Jack and Jill fetched 24 pints of water in their bucket. Jill drank a tenth of this, jack a quarter. They gave three eighths to

Minchanka [31]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Total water fetched = 24 pints.

Jill drank a tenth of this. This will be:

= 1/10 × 24

= 2.4 pints

Jack drank a quarter. This will be:

= 1/4 × 24 = 6.

They gave three eighths to dame Dob . Thus will be:

= 3/8 × 24

= 9

They gave a fifth to jill's mother. This will be:

= 1/5 × 24.

= 4.80

Amount that'll be left over will be:

= 24 - (2.40 + 6 + 9 + 4.80)

= 24 - 22.2

= 1.8

1.8 pints of water will be left over.

Solve x2 - 8x - 9 = 0. Rewrite the equation so that it is of the form x2 + bx = c.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

x=9,-1 and $x^2+(-8)x=9$

Explanation:

we have been given with the quadratic equation $x^2-8x-9$

we compare the given quadratic equation with general quadratic equation

general quadratic is $ax^2+bx+c=0$

from given quadratic equation a=1,b= -8,c= -9

substituting these values in the formula for discriminant $D=b^{2}-4ac$

$D=(-8)^2-4(1)(-9)=100$

Now, to find the value of x

Formula is $x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{D}}{2a}$

Now, substituting the values we will get

$x=\frac{-(-8)\pm\sqrt{100}} {2}= \frac{8\pm10}{2}=9,-1$

And rewritting the given equation by shifting 9 to right hand side of the given equation and taking minus inside the bracket so as to convert it in the form of

$x^2+bx=c$

lana [24]

Answer:

$Day\ 3 = 16237$

$Day\ 1 = 16390$

$Day\ 2 = 16550$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Day\ 1 = 16390$

$Day\ 2 = 16550$

$Day\ 3 = 16237$

Required

Order from least to greatest

Comparing 16390, 16550 and 16237.

The order of arrangement from least to greatest is:

16327, 16390 and 16550.

So, we have:

$Day\ 3 = 16237$

$Day\ 1 = 16390$

$Day\ 2 = 16550$
