Divide 4 7/8 by 3/8:
or 39/8 by 3/8. We can drop the denominators 8 and 8 and find 39/3 = 13.
This guy needs 7 more pieces to end up with 20 pieces.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
At the self employed store, her monthly expense would be
y = $835
Which would plot as a horizontal line
At the franchise store here expense would be
y = 5x where x is the number of haircuts completed.
This would plot as a straight line of slope 5
The two would intersect when the two y values are equal
5 x = 835
so the same cost per month would occur at y = 835
at the franchise, she would have completed 835/5 = 167 haircuts.
If she plans on doing fewer than 167 haircuts per month, she nets more money at the franchise,
If she completes more than 167 haircuts per month, the self employed store deal keeps more money in her pocket.
<em>Answer:</em>
<em>2 whole 1/4</em>
<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>
<em>When forming a perfect square trinomial you need to "complete the square".
</em>
<em>All of the steps to completing the square when solving an equation:
</em>
<em>1. The leading coefficient must be 1. </em>
<em>2. Divide b by 2.
</em>
<em>3. Square (b/2)
</em>
<em>4. Add (b/2)^2 to both sides to keep the polynomial balanced.
</em>
<em>5. You can now write the perfect square trinomial and solve.
</em>

x^2 - 3x
-3/2
(-3/2)^2 = 9/4 = 2 1/4
