Answer:

40 chocolates

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the full box is equal to 100%, we should divide the total by the amount of caramel chocolates. 100/12.5=8. Since there is 5 caramels, multiply 8 by 5. Your answer is 40.

Does thaat makes sense?

2a + 3b = 6
5a + 2b = 4

We multiply the first equation by 5 and the second by 2 and and subtract the second from the first:

10a + 15b = 30
-10a -4b = -8

11b = 22
b = 2

2a + 3(2) = 6
2a = 0
a = 0

Checking,
5(0) + 2(2) = 4
4 = 4, true

PROBLEM 2 The height of a golf ball in feet can be determined using the formula h(t) = -16t2 + 100x , where t is the number of s
wolverine [178]

Answer:

<h3>H. 150 ft</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of a golf ball in feet modelled by the formula h(t) = -16t² + 100x where t is in seconds, we are to find the height of the golf after 2.5 seconds. To do that we will simply substitute t = 2.5secs into the formula given;

h(t) = -16t^2 + 100x\\\\h(2.5) = -16(2.5)^2 + 100(2.5)\\\\h(2.5) = -16(6.25) + 250\\\\h(2.5) = -100+250\\\\h(2.5) = 150\\\\

Hence the height of the golf after 2.5 seconds is 150ft.

Factor x2 -12x + 36
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

  (x -6)²

Step-by-step explanation:

It is worth remembering the form of the square of a binomial:

  (a +b)² = a² +2ab +b²

Note that if "a" and "b" have different signs, the middle term will be negative.

In your case, the square root of the constant is half the magnitude of the x-coefficient, so the trinomial you have is a perfect square. Since you just found √36 = 6, and the sign of 12 tells you the terms have different signs, you know the answer is ...

  x² -12x +36 = (x -6)²

_____

Of course, you recognize (x +6)(x -6) as the factoring of the difference of squares ...

   x² -6² = x² -36

which is not what you have.
