A ratio of 3:2.

The easiest way to go about this is to divide the actual number of wins (18) by its corresponding element in the ratio.

So:

\frac{18}{3}= 6

This means every element on the ratio has a value of 6.

The amount of element in the ratio that correspond to losses is 2.

Multiply the actual amount of matches per element in the ratio by the number of elements that represents the losses in the ratio.

6*2=12

Your answer:

<em>"The team lost 12 games."</em>

What is the side length of a 36 inch cube
Vladimir [108]

The side length is 3 inches

<h3>What is the perimeter of a cube?</h3>

The formula for perimeter of a cube is given as:

Perimeter = 12 × side length

We have that;

  • Perimeter = 36 inches
  • Side length be x

Substitute into the formula

12x = 36

Divide both sides by 12

12x/12 = 36 / 12

x = 3 inches

The side length is x and equal to 3 inches.

Hence, the side length is 3 inches

Solve Quadratic Equations by Factoring:
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

  1. x = 0 or 1
  2. x = ±i/4
  3. x = -5 (twice)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factoring is aided by having the equations in standard form. The first step in each case is to put the equations in that form. The zero product property tells you that a product is zero when a factor is zero. The solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero.

1. x^2 -x = 0

  x(x -1) = 0 . . . . . x = 0 or 1

__

2. 16x^2 +1 = 0

This is the "difference of squares" ...

  (4x)^2 - (i)^2 = 0

  (4x -i)(4x +i) = 0 . . . . . x = -i/4 or i/4 (zeros are complex)

__

3. x^2 +10x +25 = 0

  (x +5)(x +5) = 0 . . . . . x = -5 with multiplicity 2

Broderick had $420 in his checking account. He made 6 deposits of $35.50 each. He needs to write 4 checks for $310.75 each.How m
kvasek [131]
So, first you would need to multiply 6 by $35.50, then take that number and add it to the $420 to get $633.00. Then you need to multiply $310.75 by 4. After take that $1243.00 and subtract $633.00 from it to get $610.00. So, the answer is: Broderick would need to add at least $610 to his account to cover his checks.
