The answer is 18.2
I got the answer by solving it
To do this you want to divide 110 by 5 to get 22. Now you want to multiply 3 by 22. That means the caterer need 66 pounds of tomatoes.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor: -7x^2 -5x+18
Factor -1 out of 7x^2 -5x +18:
−(7x^2+5x−18)
Factor.
1. 18 is negative, so a negative number multiplied by a postive number.
2. You can't factor 7, so 7x times x.
(7x−9)(x+2)
We are asked to solve for the width "x" in the given problem. To visualize the problem, see attached drawing.
We have the area of the swimming pool such as:
Area SP = l x w
Area SP = 10 * 16
Area SP = 160 feet2
Area of the swimming pool plus the sidewalk with uniform width:
Area SP + SW = (10 + x) * (16 + x)
160 + 155 = 160 + 10x + 16x + x2
160 -160 + 155 = 26x + x2
155 = 26 x + x2
x2 + 26x -155= 0
Solving for x, we need to use quadratic formula and the answer is 5 feet.
