Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 156 by 8 and you get 19.5. Angie needs 156 candles, so you round 19.5 to 20.
Answer: -8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
I know this because -1 2/5 is -7/5 and 1 1/7 is 8/7. Multiply the numerator and denominator together and you get the answer
Answer:
When we have a rational function like:

The domain will be the set of all real numbers, such that the denominator is different than zero.
So the first step is to find the values of x such that the denominator (x^2 + 3) is equal to zero.
Then we need to solve:
x^2 + 3 = 0
x^2 = -3
x = √(-3)
This is the square root of a negative number, then this is a complex number.
This means that there is no real number such that x^2 + 3 is equal to zero, then if x can only be a real number, we will never have the denominator equal to zero, so the domain will be the set of all real numbers.
D: x ∈ R.
b) we want to find two different numbers x such that:
r(x) = 1/4
Then we need to solve:

We can multiply both sides by (x^2 + 3)


Now we can multiply both sides by 4:


Now we only need to solve the quadratic equation:
x^2 + 3 - 4*x - 4 = 0
x^2 - 4*x - 1 = 0
We can use the Bhaskara's formula to solve this, remember that for an equation like:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
the solutions are:

here we have:
a = 1
b = -4
c = -1
Then in this case the solutions are:

x = (4 + 4.47)/2 = 4.235
x = (4 - 4.47)/2 = -0.235
D: because if you take 9.50-7.50=2 you would get p=price or the price of the pen.
Hope I helped=)
Answer:
p = -15
Step-by-step explanation:
-2 = (p+9)/3 multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of fraction
-6 = p + 9 subtract 9 from both sides
-15 = p
