Elena is trying to figure out how many movies she can download to her hard drive. The hard drive is supposed to hold 500 gigabyt

es of data, but 58 gigabytes are already taken up by other files. Each movie is 8 gigabytes. Elena wrote the inequality 8x +58 > 500 and solved it to find the solution x> 55.25.
a) Explain how you know Elena made a mistake based on her solution.

b) Fix Elena's inequality and explain what each part of the inequality means.

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Maximum capacity of hard drive = 500 GB

Space used up = 58 GB

Size per movie = 8GB

Number of movies = x

1)

[(Number of movies * size per movie) + used up space] should be less than or equal to the maximum capacity to f the drive.

From Elena's inequality, the total space taken up by movies + used up space is greater than total capacity of hard drive.

That is ;

[(8x + 58 ≤ 500

8x ≤ 500 - 58

8x ≤ 442

x ≤ 442 / 8

x ≤ 55.25

The maximum number of movies Elena can download is 55

(x+3)²(65)=x(6)<br>Solve using quadric formula​
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

  • 65x²+390x+585=6x

Step 2: Subtract 6x from both sides.

  • 65x²+390x+585−6x=6x−6x
  • 65x²+384x+585=0

For this equation: a=65, b=384, c=585

  • 65x²+384x+585=0

Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=65, b=384, c=585

  • x=−b±√b2−4ac/2a
  • x=−(384)±√(384)2−4(65)(585)/
  • 2(65)
  • x=−384±√−4644/130

Therefore, There are no real solutions.

Louis eat 6/8 of a pizza what fraction of the pizza is left over
arlik [135]
1 whole pizza is equal to 8/8. If Louis eats 6/8 then there should be 2/8 left, if your teacher wants it simplified then you will divide both the numerator and the denominator by 2 giving you a fraction of 1/4.

Explain how knowing that 5/8 = 0.625 helps you write the decimal for 4 5/8
tatyana61 [14]
When writing a decimal, the numbers to the left of the decimal are whole numbers greater then or equal to 1. The numbers to the right of the decimal are numbers less then 1.

if u know 5/8 = 0.625, then 4 5/8 = 4.625
