Answer: 1 1/6 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

First let’s convert 3 1/2 into an improper fraction: 7/2

Then we multiply 7/2 by 1/3: 7/2*1/3=7/6

Then finally we convert 7/6 into a mixed number, so your answer will be 1 1/6

Tameron is driving 540 miles to college. If he drives at an average rate of 45 miles per hour, how many hours will it take him t
andreev551 [17]
Given:
540 miles to college
average rate of 45 miles per hour

How many hours will it take him to get 3/4 of the way there?

540 miles * 3/4 = (540 * 3) / 4 = 1620/4 = 405 miles

405 miles / 45 mph = 9 hours.

It would take Tameron 9 hours to travel 3/4 of the way there.

SOMEONE NEEDS TO EXPLAIN WHY 1.40 DIDNT WORK ON MY QUESTION 2.1/1.488
Zanzabum

My calculator shows that

(2.1)/(1.488) = 1.41129

which is approximate. If you want the result to two decimal places, then it would be 1.41 and not 1.40

Try 1.41 and it should work out, assuming your teacher wants two decimal places.

39 ft/min is how many yd/s
Arlecino [84]
0.0181 yd/s. To solve this problem you use dimensional analysis. You convert the feet and minutes to yards and seconds by using this process. The units of feet and minutes cancel out, so you are left with yards per second. You should get 0.0180555555 when you multiply and divide everything, but you can just round it to 0.0181 or whatever place your teacher wants.

Complete the steps to solve the polynomial equation x3 – 21x = –20. According to the rational root theorem, which number is a po
jeka94

Answer:

Zeroes : 1, 4 and -5.

Potential roots: \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 4, \pm 5, \pm 10, \pm 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

x^3-21x=-20

It can be written as

x^3+0x^2-21x+20=0

Splitting the middle terms, we get

x^3-x^2+x^2-x-20x+20=0

x^2(x-1)+x(x-1)-20(x-1)=0

(x-1)(x^2+x-20)=0

Splitting the middle terms, we get

(x-1)(x^2+5x-4x-20)=0

(x-1)(x(x+5)-4(x+5))=0

(x-1)(x+5)(x-4)=0

Using zero product property, we get

x-1=0\Rightarrow x=1

x-4=0\Rightarrow x=4

x+5=0\Rightarrow x=-5

Therefore, the zeroes of the equation are 1, 4 and -5.

According to rational root theorem, the potential root of the polynomial are

x=\dfrac{\text{Factor of constant}}{\text{Factor of leading coefficient}}

Constant = 20

Factors of constant ±1, ±2, ±4, ±5, ±10, ±20.

Leading coefficient= 1

Factors of leading coefficient ±1.

Therefore, the potential root of the polynomial are \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 4, \pm 5, \pm 10, \pm 20.
