Marcel and Floyd are playing games at an arcade. Marcel has $8.25 and is only playing $0.25 games. Floyd has $9.75 and is only p

laying $0.75 games. Jorge wants to find the number of games after which Marcel and Floyd will have the same amount of money remaining. Jorge’s work is shown below.
Let x = the number of games played.

Equation: 8.25 minus 0.25 x = 9.75 minus 0.75 x. Step 1: negative 1.50 minus 0.25 x = negative 0.75 x. Step 2: negative 1.50 = 0.50 x. Step 3: negative 3 = x.


Jorge knows his answer is incorrect because it does not make sense to have a negative number of games. What is Jorge’s error?
The variable x should represent the amount of money left.
From Step 1 to Step 2, Jorge did not add 0.25x correctly to both sides.
The equation should have sums on both sides.
From Step 2 to Step 3, Jorge should have subtracted 0.50x from both sides.

20 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST !! PLEASE ANSWER THIS QUESTION !!
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

-14

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x-5

g(x) = -x^2 +1

g(2) = - (2^2) +1

g(2) =-4+1 = -3

Then stick the -3 in f(x)

f(-3) = 3(-3)-5 = -9 -5 = -14

f(g(2) = -14

A pizza had 9/10 left before Lucas ate 4/5 of the pizza. How much pizza is left over
Norma-Jean [14]
1/10 is left.

Explanation:

First we need to find a common denominator. Since 5×2=10, if we multiply 4/5 by 2/2, we will be able to subtract that from 9/10.

4/5×2/2= 8/10. Then if we subtract that from the 9/10 left of the pizza, we get 1/10, the amount remaining.

Hope this helps :)

Graph the function by first finding its zeroes. <br> y = x3- 2x2 + x
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The zeros of the function are;

x = 0 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeroes of the function simply imply that we find the values of x for which the corresponding value of y is 0.

We let y be 0 in the given equation;

y = x^3 - 2x^2 + x

x^3 - 2x^2 + x = 0

We factor out x since x appears in each term on the Left Hand Side;

x ( x^2 - 2x + 1) = 0

This implies that either;

x = 0 or

x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0

We can factorize the equation on the Left Hand Side by determining two numbers whose product is 1 and whose sum is -2. The two numbers by trial and error are found to be -1 and -1. We then replace the middle term by these two numbers;

x^2 -x -x +1 = 0

x(x-1) -1(x-1) = 0

(x-1)(x-1) = 0

x-1 = 0

x = 1

Therefore, the zeros of the function are;

x = 0 and x = 1

The graph of the function is as shown in the attachment below;

Given z^3 = 3 + square root 3i which letter represents z
Marianna [84]

The expression that represents the value of z is \sqrt[3]{3 + i\sqrt 3 }

<h3>What are complex numbers?</h3>

Complex numbers are numbers that have real and imaginary parts

A complex number (n) is represented as:

n = a + bi

From the above expression, we have:

  • a represents the real part
  • bi represents the imaginary part

Given that:

z^3 = 3 + \sqrt 3 i

Rewrite the above expression as:

z^3 = 3 + i\sqrt 3

Take the cube roots of both sides

z = \sqrt[3]{3 + i\sqrt 3 }

The letters are not given.

Hence, the expression that represents the value of z is \sqrt[3]{3 + i\sqrt 3 }
