Its 8/10 or 12/15 because 4 times 2 is 8 and 5 times 2 is ten
The answer is 360. 360 divided by 9 is 40, and 360 divided by 5 is 72. hope this helps!
Answer:
one bag is heavier and the other is lighter.
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 = more than half a pound
1/4 = less than half a pound
Answer:
z = x^3 +1
Step-by-step explanation:
Noting the squared term, it makes sense to substitute for that term:
z = x^3 +1
gives ...
16z^2 -22z -3 = 0 . . . . the quadratic you want
_____
<em>Solutions derived from that substitution</em>
Factoring gives ...
16z^2 -24z +2z -3 = 0
8z(2z -3) +1(2z -3) = 0
(8z +1)(2z -3) = 0
z = -1/8 or 3/2
Then we can find x:
x^3 +1 = -1/8
x^3 = -9/8 . . . . . subtract 1
x = (-1/2)∛9 . . . . . one of the real solutions
__
x^3 +1 = 3/2
x^3 = 1/2 = 4/8 . . . . . . subtract 1
x = (1/2)∛4 . . . . . . the other real solution
The complex solutions will be the two complex cube roots of -9/8 and the two complex cube roots of 1/2.
Answer:
255
Step-by-step explanation:
total cost paid = fixed cost + total variable cost
total variable cost = distance travelled x variable cost per unit
two equations can be derived from the question
a + 10b = 105 equation 1
a + 15b = 155 equation 2
a = fixed cost
b = variable cost per unit
Subtract equation 1 from 2
5b = 50
b = 10
Substitute for b in equation 1
a + 10(10) = 105
a = 105 - 100 = 5
a = 5
cost of travelling a distance of 25km
5 + 10(25) = 255
