Answer:
3.5 gallons of punch
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 quarts in 1 gallon.
Set up equation to convert 14 quarts to gallons: 14÷4 = 3.5.
Elijah made 3.5 gallons of punch.
Five times the number x plus two
The answer is letter c. x2-8x+24-[72/(x+3)]. If you do not know how to solve this using the long division method, you can always evaluate the options through the process of elimination first. Since the degree of the other factor is already 1 (x to the power of 1), you know that option d. is not the correct answer because you know that the other factor must be raised to the power of 2. That leaves us with a, b and c. Working backwards and multiplying the given factor (x+3) with the factor in b, gives us x3-5x2+72. So from there, you know that you have to eliminate 72, which can be removed when it is subtracted by itself. Letter c does just that. Try multiplying (x+3) and option c for yourself :).
Let's go ahead and construct an equation to show this. Together, they have 50 goldfish. This can be represented as =50.
Since we don't know how many Todd has, we're going to make a variable. We'll name it T, for Todd.
What about Andres? How many does he have? 10 more than Todd. Well, if Todd's amount is T, and Andres has 10 more, we can express that as T+10.
Now, just put the two pieces together! T+10=50.
The next step is inverse operations. You want to find out how many T is, so you need to get rid of the 10. To take 10 away from something is doing what? Subtraction! Be warned, though; whatever you do to one side of the problem, you have to do to the other. 10-10 is 0, and 50-10 is 40. Since we took the 10 away and 50 is now 40, what you're left with is T=40.
Wait a second.. wasn't "T" Todd's amount? Yep! That means that Todd has 40 goldfish. And we already know that Andres has 10, so there's your answer!
Answer:
w > -2
Step-by-step explanation:
9 + w > 7
Subtract 9 from both sides to end up with w alone on the left side.
w > -2
