I think the answer is: -4.25
Answer:
your answer is 1/10. hope this helps!
Since Anna is either grouping them as single rock or as group of 10, we need to find the maximum number of groups of 10 as follows: 38/10 = 3.8
This means that Anna can make maximum 3 groups of 10 rocks.
Based on this, the different ways to group the rocks are as follows:
- 3 groups of 10 and 8 (which are calculated as: 38-30) single rocks
- 2 groups of 10 and 18 (which are calculated as: 38-20) single rocks
- 1 group of 10 and 28 (which are calculated as: 38-10) single rocks
- 0 group of 10 and 38 (which are calculated as: 38-0) single rocks
X^3 + 10x^2 + 24x
divide by x
x(x^2 + 10x + 24)
factor it
x(x+4)(x + 6)
now solve for x
the answer is -6,0,-4
1 pound of coffee costs 6.95
3.4 pounds will cost 6.95 x 3.4 = 23.63
