Answer:

28 potatoes

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Potato = 2 Samosas

So...You would do this equation

56 divided by 2 = ?

<em>STEPS IN THE DIVIDING</em>

2 goes into 5 (2 times)

Subtract. 5 - 4 = 1

Bring down the 6 and you got 16

2 goes into 16 evenly (8 times)

You got your answer!!!

Jill has a collection of bugs. Her collection contains butterflies and tarantulas. She has 47 bugs and counts 320 total legs. (N

Answer:

The solution to this system of equations is:

B = 28
T = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Jill has 47 bugs and counts a total 320 legs.

We can concur that by adding the total number of butterflies and the total number of tarantulas, we will get 47 bugs.

$\text{tarantulas + butterflies} = 47$

We are also told that T is tarantulas and B is butterflies.

$T + B = 47$

Then, we also know that butterflies have 6 legs and tarantulas have 8 legs. So, for every tarantula, we get a multiple of 8 and for butterflies, we get a multiple of 6. This gives us a new equation:

$6B + 8T = 320$

Now, we can set up a system of equation.

$\displaystyle \left \{ {{B + T = 47} \atop {6B + 8T = 320}} \right.$

Using the first equation, we can solve for B.

$\displaystyle B + T = 47\\\\B + T - T = 47 - T\\\\B = 47 - T$

Then, we can substitute this value of B into the second equation and solve for T.

$\displaystyle 6(47-T)+8T=320\\\\282 - 6T + 8T = 320\\\\282 + 2T = 320\\\\2T + 282 = 320\\\\2T + 282 - 282 = 320 -282\\\\2T = 38\\\\\frac{2T}{2}=\frac{38}{2}\\\\T = 19$

Finally, we can substitute this value of T into the first equation to solve for B.

$B + 19 = 47\\\\B + 19 - 19 = 47 - 19\\\\B = 28$

Therefore, the solution to this system of equations is:

B = 28
T = 19

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation 4x2 = 64?

Karolina [17]

<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

x = −4 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x² = 64

Lets get x² on its own. To do this we divide each sides by 4:

x² = 16

Now to get just x, we need to square root this answer:

√x² = √16

x = √16

x = 4

But this can be ±4 as it -4 and 4 squared both give 16.

So your answer is x = −4 and x = 4
