So, the man is 6 feet, but casts a 9 foot shadow. So, you divide 25 by 9, and then you would find it goes into it 2.8 times, so round and get 3 if you want,or keep it. And then 12, or round to 13.
Answer:
y=-(2±√21)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the answer to this, first, multiply the denominator by the whole number. So 3 times 4.
12+1/4
Next, add together the numerator to the value and put that number as the numerator.
Final Answer: 13/4
I THINK there is a typo. Instead of "for problems each day", i think it's "four problems each day."
Anyway, we need to find how many days it takes Jeremy to complete the paper.
If he completes 8 problems on the first day and 4 on the rest of the days, after the first day he'll have 28 - 8 = 20 more problems.
And since he does 4 every day with 20 problems: 20 / 4 = 5 days.
