Answer:
9 groups
Step-by-step explanation:
The closest option to the actual answer is a.
1 5/18 is the actual answer.
If you make both the denominators the same, then you can actually add the fractions together.
To make both of the denominators the same, you need to multiply 5/6 by 9 and 4/9 by 6, which would result in 45/54 + 24/54= 69/54 = 23/18. If we convert it to a mixed fraction, it would result into 1 5/18.
Let the numbers be x and y. Then xy = -30 and x+y = -3.
Solve xy = -30 for y: y = -30/x
subst. -30/x for y in x+y= -3: x - 30/x = -3
Multiply all 3 terms by x: x^2 - 30 = -3x, so x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0
Solve this quadratic equation for x. x: {-5, 2}
If x = -5, then x+y = -3 becomes -5 + y = -3, and y = 2.
You should check to determine whether x=2 is also correct. If it is, what is the corresponding y value?
