Let us assume the regular price of each tube of paint = r.

0.50 off each tube.

New price of each tube = r - 0.50.

She buy 6 tubes.

Total price of 6 tubes = 6×(r-0.50).

We are given total price = $84.30 .

Therefore, we can setup an equation

6×(r-0.50) = 84.30.

Distributing 6 over (r-0.50), we get

6r - 3.0 = 84.30

Adding 3.0 on both sides, we get

6r - 3.0+3.0 = 84.30+3.0

6r = 87.30

Dividing both sides by 6, we get

6r/6 = 87.30/6

r = 14.55

<h3>Therefore, required equation is 6(r-0.50) = 84.30 and the regular price of each tube of paint is $14.55.</h3>

One solution to a quadratic equation is x= -5/3 What is true about any remaining solutions?
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

There is exactly one more real solution or there is exactly one more complex solution

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation is a polynomial of degree two

What this means is that a polynomial has two answers.

Now, from the question, we have an answer already which is a real root

Then the other answer which we do not have can take the form of two answers

It can either be a complex root or other wise be a real root

So the answer to this question is that ;

There is exactly one more real solution or there is exactly one more complex solution

What is the base if the height is 6ft and the area is 14 ft on a triangle ​
insens350 [35]

Answer:

b = 4.66666667

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for finding the area of a triangle is

0.5b x h = a

b = base

h = height

a = area

So I calculated 14 divided by 6

And got 2.3333333

And since that number is half of the base, I multiplied it by 2

2.333 x 2 ≈ 4.66666667
