3 and k = -8.
Axis of symmetry: x = -3
Vertex: (-3, -8)
Number of real solutions: 2
Answer:
answer is first option
wherein, a = 1, b = -3, c = -5
