Victonia counts this week's food donations at a pet shelter. There are 16 full cases of canned food. There are 4 cases of canned

food that are each missing 5 cans. Victoria records a total of 220 cans of food.
a. Use c to represent the number of cans in a full case. What expression could represent the number of cans in each case that is missing cans?

b. Write an equation you could use to find 16 full cases of canned food 220 cams of food

C. How many cans are in a full case? How many cans are in each of the 4 other cases?

Answer:

We know that C is the total number of cans in a complete case.

Victoria counts:

16 full cases, so in those we have: 16*C cans.

4 cases with 5 missing cans, so in those we have:

Then if each case has C cans, the cases that are missing 5 cans have:

C - 5 cans.

Then in those four cases we have a total of: 4*(C - 5) cans.

And Victoria knows that there are 220 cans, then we have that:

16*C + 4*(C - 5) = 220

16*C + 4*C - 20 = 220

16*C + 4*C = 220 + 20 = 240

20*C = 240

C = 240/20 = 12

Then each case has 12 cans.

Then the number of cans in the cases with missing cans is:

12 cans - 5 cans = 7 cans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps!!!!!!!! :D

Find two additional roots of P(x)=0.<br><br> 13+sqrt 3 and 7i
vova2212 [387]
So, x = 13, x = √3 and x =7i.

now, recall that for an EVEN radical, there are two possible roots, namely is say √3 is say hmmm some value "a", that means that a*a = √3, however, -a*-a is also √3, therefore, ±√3 are two valid values, and therefore -√3 is another one.

now.... keep in mind that, complex solutions or roots, never come all by their lonesome, their sister is always with them, the conjugate, so, for 7i or namely 0 + 7i, her sister is always around, 0 - 7i, which is the other root.

Which following statements are false
denpristay [2]
A) Vertical angles are congruent: It is true. Vertical angles are called opposite angles, so they are congruent. B) Angles with measures between 0- 90 degrees are complementary: It is false. Complementary angles are angles that the sum of their value is 90° C) Straight angles are complementary: it is false. Straight angles are angles which value is 180°. D) Angles with measure between 90 and 180 degrees are obtuse. This statement is true by definition <span>
