Answer:
C.) 1 5/b boxes
Number of boxes left over
= 3 - 1/2 - 2/3
Convert each fraction to one in terms of the LCM:
= 18/6 - 3/6 - 4/6
= 11/6
= 1 5/6 boxes.
Answer:
The initial value is $78
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(weekly)
Required
Determine the initial value
The initial value is the amount he has in its bank account before making his weekly savings.
From the question, we have that his initial balance is $78.
Hence, the initial value is $78
However, his weekly balance can be expressed as:
Represent number of weeks with x; So, we have:
Answer:
x = 2
x = -3/2 or -1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
For this, I would use the "slip and slide" method. LOL I know the name is cheesy, but that's what my teacher called it!
First, you "slip" the coefficent of the leading term (2) to the constant, and multiply.
The equation becomes:
x² - x - 6(2) = 0
x² - x - 12 = 0
Then, you factor this out by looking at the second and third terms. You're looking for 2 factors of -12 that would add up to -1 ( the coefficent of the second term).
Automatically, think of 3 and 4, because the difference between them is 1.
The factors must be (x-4) and (x+3) because they multiple to -12, and add up to -1.
This step is extremely important! Lol I used to forget it a lot, but make sure you divide the constant in each factor by the original number you "slipped".
It would become (x-(4/2))(x+3/2) = (x-2)(x+3/2)
With (x+3/2), you don't want to leave it as a fraction or decimal. It's equivalent to (2x+3). However, the informal form is easier to identify the value of x.
Answer: -10 ÷ -2/5
