Answer:
A,B,C
Step-by-step explanation:
A.p.e.x
(x2 - 4x + 4)/(x2 + 10x + 25) • (x + 5)/(x2 + 3x - 10)
((x - 2)2)/((x + 5)2) • (x + 5)/(x + 5)(x - 2)
(x - 2)/((x + 5)2) • 1
(x - 2)/((x + 5)2)
The answer is B.
1st week - Lost 3 pounds = +3
2nd week - Gained 1 pound = -1
3+13 = + 22
So 22+3 = 25 25-1 = 24
So Tina lost 24 pounds in 13 weeks.
Answer:
10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
42/4 can be reduced by dividing numerator and denominator by 2: 21/2.
This is an improper fraction. One way to obtain the equivalent mixed number would be to multiply numerator and denominator of 21/2 by 5, obtaining 105/10, which reuces to 10.5.
We could also divide 42 by 4 in the usual way, obtaining 10.5.
So we know the tank already has 5 gallons and we need 9. This means we need 4 more gallons in order to fill up the tank.
If 1/4 gallon is being filled per minute we need to find out how many 1/4 gallons makes up 4 gallons in total.
4 of the 1/4 gallons makes up 1 whole gallon. So since we need 4 whole gallons we would need 16 of the 1/4 gallons.
This means that it will take 16 minutes for the tank to hold 9 gallons of water.
