Length should be 2/5yd:

18inch*1yd/36inch=.5yd=> depth

volume= 2(length*width+lenght*depth+depth*width)

let l to be the length.

volume= 2(l*2+2(.5)+.5*2)

volume=5l+2

4=5l+2

2=5l

l=2/5

a store is having a sale on walnuts and chocolate chips. for 3 pounds of walnuts and 5 pounds of chocolate chips, the total cost

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Walnuts - $1.25, chocolate chips - $3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let walnuts = x, chocolate chips = y

Set a system and solve:

3x + 5y = 20
6x + 2y = 14

Double the first equation and subtract the second one from it:

6x + 10y - 6x - 2y = 40 - 14
8y = 26
y = 26/8
y = 3.25

Find the value of x:

6x + 3.25*2 = 14
6x = 14 - 6.5
6x = 7.5
x = 7.5/6
x = 1.25

How do I solve qudratic equations with factions, like this one: <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B3%7D%2

IceJOKER [234]

There are several approaches.

(5/3)x^2 - 5 = 0 has the coefficients a=5/3, b=0 and c = -5.

Thus, the quadratic formula would be appropriate here:

-0 plus or minus sqrt(0^2 - 4(5/3)(-5) )
x = -------------------------------------------------------
2(5/3)
plus or minus sqrt(100/3)
= ------------------------------------
10/3
3 10
= ------* ----------- = sqrt(3) (answer)
10 sqrt(3)
