Jeff and his friends win a prize.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anit [1.1K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Prize, P = $352

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Let Jeff's share be J.
  • Let the value of the prize be P.

<u>Given the following data;</u>

  • J = $160
  • J = 5P/11

To find the value of the prize;

\frac {5}{11} * P = 160

\frac {5P}{11} = 160

Cross-multiplying, we have;

5P = 160 * 11

5P = 1760

P = \frac {1760}{5}

<em>Prize, P = $352</em>

The second step in the process for factoring the trinomial is to:
emmainna [20.7K]
Example:  <span>the second step in the process for factoring the trinomial x^2-3x-40 is to:</span> <span>Well you really should find the sum of the factors of −40 (not 40) </span>
<span>But before you can do that, you need to LIST the factors of −40 (not 40) </span>
<span>−1 * 40 </span>
<span>−2 * 20 </span>
<span>−4 * 10 </span>
<span>−5 * 8 </span>
<span>−8 * 5 </span>
<span>−10 * 4 </span>
<span>−20 * 2 </span>
<span>−40 * 1 </span>

<span>NOW we find the sum of the factors of −40 </span>
<span>−1 + 40 = 39 </span>
<span>−2 + 20 = 18 </span>
<span>−4 + 10 = 6 </span>
<span>−5 + 8 = 3 </span>
<span>−8 + 5 = −3 </span>
<span>−10 + 4 = −6 </span>
<span>−20 + 2 = −18 </span>
<span>−40 + 1 = −39 </span>

<span>Then we choose the factors of −40 whose sum is −3 ---> −8 and 5 </span>
<span>x^2 − 3x − 40 = (x − 8) (x + 5) </span>

<span>So FIRST step is B, SECOND step is C, and final step is factoring. </span>
What Rita did was combine these 2 steps together, which you will learn to do as you get better at factoring.

You are comparing cell phones. The old model is 7/8 of an inch thick. The new model is 3/5 of an inch thick. How much thinner is
Sloan [31]

The new model is 11/40 of an inch thinner than the old model.

In order to do this, we need to subtract the new model from the old model.

7/8 - 3/5

In order to complete this, we will need common denominators.

35/40 - 24/40

Then simply complete the operation.

11/40
