Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
+6x-5=0
we divide the coefficient of the X by half :
in this case: 6/2 = 3 , then we do the following
The result obtained is raised to square power: 3^2=9
we sum and subtract by 9 to maintain the balance of the equation:
+6x+9-9-5=0
we have:
-9-5=0
= 14
lets apply square root on both sides of the equation:

we know:

so we have:
abs(x+3)=
from where two solutions are obtained

finally we have:

OK, 60 pounds is weight.... cost is money.... what the what?
The amount of balls in a given layer can be found by squaring the layer it is in
4 layers
top layer (1st) is 1
2nd is 4
3rd layer is 9
4th is 16
add them up
1+4+9+16=30
30 in that pyramid
Answer is C.
For every option, sub in the value and find the answer that matches the equation!
Example for option A, F(x) = x + 4 and G(x) = x²
G(F(x)) = G(x + 4) ーー> sub in the value of F(x)
Let's take the subbed in value, (x + 4) as x, and this x will be the x for G(x).
∴ Since G(x) is x²
G(x + 4) = (x + 4)² ーー> remember (x + 4) is represented as x.
= x² + 16
∴ You know that the answer is not A, do this for all options and you'll find the answer, C!
The first question asks who sold more rolls. So start with figuring out how many Christie sold.
5 total - 1 2/3 left = 3 1/3 sold
you can convert the numbers to improper fractions with the same denominator. Like this:
5 x (3/3) - (3+2)/3
15/3 - 5/3 = 10/3
10/3 = 3 1/3
So now we know Christie sold more because 3 1/3 dozen is more than 2 1/2 dozen.
The part asks how many more.. Subtract the amounts the two girls sold.
3 1/3 - 2 1/2
10/3 x (2/2) - 5/2 x (3/3)
20/6 - 15/6 = 5/6
Christie sold 5/6 dozen more rolls. A dozen is 12 rolls so if you wanted to go further you just multiply 12 x 5/6 = 10 rolls
