Answer:

18 scoops is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 can also be written as 6/8 (multiply both 3 and 4 by 2)

and 1 1/2 is actually 3/2 which can be written as 12/8 (multiply both 3 and 2 by 4)

thus total lentils required is 6/8 + 12/8 = 18/8 cups.

with scoop size 1/8 cup you'll need 18 scoops .

Answer:

18 1/8 scoops

Step-by-step explanation:

Soup:

6 scoops from a 1/8 cup can make a 3/4 cup

Salad:

4 scoops from a 1/8 cup can make a 1/2 cup

If 1/8 means one portion is divided into eight portions, then 8 scoops from a 1/8 cup can make 1 cup.

Answer:

x > -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x by dividing -3 to both side leaving x by itself.

When dividing or multiplying a negative value that has a variable the inequality switches sides. Instead of x < -4 it is x > -4. For more information or to understand inequality search for inequality video online.

Two families went to the event. The first family bought two children's tickets and one adult ticket and paid a total of 8.2 euro
blagie [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

step a system of two equations         c = child ticket     a = adult ticket

eq 1)  2c + 1a = 8.2            multiply by 2

eq 2) 3c + 2a = 14.1

I will multiply eq 1 times TWO and subtract eq 2 from eq 1a)

         eq 1a)  4c + 2a = 16.4

          eq 2)  3c + 2a = 14.1

subtract  (4c - 3c) + (2a -2a)  = 16.4 - 14.1  

                    c      +       0       =   2.3 euros     for one child ticket

Now find the adult ticket price,  plug 2.3 for c into eq 1)

     eq 1)  2c + 1a = 8.2

     eq 1)  2(2.3) + 1a = 8.2         solve for a

                 4.6  + a   =  8.2         substract 4.6 from both sides

                             a =  8.2 - 4.6

                               =   3.6 euros    for one adult ticket

double check using eq 2)    we know c and a values

    eq 2)  3c + 2a = 14.1

    eq 2)  3(2.3) + 2(3.6) = 14.1

                   6.9 + 7.2    =  14.1

                          14.1    =  14.1

Divide 3xsquared - 11x - 4 by x - 4<br><br>a. x+1<br>b. x-23<br>c. 3x+1<br>d. 3x-23​
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

c. 3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the divisor is in the form of x - c, use what is called Synthetic Division. Remember, in this formula, <em>-c</em> gives you the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so do not forget it. Anyway, here is how it is done:

4| 3 −11 −4

↓ 12 4

_______________

3 1 0 → 3x + 1

You start by placing the <em>c</em> in the top left corner, then list all the coefficients of your dividend [3x² - 11x - 4]. You bring down the original term closest to <em>c</em> then begin your multiplication. Now depending on what symbol your result is tells you whether the next step is to subtract or add, then you continue this process starting with multiplication all the way up until you reach the end. Now, when the last term is 0, that means you have no remainder. Finally, your quotient is one degree less than your dividend, so that 3 in your quotient can be a 3x, and the 1 follows right behind it, giving you the quotient of 3x + 1.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
