To answer the problem above, let x be the first integer and x + 1 be the next integer. Given that their product is 600, the equation that best models this situation is,
                             (x)(x + 1) = 600
Simplify,
                                x² + x - 600 = 0 
The roots of the equation above is 24 and -25. Since we are asked for the negative integers, we take x = -25. Thus, the first integer is -25 and the second integer is -24. The lesser integer is -25

First, let's find out how much the 6 boxes weigh. If one box of clay weighs 17.4 ounces, then how much does 6 boxes weigh? Well, let's multiply. 

                                17.4 × 6 = 104.4

Next, let's find out how much clay each student get. Since there are 18 students and only 6 boxes, let's find this out by dividing the ounces.

                                      104.4 ÷ 18 = 5.8

So, each student gets 5.8 ounces of clay. I hope this helps!

Emma goes miniature golfing. She pays $7.50 for an admission ticket and $6.25 for each round she golfs. The total amount Emma pa
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The equation that can be used to determine the number of rounds that Emma golfs is:

x=(c-7.50)/6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, the total amount Emma pays to go miniature golfing is equal to the price of the admission ticket plus the result of multiplying the price per round of golf for the number of rounds and according to this, the equation would be:

c=7.50+6.25x, where:

c is the total cost for Emma to go miniature golfing

x is the number of rounds

Now, you can solve for x to determine the equation that can be used to find the number of rounds that Emma golfs:

x=(c-7.50)/6.25

You can replace c with 26.25:

x=(26.25-7.50)/6.25

x=18.75/6.25

x=3
