Answer:

4/5 cups to make 1 pound of dog treats

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 cups : 1 1/4 pounds

x cups : 1 pound

Cross multiply

3/4 * 1 = 1 1/4 * x

x = 3/4 / 1 1/4

= 3/4 / 5/4

= 3/4 * 4/5

= 3/5 cups

Write a quadratic equation with the given roots. Write the equation in the form of ax^2+bx+c=0 where a b and c are integers

Bas_tet [7]

You haven't provided the required roots, but I can tell you how to do this kind of exercises in general.

If the $x^2$ coefficient is 1, i.e. the equation is written like $x^2+bx+c=0$ , then you can say the following about the coefficients b and c:

$b$ is the opposite of the sum of the roots
$c$ is the multiplication of the roots.

So, for example, if we want an equation whose roots are 4 and -2, we have:

$4+(-2) = 4-2 = 2 \implies b = -2$
$4 \cdot (-2) = -8 \implies c = -8$

So, the equation is $x^2-2x-8=0$

If your roots are rational, you can work like this: suppose you want an equation with roots 3/4 and 1/2. You have:

$\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{2}{4} = \dfrac{5}{4} \implies b = -\dfrac{5}{4}$
$\dfrac{3}{4} \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{3}{8} \implies c = \dfrac{3}{8}$

And so the equation is

$x^2 - \dfrac{5}{4} + \dfrac{3}{8} = 0$

In order to have integer coefficients, you can multiply both sides of the equation by 8:

$8x^2 - 10 + 3 = 0$

Which of the following is a trinomial with a constant term?

Cloud [144]

Option D x+2y+10 .

A trinomial with a constant term will have three terms, and one of those terms will be a constant, which is a number.

we also know about the Constant

A fixed value. In Algebra, a constant is a number on its own, or sometimes a letter such as a, b or c to stand for a fixed number.

Some relatable terms are :

Monomial: Polynomial having a single term.

Binomial: Polynomial having two terms.

Trinomial: Polynomial having three terms.

In given option we'll define

in option A there is no constant .

option B there i sonly given x which is also not constant.

further in option c it is simply binomial in which only two terms are given without constant .

so at last conclusion is in option D there are three terms are given with one constant which is number 10 .

x+2y+10 is trinomial with a constant.

How do you find the base and height?

dusya [7]

A triangle is 180 degrees. Depending on their angles: Right Angle - 90 degrees
Acute Angle - less than 90 degrees and Obtuse Angle greater than 90 degrees and under 180 degrees. Hope that helps.

A construction crew is lengthening a road. The road started with a length of 59 miles, and the crew is adding 2 miles to the roa

Illusion [34]

The answer is L = 59 + 2(d). If we plug in our numbers, we will get L = 59 + 2(32). 2*32 is 64, and if you add 59 you get 123 miles.

This isn’t apart of the question, but 59 would be the y-intercept. 2 miles per day (2/1) is the slope.

I switched the x and y so it’s easier to see. The answer is (x-1)/(23).
