Answer:

<h3>5ths</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

  • Price of whole pizza (A) = 5 × 3 = $15
  • Price of whole pizza (B) = 4.50 × 5 = $22.50

They make 8 whole pizzas.

Therefore

  • Thirds (A) = 15 × 8 = $120
  • Fifths (B) = 22.50 × 8 = $180

They'll make more money if they slice it into fifths.

180 - 120 = $60

Because if they slice it into thirds, total profit will be $60 less

2k^2-5k-18=0 what is both of the values of k? plz help!!! 15 pts!!!
ddd [48]
To factor quadratic equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=y, you must find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions.

jk=ac and j+k=b

The you replace the single linear term bx with jx and kx. Finally then you factor the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms. In this problem...

2k^2-5k-18=0

2k^2+4k-9k-18=0

2k(k+2)-9(k+2)=0

(2k-9)(k+2)=0

so k=-2 and 9/2

k=(-2, 4.5)
