The total number of fish bought was 320. And you know she bought two types of fish. The best way to solve this is guess and check. It would be the fastest. So she bought 7 times as many trigger-fish as parrot fish that means the number of trigger-fish bought was 7p. This means 320 = 7p +p. So all you do is take educated guesses for the number of parrot fish and check if it is right. So if she bought 50 parrot fish. 7(50) + 50 = 400. Close but a bit high. Lets keep guessing. 7(35) + 35 = 245. So now we know the answer is between 50 and 35. So lets try 40. 7(40) + 40 =320. That works so we know she bought 40 parrot fish and 280 trigger-fish.
Subtract 8 from both sides
So you end up with x = -23
Line c has a positive slope since it goes from -5 to -3. and kind d’s slope is 2/5 which is also positive so the answer is a)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello
Match the points on the number line with the rational numbers.
a __ -6/8 = -(2 x 3)/(2 x 4) = -3/4
b __ -2/8 = -2/(2 x 4) = -1/4
c __ -4/8 = -4/(4 x 2) = -1/2
d __ 8/8 = 1
e __ 13/8
We can tell if this is a factor of the polynomial shown by using the remainder theorem.
First, we need to set x + 1 equal to 0.
x + 1 = 0
Now, we solve for x.
x = -1
Now, we can plug this value into the polynomial, and if the solution is 0, it means there is a remainder of 0, which means they divide perfectly.
(-1)^3 - 10(-1)^2 + 27(-1) - 12 = -50
x + 1 is not a factor of the provided polynomial.
