2 cakes - Theresa's and Joe's
Theresa's cake had 6 pieces after she cut it. (2 times the size of Joe's pieces)
Joe's cake had 12 pieces after he cut it. (1/2 the size of Theresa's pieces)
We know that 8/12ths of ONE cake were eaten and that Joe ate 2 of his pieces.
We want to know how many pieces Theresa ate of her cake. Keeping in mind that her pieces are equal to 2 of Joe's pieces we can solve this question.
8/12 eaten total
if 2/12 by Joe
then 8-2 = 6, 6/12 by Theresa
(BUT: Theresa's pieces were twice the size of Joe's so we will divide by 2)
6/12 = 3/6
Answer: Theresa ate 3 pieces of her cake
Answer:
x^3+6x^2+9x
if you are trying to find the original function
if not, and you are trying to find the zeros is
x=-3
x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply x(x+3)
x^2+3x
then multiply that by x+3 and that should give you the answer
When you raise a number to a negative exponent, change the exponent to a positive and make the complete number a fraction with 1 as the numerator.
5 ^-2 = 1/5^2
The answer is C.

Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Make it so the denominator is 100 since a percentage is out of a 100.
2/5 x 20/20 = 40/100
Now turn 40/100 into a percent. Should be simple. 40 out of 100 is 40%.
