Answer:

Ava's share = $20

Charlotte's share = $16

Step-by-step explanation:

15x + 12x = 36 : multiply each girl's age by same amount and adding gives $36

27x = 36 : add x terms

x = 36 / 27 : divide both sides of equation by 27

x = 4 / 3

Ava's share = 15x = 15 * 4/3 = 20

Charlotte's share = 12x = 12 * 4/3 = 16

Find all rational roots for p(x)=0
Olenka [21]

Answer

C. (5/2, -1/3)

Step by step explanation

Here we use the rational root theorem.

The possible roots are

+1, +3, +5, +15, +1/2, +3/2, +5/2, +15/2, +1/3, +5/3, +1/6 and +5/6

We have to use the synthetic division to find the correct root of this function.

Here the roots are 5/2 and -1/3

Others are not roots of this function.

Let's check x = 5/2  with synthetic division.

5/2)   6   -13   13   -39   -15

-               15    5    45    15

           --------------------------

             6     2   18     6     0

Similarly x = -1/3 is also root of this function.

Answer: C. (5/2, -1/3)

Muffins cost $3.00 per dozen.
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

I agree with both of them

Step-by-step explanation:

A dozen is 12 muffins. Therefore, you pay $3.00 for 12 muffins.

We know that you pay $3.00 for 12 muffins we need to find out how much EACH muffin cost. For that we need to divide $3.00 by 12 which is 0.25.

Now we need to know how much it will cost us for 16 muffins. We use our equation 16*0.25 which is 4. Elena said she will pay 4 so she is right.

Andre said he will buy 8 muffins so we use our equation again 8*0.25 which is 2. He said he will pay 2 so he is right.

Svet_ta [14]

The conversion of 2 liters into millimeters from the information regarding the muffins is 2000ml.

<h3>How to convert?</h3>

From the information, we are told to convert 2 litres into ml. This will be:

= 1000 × 2

= 2000ml

The number of eggs that will be bought to make 500 muffins will be:

= 500 × 2

= 1000 eggs.
