Alice purchased 4 1⁄2 kilograms of olive oil for $27. What is the price per kilogram?

<h3>Answer: 6 dollars per kilogram</h3>

=====================================================

Explanation:

The mixed number 4 & 1/2 converts to the decimal form 4.5

The unit price is 27/(4.5) = 6 dollars per kilogram

------

If you wanted, you can think of it like this ratio

4.5 kg : 27 dollars

Dividing both parts of that ratio by 4.5 will lead to

1 kg : 6 dollars

Answer:

The quotient when x^3-4x^2-8x+8 is divided by x+2 is x^2-6x+4 with no remainder, so x+2 is a factor of p(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

As the question suggests, there are two ways to solve this problem: long division (which can always be used to divide polynomials), and synthetic division (which can only be used when you are dividing by something of the form (x-a). In this case, we may use synthetic division, since x+2 is equal to x-(-2). I will use synthetic division here as it is slightly faster than long division.

The -2 on the left represents that we are dividing by x-(-2), and the rest of the numbers in the top row are the coefficients of p(x): 1, -4, -8, and 8.

The first step in synthetic division is to being down the leading coefficient of the polynomial: in this case, the 1 (as indicated in red). Now, we multiply the 1 by -2. We get -2, which we place directly below the -4.

Next, we add directly down the column, (-4 + (-2) is equal to -6), and this answer is placed in the box below. We can continue this process, getting the coefficients 1, -6, 4, and 0 in the bottom row.

This is the answer: the quotient is x^2-6x+4, and the remainder is zero (which indicates that x+2 is a factor of p(x)).

--

Edit: long division

We may also solve this problem using long division (see the second image). The first step is to look at the leading coefficients: since x \times x^2 is equal to x^3, the first term in the quotient will be x^2. Since x^2 \times (x+2) is equal to x^3+2x^2, we must now subtract that from x^3-4x^2-8x+8.

We repeat the same process, as shown in the image. Since we eventually get to zero, the remainder is zero, and the polynomial at the top (x^2-6x+4) is the quotient.

What is the y-intercept for the equation 4x+2y=6?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The y intercept is 3

(0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+2y=6

To find the y intercept, set x =0 and solve for y

4(0) +2y = 6

0+2y = 6

Divide by 2

2y/2 = 6/2

y =3

The y intercept is 3

(0,3)

In january of one winter, 3/10 of a wood pile was used in a wood stove. In February, 2/5 of the wood pile was used. What part of
arsen [322]
2/5 is equivalent to 4/10 so at the end of February 4/10 was used up
And at the end of January, 3/10 was used
so 4/10 + 3/10 = 7/10

At the end of February, 7/10 of the wood was used

The number of hours a typical student spends per week at school has an Order of Magnitude of 1.
Margarita [4]
If the number of hours in school each week is somewhere between 20 and 40, then it can be written in scientific notation as
  2.0×10¹ to 4.0×10¹

The exponent of 10 in each case is 1, so we can say the Order of Magnitude is 1.
  TRUE


_____
In Engineering terms, the order of magnitude is sometimes considered to be the integer part of the base-10 logarithm of the number.
  log(20) ≈ 1.3010
  log(40) ≈ 1.6021
If we round these numbers to integers, we find the order of magnitude of the first is 1; the order of magnitude of the second is 2. Thus a student who spends 6 hours per day for 5 weekdays in class will have hours with an order of magnitude of 1, while a student who spends 7 hours per day for 5 days each week will have hours with an order of magnitude of 2. This question is best answered by considering "order of magnitude" in the simplistic terms of the answer above: the exponent of 10 in scientific notation.
