Quadratic formula is x = -b+ or- sq rt b^2-4ac / 2a
a=2 b=5 c=-3
-5 +or- sqrt 5^2-4(2)(-3) / 2(2)
-5 +or- sqrt 49/ 4
-5 + 7 /4 = 2/4 = 1/2
-5 - 7 /4 = -12/4 = -3
Factoring a*c is 2*-3 =-6
Factors of -6 that add to 5 are 6 and -1
Split 5x into +6x-1x
2x^2+6x-1x-3 and group
2x(x+3)-1(x+3)
(x+3)(2x-1)=0
x+3=0 gives x=-3
2x-1=0 gives x=1/2
Answer:
<em>12 scoops of dog food are needed for 6 dogs,</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Proportions</u>
The number of scoops of dog foods and the number of dogs are proportional variables.
We are given that 10 scoops of dog foods are used for 5 dogs. This gives a proportion of 10/5=2 scoops per dog.
We also know that 16 scoops are used for 8 dogs. The proportion is also 16/8=2 scoops per dog.
Thus, the constant of proportionality is 2.
For 6 dogs, you need to prepare 2*6 = 12 scoops of dog food.
12 scoops of dog food are needed for 6 dogs,
Answer:
63j
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 2j by 9 and 5j by 9. This gets you to 18j+45j. Then, add these since they are like terms: 63j.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Direct variation
Discussion:
Looking at the table table not that multiplying the x value by 11 gives the y value. That is,
y = 11x
whicf is a direct variation.
Thank you,
