Answer:
720 apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the number of apples in the small pack.
QTY for Small Cartons is 15A,
QTY for Big Cartons is 20(A+15) = 20A+300
From small cartons makes 25% or 1/4 of total, means the big carton makes 75% of total, or 3/4 of total. This also means the qty in big carton is 3 times of small carton
20A+300 = 3X (15A)= 45A
300 = 25A
A=12
Altogether = 15A+(20A+300) = 720 Apples
<span>-2x^2-x+7=0
Variable with the highest degree's (exponent) constant, -2 is a, next variable's constant, -1 is b, the constant or number without a variable, 7 is c
using substitution put the numbers into the formula
</span>(-b±√(b^(2)-4ac))/(a^(2))
(-(-1)±√((-1)^(2)-4(-2)(7))/((-2)^(2)) simplify
(1±√(1+56))/4
1±√(57)/4 is your answer
Answer:
64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water
Step-by-step explanation:
In these kinds of questions it is nice to find how muc of 1 thing there is for every ONE of another. so 8 tablespoons of sugar for 12 ouncesof water you can divide both sides by 8 or 12.
Dividing it by 8 gets 8/8 = 1 tablespoon of sugar for 12/8 = 1.5 ounces of water.
Dividing by 12 gets 8/12 = 2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 12/12 = 1 ounce of water.
Now you can take one or the other and multiply it to fit whichever you want to fit a ratio.
It asks what happens if you use 32 ounces of water, so lets use the ratio where we hae 1 ounce, then multiply everything by 32.
2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 1 ounce of water
Multiply by 32 and you get 32*(2/3) = 64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water
Answer:
To run one lap Lin takes 1.6 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this answer you would do 8 divided by 5. Always remember when dividing time goes first unless the instructions / directions / your teacher says differently. So, when you do 8 divided by 5 the answer you get is 1.6, and there is your answer. Also to check your answer you can do 1.6 times 5, and you get 8, so you know that 1.6 is the correct answer.
Answer:
x=1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
First you distribute the 8 over the (x-3) giving you 8x-24. Do the same for 2x and (4-17). That should give you 8x-34x.
Your equation should look like : 8x-24+7=8x-34x
Next try to balance out your equation. You want your x's all by themselves in order to solve.
The 8x's cancel eachother out so you have -24+7= -34x.
Add the like terms of -24 and 7 to get -17.
Equation: -17= -34x
Divide both sides by -34 to get x by itself.
-17/-34 = x
Reduce by dividing the numerator and denominator by 17 to get -1/-2
Since they are both negative the fraction turns positive.
So the answer should be x=1/2
