Answer:
5?
Step-by-step explanation:
i fell like it is 5 pounds I hope this is right..
Answer:
Option A) 32c
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
To find the unit cost, divide the total cost of twelve pounds by twelve pounds
so
Remember that
1$=100 cents
Convert dollars to cents
therefore
The cost of one pound of nails cost 32 cents
-4 = y + 3
y = -4x - 3
Solve for Y in the first equation:
-4 = y +3
Subtract 3 from both sides:
y = -7
Now using the addition method:
rewrite the second equation as 4x+y = -3
Multiply y = -7 by - 1 to get -y = 7
Now add the two together:
4x +y = -3
-y =7
4x = 4
Divide each side by 4:
x = 4/4 = 1
Then replace x in one of the equations to solve for y which is -7
X = 1, Y = -7
Answer: x = 4 and x = -3/2
Procedure:
1) Given: 2x^2 - 5x - 12 = 0
2) Multiply both sides by : 2(2x^2) - 2(5x) - 2(12) = 0
3) Rearrange: (2x)^2 -5(2x) - 24 = 0
4) Notice that the common factor is (2x)
5) Set the parenthesis with the common factor inside:
(2x ) (2x ) =0
6) The first sign is the same sign of the second term of the trinomial, which is negative, the second sign is the product of the signs of the second and the third terms of the polynomial, which is (-)*(-) = + (positive)
(2x - )(2x + ) = 0
7) find two numbers that sum up - 5x and its product is -24.
- 8 + 3 = - 5
(-8)(+3) = -24
=> the numbers in the factors are -8 and +3
(2x - 8) (2x + 3) = 0
That is the factored equation. Now you can solve
8) a) 2x - 8 = 0 => 2x = 8 => x = 8/2 => x = 4
b) 2x + 3 = 0 => 2x = - 3 => x = - 3/2
Answer: the two solutions are x = 4 and x = -3/2
