Answer:
5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the radical by breaking the radical up into a product of known factors.
common difference, d = -3
f1 = -13
An arithmetic sequence f(n) = f1 + d(n - 1)
so f(n) = -13 - 3(n - 1)
f(46) = -13 - 3(46-1) = -13 -3(45) = -13 - 135 = -148
Answer:
f(46) = - 148

According to the statement of the question, we can assemble the following system of equation:
X · Y = - 2 i
X + Y = 7 ii
isolating X from i and replacing in ii:
X · Y = - 2
X = - 2/Y
X + Y = 7
(- 2/Y) + Y = 7 <em>multiplying everything by Y</em>
(- 2Y/Y) + Y·Y = 7·Y
- 2 + Y² = 7X <em> rearranging everything</em>
Y² - 7X - 2 = 0 <em>2nd degree equation</em>
Δ = b² - 4·a·c
Δ = (- 7)² - 4·1·(- 2)
Δ = 49 + 8
Δ = 57
X = (- b ± √Δ)/2a
X' = (- (- 7) ± √57)/2·1
X' = (7 + √57)/2
X' = (7 - √57)/2
So, the numbers are:
<h2>
(7 + √57)/2</h2>
and
<h2>
(7 - √57)/2</h2>
7 total cups of flour divided by 2.33 cups of flour needed per batch of 24 muffins equals three batches, then multiply total number of batches by number of muffins in each batch- 3x24- gives you a total of 72 muffins
