#1.) A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers. The number 8 is a rational number because it can be written as the fraction 8/1.
I don't want to give you the answer cause that will not help you I'm the future If I just give it to you. It might help you but that's what I learned in school is that it doesn't help. Because like if you cheat on a test you won't get to learn. But if you did it yourself and got it wrong you can see why
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If (x+8) is a factor of f(x), then for some expression p, we have ...
f(x) = (x+8)p
Evaluated at x=-8, this gives ...
f(-8) = (-8+8)p = 0p
f(-8) = 0 . . . . must be true
_____
Similarly, f(8) = (8+8)p = 16p. This may or may not be zero, depending on the factors of p. The only offered statement that <em>must</em> be true is the one shown above.
Answer:
x = 5 , y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this using substitution.
Let the quantity of cheese wafers be denoted by x and the quantity of chocolate wafers denoted by y
2x + 1y = 25
x + y = 20
These two equations are the answer to part A, (remember to include the above prompt which says what x and y denote).
For part B I used substitution because it was more applicable to the question then addition or elimination.
ACTUAL WORK
Set 2x + 1y = 25 equal to x
x = 25 - y / 2
Replace x with y in the second equation
(25 - y / 2) + y = 20
And solve for y
y = 15
Since we know what y is we can replace y in the second equation and find what x is
x + 15 = 20
Solve for x
x = 5
Answer:
x = -5 y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x + 2y = 9
multiply the 2nd equation by 3 to set it up for elimination
3(x - 3y)= 3(4)
3x-9y = 12
so now combine both to add
-3x + 2y = 9
3x - 9y = 12
Adding both gives you
-7y = 21
divide both by -7 and you get
y = -3
and you substitute y back into equation to get x
x - 3 (-3) = 4 gives you
x + 9 = 4
x = 4 - 9
x = -5
