8 lilies for $3 each equals $24. 12 tulips for $2 each equals $24. Add that together and the total for the bouquet is $48.
Answer:
8/3mph
Step-by-step explanation:
you must multiply both fractions by the reciprocal of 3/10 which is 10/3
(4/5 * 10/3) / (3/10 * 10/3)
(40/15) / (30/30)
(8/3) / 1
8/3 /1 = 8/3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you call "5x-2x^2+1" an "equation," then you must equate 5x-2x^2+1 to 0:
5x-2x^2+1 = 0
This is a quadratic equation. Rearranging the terms in descending order by powers of x, we get:
-2x^2 + 5x + 1 = 0. Here the coefficients are a = -2, b = 5 and c = 1.
Use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
First find the discriminant, b^2 - 4ac: 25 - 4(-2)(1) = 25 + 8 = 33
Because the discriminant is positive, the roots of this quadratic are real and unequal.
-b ± √(discriminant)
Applying the quadratic formula x = --------------------------------
2a
we get:
-5 ± √33 -5 + √33
x = ----------------- = --------------------- and
2(-2) -4
-5 - √33
---------------
-4
Lets use 1 to solve this problem because it is easiest to show.
Multiply 1 by 1.3 for a 30% increase (1*1.3=1.3).
Then multiply 1.3 by .7 for a 30% decrease. (1.3*.7=.91)
Therefore the page had a 9% reduction from its original size or is 91% of its original size.
