Divide by 3 each time
so
#1 is 9, because 27/3 = 9
#2 is 3, because 9/3 = 3
#3 is 1, because 3/3 = 1
So your answer is 9, 3, 1
hope this helps
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>There are two roots:</u>
<u>The function is:</u>
- f(x) = (x - 3)(x - 2)
- = x² - 5x + 6
Assume that the rule connecting height of the candle to time is a linear one. If you do, then we have to find the equation of this line, and then use this equation to predict the height of the candle after 11 hours.
Two points on this line are (6,17.4) and (23, 7.2). The slope is thus
7.2-17.4 -6
m = --------------- = ----------- or -3/5.
23-6 10
Find the equation of the line. I'm going to use the slope-intercept formula:
y = mx + b => 7.2 = (-3/5)(23) + b. Solving for b, b = 21.
Now we know that y = (-3/5)x + 21
Let x=11 to predict the height of the candle at that time.
y = (-3/5)(11) + 21 = 14.4 inches (answer)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Believe it or not, the two areas are the same.
The base of the rectangle is PQ
The height of the rectangle is PS
Now look at the parallelogram.
The base is PQ
The height is PS
The area has to be the same in both cases. There is no other way to interpret what is happening.
129 divided by 5 is equal to 25 with a remainder of 4.
This means that she will need a total of 26 boxes, but only 25 of them will have 5 cupcakes in them. The last one will have 4 cupcakes.
