Answer:

On Saturday night it had sold 35 numbers of cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the Saturday night the ratio of the number of cones to the number of cups sold is 6 : 5 in Freshly frozen yogurt however on Sunday night the ratio of the number of cones to the number of cups is 4 : 1.

Now, if the Freshly frozen yogurt sold 42 cones on Saturday night then in the ratio of 6 : 5, it sold cups $\frac{5}{6}$ times the number of cones.

Therefore, on Saturday night it had sold $42 \times \frac{5}{6} = 35$ numbers of cups. (Answer)

Determine whether −2 is a zero (root) of the function:

lianna [129]

Answer:

The answer to your question is No

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

function f(x) = 2x³ + x² - 10x - 12

To know if a number is a root of a function, evaluate the function on that number, if the result is zero, then that number is a root.

Substitution

f(-2) = 2(-2)³ + (-2)² - 10(-2) - 12

Simplification

f(-2) = 2(-8) + 4 + 20 - 12

f(-2) = -16 + 4 + 20 - 12

f(-2) = -28 + 24

f(-2) = -4

-2 is not a root that the function.

An artist builds a sculpture out of metal and wood that weighs 14.9 kilograms. 3/4 of this weight is metal and the rest is wood.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Given is a sculpture that is built up of metal and wood, and the weight of this sculpture is 14.9 kilograms.

It says that three-fourth of the total weight is metal and says to find the weight of wooden part.

We can find the weight of metal part and then subtract it from the total weight to calculate the answer.

Total weight = 14.9 kilograms.

Metal part = three-fourth of total weight =

Wooden part = 14.9 - 11.175 = 3.725 kilograms.

Hence, the wooden part is 3.725 kilograms.

Simplify using the laws of exponents (4^3)^-2 × (2^3)^4 ×(8/15)^-2

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

$\dfrac{225}{64}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(4^3)^{-2} \times (2^3)^4 \times (\dfrac{8}{15})^{-2} =$

$= (2^2)^{-6} \times 2^{12} \times (\dfrac{15}{8})^{2}$

$= 2^{-12} \times 2^{12} \times \dfrac{225}{64}$

$= \dfrac{225}{64}$

What is the solution of √x-5 = x-11

PIT_PIT [208]

Hey!

To solve x in this equation we must first add five to both sides to get $\sqrt{x}$ on its own.

<em>Original Equation :</em>
$\sqrt{x} - 5 = x - 11$

<em>New Equation {Added 5 to Both Sides} :</em>
$\sqrt{x} =x-6$

Now we must square both sides of the equation.

<em>Old Equation :</em>
$\sqrt{x} =x-6$

<em>New Equation {Changed by Squaring Both Sides} :</em>
$x= x^{2} -12x+36$

And now we must solve the new equation.

Step 1 - Switch sides
$x^{2} -12x+36=x$

Step 2 - Subtract x from both sides
$x^{2} -12x+36-x=x-x$

Step 3 - Simplify
$x^{2} -13x+36=0$

Now we need to solve the rest of the equation using the quadratic formula.

$\frac{-(-13)+ \sqrt{(-13) ^{2}-4*1*36 } }{2*1}$

${13+ \sqrt{(-13)^{2}-4*1*36 }=13+ \sqrt{25}$

$\frac{13+ \sqrt{25}}{2}$

$\sqrt{25}=5$

$\frac{13+5}{2}$

$\frac{18}{2}$

9

$\frac{-(-13)- \sqrt{(-13) ^{2} -4*1*36} }{2*1}$

4

<em>So, this means that in the equation $\sqrt{x} -5=x-11$ ,</em> x = 9 <em>and </em>x = 4.

Hope this helps!
