Solve the question: 4/5 (b-1)-1/b=1

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

We know that (4/5b - 4/5 - 1) / b = 1

Which means that b = 4/5b - 4/5 - 1

So we put variable on one side and numbers on the other side

So 1/5b = - 9/5

So b = - 9

Find all complex solutions of 5x^2-6x+2=0.

gregori [183]

We use quadratic formula for that one
remember that √-1=i

so

for
ax^2+bx+c=0
$x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$
so
given
5x^2-6x+2=0
a=5
b=-6
c=2

$x=\frac{-(-6)+/-\sqrt{(-6)^2-4(5)(2)}}{2(5)}$
$x=\frac{6+/-\sqrt{36-40}}{10}$
$x=\frac{6+/-\sqrt{-4}}{10}$
$x=\frac{6+/-2i}{10}$

$x=\frac{3}{5}+\frac{i}{5}, \frac{3}{5}-\frac{i}{5}$

A recipe uses 2 cups of flour to make 18 cupcakes. How much flour is needed to make 27 cupcakes?

drek231 [11]

Answer:

3 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

we can solve this by setting up ratios

$\frac{2 cups}{18 cupcakes} = \frac{x}{27 cupcakes}$

cross multiply:

$(2)(27) = 18x$

$54 = 18x$

solve for x

$x = 3 cups$
