Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money Shania was having = $20.

After buying raffle tickets she was having a total of $6.

Thus ,

The money she spent on the raffle tickets = Money she was having initially -

Money she was having after

purchasing tickets .

= $20 - $6

= $14.

Thus She spent a total of $14 on tickets .

Now , number of tickets she bought = 7.

So, cost of each ticket = $\frac{Money spent}{Number of tickets}$ = $\frac{14}{7}$

= $2.

Thus , each ticket costs $2 for Shania.

What is 2 and 5/14 divided by (2 and 5/8 times 1 and 3/7)?

Lina20 [59]

(2 5/14) / (2 5/8 * 1 3/7)....turn them all into improper fractions
(33/14) / (21/8 * 10/7)
(33/14) / (105/28)...when dividing fractions, flip what u r dividing by, then multiply
33/14 * 28/105 = 132/210 reduces to 22/35 <==

Complete the expressions that would make them a perfect square trinomial.

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

a) 16

b) 100

c) 64

d) $\frac{81}{4}$ [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Perfect square trinomial:

A perfect square trinomial has the following format:

$(x \pm a)^2 = x^2 \pm 2ax + a^2$

x² – 8x

$x^2 - 8x = x^2 - 2ax$

So 2a = 8, a = 4. Then

$a^2 = 4^2 = 16$

The perfect square trinomial is $x^2 - 8x + 16$

b. x2 + 20x +

2a = 20, so a = 10

$a^2 = 10^2 = 100$

The perfect square trinomial is $x^2 + 20x + 100$

x² – 16x +

2a = -16, so a = -8.

$a^2 = (-8)^2 = 64$

The perfect square trinomial is $x^2 - 16x + 64$

d. x2 + 9x +

$2a = 9$ , so $a = \frac{9}{2}$

$a^2 = (\frac{9}{2})^2 = \frac{81}{4}$

The perfect square trinomial is $x^2 + 9x + \frac{81}{4}$ [/tex]
