Ok so if 1200 total pens and 60 were taken that's a ratio of 1200/60=20
out of 60pens 4 didn't work, again ratio is 4/60=1/15 so about 1/15 of the pens didn't work.
so we have 1200pens * 1/15broken ratio = 80 pens or we can say
20*4=80pens won't work from 20 groups of 60 and 4 out of 60 not working is 20*4=80 not working from total batch of 1200.
hope this helps you some! thank you!!!!!!!!!
8 3/8 would be the answer because first off you would have to find the 8th of the 1/2 and 1/4. Then after you get all of them then you would add them together which would be 8 3/8.
Answer:
![$\[x^2 + 22x + 121\]$](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%24%5C%5Bx%5E2%20%2B%2022x%20%2B%20121%5C%5D%24)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
![$\[x^2 + 22x + \underline{~~~~}.\]$](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%24%5C%5Bx%5E2%20%2B%2022x%20%2B%20%5Cunderline%7B~~~~%7D.%5C%5D%24)
Required
Fill in the gap
Represent the blank with k
![$\[x^2 + 22x + k\]$](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%24%5C%5Bx%5E2%20%2B%2022x%20%2B%20k%5C%5D%24)
Solving for k...
To do this, we start by getting the coefficient of x
Coefficient of x = 22
<em />
Divide the coefficient by 2


Take the square of this result, to give k


Substitute 121 for k
![$\[x^2 + 22x + 121\]$](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%24%5C%5Bx%5E2%20%2B%2022x%20%2B%20121%5C%5D%24)
The expression can be factorized as follows;




<em>Hence, the quadratic expression is </em>

-23 is a negative number so that means 7 is a greater number. any number with a minus sign like this - means it’s a negative number, so any number that you have to compare it to and if that number has nothing before or after it, then that would be the greater number
