Let's say that the price of each normal cookie is n.
The equation would then be 7(n - .75)=2.80.
Use distributive property, getting 7n - 5.25=2.80.
Add 5.25 to each side of the equation, getting 7n=8.05.
Divide 7 from both sides of the equation, getting n=1.15.
Rounded up to 0.4
ffffffffff
Answer:
Each teacher will have 21 students
Step-by-step explanation:
273 divded by 21 = 21
Find the possible rational roots and use synthetic division to find the first zero.
I chose x=1 (which represents the factor "x-1")
1║2 -7 -13 63 -45
║ 2 -5 -18 45
2 -5 -18 45 0
(x-1) is a factor, (2x³ - 5x² - 18x + 45) is the other factor.
Use synthetic division on the decomposed polynomial to find the next zero.
I chose x = 3 (which represents the factor "x-3")
3║2 -5 -18 45
║ 6 3 -45
2 1 -15 0
Using synthetic division, we discovered that (x-1), (x-3), & (2x² + x -15) are factors. Take the new decomposed polynomial (2x² + x -15) and find the last two factors using any method.
Final Answer: (x-1)(x-3)(x+3)(2x-5)
