Answer:
a) Amount of pasta remaining ≤ p(12 - 8)
b) Amount of pasta remaining ≤ 4p
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of pasta in one container = p
Let y represent the amount of pasta that is left.
Since the students eat 8 containers worth of pasta out of 12 pasta containers
But we weren't told that the students did not eat out of the 4 remaining pasta containers
y ≤ p(12 - 8)
where y = p(12 - 8) if the students did not touch the remaining 4 containers.
b) Using the distributive property
p(12 - 8) = 12p - 8p
y ≤ 12p - 8p
y ≤ 4p
X=120
2/5-(x/300)=0
Simplify= X/300
2/5-X/300=0
Simplify=2/5
2/5-X/300=0
The left denominater is: 5
The right denominater is: 300
Answer:
x = 1
y = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + y = 15
Step 1: Move 5x on the other side by subtracting it from both sides
y = 15 - 5x
2x + y = 12
Step 2: Move 2x on the other side by subtracting it from both sides
y = 12 - 2x
Since y = y, that means 15 - 5x = 12 - 2x
Step 3: Add 5x to both sides
15 = 12 + 3x
Step 4: Subtract 12 from both sides
3 = 3x
Step 5: Divide both sides by 3
x = 1
y = 12 - 2x
Step 6: Plug in 1 for x
y = 12 - 2(1)
Step 7: Multiply 2 by 1
y = 12 - 2
Step 8: Subtract 2 from 12
y = 10
The formula for a discriminant is b^2-4ac
so, (-7)^2 -4(3)(6) simplifies to 49-72 which equals -23
87.6x.14= 12.264.
12.264 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 12.26
