Answer:

s =  -\frac{3}{2}  or -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4s² + 12s = -9

→ Add 9 to both sides

4s² + 12s + 9 = 0

→ Find factors that times to 9 and add to 12

( 2s + 3 ) ( 2s + 3 ) = 0

→ Solve

s =  -\frac{3}{2}  or 0.15

John has a box of nails. The box contains 65 small nails, 40 medium nails, and 45 large nails. Susan has a box of nails that has
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

The total number of nails in Susan's box is 660 nails

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of small nails in John's box = 65

The number of medium nails in John's box = 40

The number of large nails in John's box = 45

The number of medium nails in Susan's box = 176

The ratio of the nails in John's box  is given as follows;

The ratio of small nails in John's box = 65/(65 + 40 + 45) = 13/30

The ratio of medium nails in John's box = 40/(65 + 40 + 45) = 4/15 = 8/30

The ratio of large nails  in John's box = 45/(65 + 40 + 45) = 3/10 = 9/30

Given that the proportion of the nails in John's box and Susan's box are the same, we have;

The ratio of medium nails in Susan's box =  8/30

Therefore;

Where the total number of nails in Susan's box = X, we have;

8/30 × X = 176

X = 176 × 30/8 = 660 nails

The total number of nails in Susan's box = 660 nails.
