The answer is 5/8 because they both are divisable by 10
<em>Question Continuation:</em>
<em>Glenn bought 3 pounds of tomatoes. He used 5/8 of them to make sauce.
</em>
<em>Make an equation that shows the number of pounds of tomatoes Glenn used for the sauce.</em>
<em></em>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Weight of Tomato = 3 lb
Used Proportion = 5/8
Required
Determine the portion used
To solve this we simply multiply the used proportion by the weight of the tomato bought
Represent the used portion with y.
So:



Answer:
Lion: y = 50x - 295
Elephant: y = 25x - 147.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate using the discriminant (the part of the quadratic equation under the square root sign) b²-4ac
In your equation, a=1, b=(-2), and c=(-8)...substitute their values into the discriminant:
(-2)²-4(1)(-8)
4+32 = 36
The value is positive, therefore the equation has two real roots.
It's a perfect square (√36=6) so the roots are rational
Answer: two real, rational roots
(If the result was a negative number, the system would have two irrational roots. If the result was zero, the system would have a <em>double root </em>(one value repeated twice - when graphed, the vertex of the parabola falls on the x-axis)∨<em />
