Answer:

120 planters.

Step-by-step explanation:

given each planter can hold (1/8) of soil

i.e:

1/8 bag -------> can fill 1 planter

1 bag -----------> can fill 1 / (1/8) = 8 planters

15 bags ---------> can fill 8 planters per bag x 15 bags = 120 planters.

_______________

Solve the equation:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8}{x-5}-\dfrac{9}{x-4}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}\qquad\qquad(x\ne 5~and~x\ne 4)}$

Reduce the fractions at the left side so that they have the same denominator:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8(x-4)}{(x-5)(x-4)}-\dfrac{9(x-5)}{(x-4)(x-5)}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-4x-5x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-4x-5x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-9x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32-(9x-45)}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}$

Numerators must be equal:

$\mathsf{8x-32-(9x-45)=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-32-9x+45=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-9x=5+32-45}\\\\
\mathsf{-x=-8}\\\\
\mathsf{x=8}\quad\longleftarrow\quad\textsf{this is the solution.}$

I hope this helps. =)

Least to greatest 3/4,5/8,3/7,1/3,2/5

tangare [24]

Answer:

1/3 < 2/5 < 3/7 < 5/8 < 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given inputs:

3/4 5/8 3/7 1/3 2/5

The least common denominator (LCD) is: 840.

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

3/4= 630/840

5/8= 525/840

3/7= 360/840

1/3= 280/840

2/5= 336/840

Sorting this by the numerators of the equivalent fractions in order from least to greatest:

1/3= 280/840= < 2/5= 336/840= < 3/7= 360/840= < 5/8= 525/840= < 3/4 = 630/840

Therefore, the sorted inputs in order from least to greatest is:

1/3 < 2/5 < 3/7 < 5/8 < 3/4

Hopes this helps!

Have a good evening! :)
