Melinda walked 9/10 of a mile for 5 days. What was the total distance in miles, she walked 5 days?

1 answer:

3 0

Multiply how far she walked each day by the number of days.

= 9/10 mile * 5 days
multiply numerator (top) by 5

= (9*5)/10
= 45/10

reduce by 5
= 9/2

convert to mixed number (2 goes into 9 four times with a remainder of one)
= 4 1/2 miles

ANSWER: She walked 4 1/2 miles in 5 days.

Hope this helps! :) If you found it helpful, please mark me brainliest.

Find all the zeros of 2x4+x3-14x2-19x-6 two of its zeros are -2 and -1

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

$-2,\ -1,\ -\dfrac{1}{2},\ 3.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider polynomial $2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6.$

If x=-2 is its zero, then you can divide the polynomial $2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6$ by $x+2$ and get

$2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6=(x+2)(2x^3-3x^2-8x-3).$

If x=-1, then the polynomial $2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6$ can be rewritten as

$2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6=(x+2)(x+1)(2x^2-5x-3).$

The quadratic polynomial has roots

$x_{1,2}=\dfrac{-(-5)\pm\sqrt{(-5)^2-4\cdot2\cdot(-3)}}{2\cdot 2}=\dfrac{5\pm \sqrt{25+24}}{4}=\dfrac{5\pm \sqrt{49}}{4}=3,-\dfrac{1}{2}.$

Then the polynomial $2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6$ has zeros $-2,\ -1,\ -\dfrac{1}{2},\ 3.$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 15 tamales is $10, you can take 10/15 to get the price of one tamale, 0.67. Since you know the price of one tamale now, you can multiply 0.67*36 to get that 36 tamales is equal to $24
