Answer:

Booster club purchased 5 pies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pies purchased by booster club be represented by n. The school also donated 3 pies to sell.

So that,

Total number of pies = n + 3

Given that there was 64 pieces of pies to sell after cutting each pie into 8 pieces.

Thus,

8( n + 3) = 64

8n + 24 = 64

8n = 64 - 24

8n = 40

Divide both sides by 8 to have,

n = 5

The number of pies purchased by booster club is 5.

Which statement best completes the sentence below? If the measure of /_4 is 70^o, then the measure of /_8 is _________________.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

As given, measure of angle 4 is 70°

Then what would be the measure of ∠8.

Following cases comes into consideration  

1. If ∠4 and ∠8 are supplementary angles i.e lie on same side of Transversal, then

 ∠4 + ∠8=180°

⇒70°+∠8=180°  [∠4=70°]

⇒∠8=180°-70°

⇒∠8=110°

<u>2nd possibility</u>

But if these two angles i.e ∠4 and ∠8 forms a linear pair.Then

⇒ ∠4 + ∠8=180°

⇒70°+∠8=180°  [∠4=70°]

⇒∠8=180°-70°

⇒∠8=110°

<u>3rd possibility</u>

If ∠4 and ∠8 are alternate exterior angles.

then, ∠4 = ∠8=70°

<u>4th possibility</u>

If If ∠4 and ∠8 are corresponding angles.

then, ∠4 = ∠8=70°

Out of four options given Option A[ 110° because ∠4 and ∠8 are supplementary angles], Option B[70° because ∠4 and ∠8 are alternate exterior angles.] and Option D[70° because ∠4 and ∠8 are corresponding angles.] are Correct.

Simplify (4x^2+2)÷(2x^2-9x-5)​
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

4.1     Pull out like factors :

   4x2 + 2  =   2 • (2x2 + 1) 

Polynomial Roots Calculator :

 4.2    Find roots (zeroes) of :       F(x) = 2x2 + 1

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of  x  for which   F(x)=0  

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  x  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  2  and the Trailing Constant is  1.

 The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient :  1,2

 of the Trailing Constant :  1

 Let us test ....

  P  Q  P/Q  F(P/Q)   Divisor     -1     1      -1.00      3.00        -1     2      -0.50      1.50        1     1      1.00      3.00        1     2      0.50      1.50   

Polynomial Roots Calculator found no rational roots

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

 4.3     Factoring  2x2 - 9x - 5 

The first term is,  2x2  its coefficient is  2 .

The middle term is,  -9x  its coefficient is  -9 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -5 

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   2 • -5 = -10 

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -10  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -9 .

     -10   +   1   =   -9   That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -10  and  1 

                     2x2 - 10x + 1x - 5

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                    2x • (x-5)

              Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                     1 • (x-5)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                    (2x+1)  •  (x-5)

             Which is the desired factorization

Final result :

2 • (2x2 + 1) —————————————————— (x - 5) • (2x + 1)
