Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
2 divide 1/4 = 
What we have to do here is find a common denominator for both fractions, in this case 4, and change to equivalent fractions with a denominator of 4.
Then we divide across. The denominator of the answer will be 1 because the denominators are the same. Divide the numerators and get 8 ÷ 1, wich is just 8.
"Completing the square" is the process used to derive the quadratic formula for the general quadratic ax^2+bx+c=0. Suppose you did not know the value of a,b, or c of the quadratic...
ax^2+bx+c=0 You need a leading coefficient of one for the process to work, so you divide the whole equation by a
x^2+bx/a+c/a=0 now you move the constant to the other side of the equation
x^2+bx/a=-c/a now you halve the linear coefficient, square that, then add that value to both sides, ie, (b/(2a))^2=b^2/(4a^2)...
x^2+bx/a+b^2/(4a^2)=b^2/(4a^2)-c/a now the left side is a perfect square...
(x+b/(2a))^2=(b^2-4ac)/(4a^2) now take the square root of both sides
x+b/(2a)=±√(b^2-4ac)/(2a) now subtract b/(2a) from both sides
x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/(2a)
It is actually much simpler keeping track of everything when using known values for a,b, and c, but the above explains the actual process used to create the quadratic formula, which the above solution is. :)
Can of baked beans = x
packet of brown sugar = y
packet of biscuit = z
5x + 4y + 2z = 150 - 26 ⇒ 5x + 4y + 2z = 124 is the total cost of all items.
can of baked beans = x = 1/2 of z
packet of sugar = y = z - 3
5(z/2) + 4(z-3) + 2z = 124
5z/2 + 4z - 12 + 2z = 124
5z/2 + 6z = 124 + 12
2(5z/2 + 6z) = 2(136)
5z + 12z = 272
17z = 272
z = 16 cost of a packet of biscuit.
x = 1/2 of z = 16/2 = 8 cost of a can of baked beans
y = z - 3 = 16 - 3 = 13 cost of a packet of sugar
5x + 4y + 2z = 124
5(8) + 4(13) + 2(16) = 124
40 + 52 + 32 = 124
124 = 124
8(8) + 1(13) + 6(16) = 64 + 13 + 96 = 173 total cost on question 3.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 20.56mm
Given the perimeter, find the diameter
= 20.56
D = 20.56 ÷
D = 6.54 mm
Perimeter of the Semicircle = half the circle arc + the straight line (Diameter)
Semicircle = 0.5(20.56) + 6.54cm
Semicircle = 16.83mm
