Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the given values into the expression
3² + 3(8) ÷ 2 - 2(5)
= 9 + 24 ÷ 2 - 10 ← evaluate division before addition/ subtraction
= 9 + 12 - 10
= 21 - 10
= 11
P(x) = x^2 - 1
q(x) = 5(x - 1)
(p - q)(x) = p(x) - q(x) = (x^2 - 1) - 5(x - 1)
Answer: 2/3
Explanation: Assume that the number of smarties he picked is c.
Now, we are given that:
1- He picked 3 times as many cola bottles as smarties. This means that:
Number of cola bottles he picked = 3s
2- He picked twice as many smarties as marshmallows. This means that:
number of marshmallows he picked = 0.5s
Now to get the proportion o f cola bottles, we will divide the number of cola bottles by the total number of sweets as follows:
proportion of cola bottles =
Hope this helps :)
To multiply fractions, you just multiply across so you'd do:
3 × 2 = 6
4 × 3 = 12
The answer is 6/12, but it asks for the simplest form so you can simplify to 1/2. I hope this helps!
