If she picks up 1/2 of a box for 6 days, then you would multiply 1/2 by 6. And add the 1 box she started out with. (1/2 × 6) +1 = 4
Answer:
The roots of the equation are x=-3 and x=-2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct quadratic equation is</em></u>
2x^2+11x+15=0
we know that
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form
is equal to
in this problem we have
so
substitute in the formula
therefore
The roots of the equation are x=-3 and x=-2.5
4a + 2c = 70 ; a = 14 ; c = 7 ; 4(14) + 2(7) = 70 ; 56 + 14 = 70 ; 70 = 70
8a + 12c = 196 ; 8(14) + 12 (7) = 196 ; 112 + 84 = 196 ; 196 = 196
Get the value of a:
4a + 2c = 70
4a = 70 - 2c
4a/4 = (70 - 2c) / 4
a = (70 - 2c) / 4
Substitute the value of a:
8a + 12 c = 196
8 ((70 - 2c)/4) + 12c = 196
(8*70)/4 - (8*2c)/4) + 12c = 196
(560 / 4) - (16c / 4) + 12c = 196
140 - 4c + 12c = 196
-4c + 12c = 196 - 140
8c = 56
8c / 8 = 56 / 8
c = 7
a = (70 - 2c) / 4
a = ((70 - 2(7))/4
a = (70 - 14)/4
a = 56 / 4
a = 14
It is very important to read the question carefully. There is chance of being mistaken with the way it has been represented. Also most of the information's required for getting to the solution is already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Cost of each pound = $3.50
Then
The cost of 8 pounds = (8 * 3.50) dollars
= 28 dollars
So the cost of 8 pounds comes out to be $28. I hope there is nothing much complicated about the process and it is understandable.
