Answer:

1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Ms. Fox loves to eat cereal and she notices that she only has 1/3 of the box of cereal left. If she spread that amount across 5 days, how much cereal will she have for each day?

The amount of cereal she would have per day is calculated as:

5 days = 1/3 of the box

1 day = x

Cross Multiply

5 days × x = 1 day × 1/3 of the box

x = 1/3 ÷ 5

x = 1/3 × 1/5

x = 1/15 of the box

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that strange looking thing is a 9, so begin by multiplying both sides by that denominator to get:

x-9=\sqrt{x}+3 then subtract 3 from both sides to get

x-12=\sqrt{x} and then square both sides to get

x^2-24x+144=x and get everything on one side to solve for x by factoring:

x^2-25x+144=0 and factor that however it is you have learned to factor second-degree polynomials to get that

x = 16 and x = 9. We have to check for extraneous solutions because anytime you manipulate an equation, as we did by squaring both sides, you run the risk of these solutions that actually don't work when you plug them back into the original equation. Let's try 16 first:

\frac{16-9}{\sqrt{16}+3 }=1  If 16 is a solution, then this statement will be mathematically true.

\frac{7}{4+3}=1  and   \frac{7}{7}=1 so 16 works. Let's try 9:

\frac{9-9}{\sqrt{9}+3 }=1  We know that one doesn't work, because 9-9 = 0 and 0 over anything = 0, not 1.

x = 16 is the only solution.

Can there be more than one point of intersection between the graphs of two linear equations? why or why not?
SOVA2 [1]
No because they are straight lines, they cannot curve to intersect more than once, think of a capital X.
