1. Use Difference of squares: a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)
(x+k)(x-k)=0
2. Solve for x and k
x=+-k
k=+-x
Answer:
There are 10 orange marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 25 marbles in the bag
40% are orange
To determine the number of orange marbles, we multiply the total number of marbles by the percent that are orange
25 *40% = number of orange marbles
25*.40
10
There are 10 orange marbles

Answer: 8/35 is the exact answer as a fraction; approximately that is equal to 0.22857 (rounded to 5 decimal places)
Work Shown:
The volume of this prism is equal to the length times width times height. We multiply the three fractions out. To do this, multiply straight across. The numerators group up and multiply. The denominators form a separate group to multiply.
Multiply the numbers up top (numerators): 2*3*4 = 6*4 = 24
Multiply the numbers in the bottom (denominators): 3*5*7 = 15*7 = 105
We end up with 24/105. We can divide both numbers by 3 to reduce the fraction (note how 3 is a factor of each multiplication above)
24/3 = 8
105/3 = 35
So that's how I got 8/35
If you want to convert to decimal form, then 8/35 = 0.22857 approximately.
Answer:
That's all you're doing is writing the equation for two lines and finding out where they intersect. The slope is how much the price is increasing or decreasing and the y-intercept is where the price is starting at.
x = number of hours
y = mx + b = 0.12(x + 3) + 15.21 {It's (x + 3) because we have to add the 3 hours between 9 and noon}
y = mx + b = -0.11x + 15.96 {The slope is negative because the price is decreasing}
Set them equal to each other
0.12(x+3) + 15.21 = -0.11x + 15.96
Now solve for x
0.12x + 0.36 + 15.21 = -0.11x + 15.96
0.12x + 15.57 = -0.11x + 15.96
0.12x + 0.11x = 15.96 - 15.57
0.23x = 0.39
x = 0.38 / 0.23 = 1.7 hours
Convert 0.7 into minutes
0.7 hours * (60 min / 1 hour) = 42 min
So the prices are the same 1 hour and 42 min after noon, which is 1:42 PM
