Answer:

She bought 12 gallons.

41.49 / 3.68 = 11.2

*I rounded it to 12 because you can't go below 11.2*

12 x 3.68 = 41.49

Solve for 2x^2-4x+5=6

Softa [21]

To solve for a variable, you need to get it (x) by itself.

2x² - 4x + 5 = 6 Subtract 6 from both sides
2x² - 4x - 1 = 0 Plug this into the Quadratic Formula

a = 2 , b = -4 , c = -1
x = $\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$ Plug in your values
x = $\frac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{(-4)^2 - 4(2)(-1)} }{2(2)}$ Simplify
x = $\frac{4 \pm \sqrt{16 + 8} }{4}$ Simplify
x = $\frac{4 \pm 2\sqrt{6} }{4}$ Simplify by removing a 2 from every term
x = $\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Simplify by taking the fraction apart
x = $\frac{2}{2} \pm \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Change $\frac{2}{2}$ to 1
x = 1 $\pm \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Simplify $\frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ to $\sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} }$
x = 1 $\pm \sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} }$

How do you figure out the arithmetic sequence of 8,9,10,-10

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

where:

aₙ = nth term

a₁ = first term

d = common difference

The sequence 8,9,10,-10 is not an arithmetic sequence.

Lynn has a box of crayons.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

<em>There are 72 crayons in the box</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Fractions</u>

To solve this problem we'll manage numbers as fractions to keep the precision up to the end of it.

Lynn has a box of crayons. It's given 4/9 of the crayons are blue. The remaining crayons are:

$1-\frac{4}{9}=\frac{5}{9}$

From that portion, 65% are red, or equivalently, 35% are yellow.

We write 35% as a fraction:

$\displaystyle 35\%=\frac{35}{100}=\frac{7}{20}$

Thus, the portion of yellow crayons is:

$\displaystyle \frac{7}{20}\cdot \frac{5}{9}=\frac{7}{36}$

This fraction of x crayons is equal to 14, thus:

$\displaystyle x=\frac{14}{\frac{7}{36}}=14\cdot\frac{36}{7}$

x = 72

There are 72 crayons in the box
