Answer: $\frac{2}{5}\ pound$ denotes a fraction to represent this situation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of friends = 5

Amount of trail mix = 2 pounds

We have given that 5 friends will share 2 pounds of trail mix ,we get,

We will use "Division Operation".

$\frac{2}{5}\ pound$

Hence, $\frac{2}{5}\ pound$ denotes a fraction to represent this situation.

Answer:

The rectangles are not similar

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to check whether they are similar, we need to take the ratio of their similar sides and ensure they are equal to a constant k.

Hence;

AB/PL = AD/LM = k

32/26 = 18/12 = k

16/13 = 9/6 = k

Since the scale factor is not the same, hence the rectangles are not the same.

Solve the following system of equations. (Hint: Use the quadratic formula.) f(x) = 2x² 3x g(x)=-3x² + 20 (0.-10) and (1, 17) (-2

jasenka [17]

The solution of the system of equation is the intersection point of the two quadratic equations, so we need to equate both equations, that is,

$2x^2-3x-10=-3x^2+20$

So, by moving the term -3x^3+20 to the left hand side, we have

$5x^2-3x-30=0$

Then, in order to solve this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

In our case, a=5, b=-3 and c=-30. So we get

$x=\frac{3\pm\sqrt{(-3)^2-4(5)(-30)}}{2(5)}$

which gives

$\begin{gathered} x=2.76779 \\ and \\ x=-2.16779 \end{gathered}$

By substituting these points into one of the functions, we have

$f(2.76779)=-2.982$

and

$f(-2.16779)=5.902$

Then, by rounding these numbers to the nearest tenth, we have the following points:

$\begin{gathered} (2.8,-3.0) \\ and \\ (-2.2,5.9) \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the answer is the last option
