We know that 8/75 patients prefer bubblegum toothpaste. We want to make the ratio, “_:1500”. To do this, we divide 1500 by 75 to get 20. The ratio is now p : 1500. Now, we must do the same thing on both ends: since 75 times 20 got us 1500, 8 times 20 gets us 160. So, 160 out of the dentist’s 1,500 patients prefer bubblegum toothpaste.

D= number of dollars
padilas [110]

<u>Unit rate 4:</u>

The table

d      n

4       1

8       2

16      4

<u>Unit rate 1/4:</u>

Table

d      n

1       4

4       16

16      64

and

The equation n=4d

<u>Unit rate 16:</u>

Equation:

d = 16n

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit in the unit rate is dollars per unit ounces which means that the unit rate calculated by

Unit\ rate = \frac{dollars}{ounces}

So,

The first option is the equation:

d = 16n\\\frac{d}{n} = 16

The unit rate is 16 dollars per ounce

The second option is the table:

d      n

1       4

4       16

16      64

We can take any pair of values of d and n from the table to calculate the unit rate

So taking

d = 1

n=4

Unit\ rate = \frac{d}{n}\\= \frac{1}{4}

The unit rate for table is: 1/4 dollars per ounces

Third option is the equation:

n = 4d

n = 4d

dividing both sides by n

\frac{n}{n} = \frac{4d}{n}\\1 = \frac{4d}{n}

dividing both sides by 4

\frac{1}{4} = \frac{4d}{4n}\\\frac{d}{n} = \frac{1}{4}

the unit rate is 1/4 dollars per ounce

Fourth option is the table:

d      n

4       1

8       2

16      4

We will take any pair of d and n to find the unit rate

So,

Taking

d = 4

n =1

Unit\ rate = \frac{d}{n} \\= \frac{4}{1}\\=4

The unit rate is 4 dollars per unit ounce.

Given the trinomial 2x2 + 4x + 4, predict the type of solutions.
rodikova [14]
Trinomial 2x² + 4x + 4.

It's of the form ax²+bx+c and it's discriminant is Δ=b² - 4.a.c 

(in our case Δ = 4² - (4)(2)(4) → Δ = - 32

We know that: x' = -1 + i     and x" = -1 - i

If Δ > 0 we have 2 rational solutions x' and x"

If Δ = 0 we have1 rational solution x' = x"

If Δ < 0 we have 2 complex solutions x' and x", that are conjugate

In our example we have Δ = - 16 then <0 so we have 2 complex solutions

That are x'= [-b+√Δ]/2.a      and x" = [-b-√Δ]/2.a

x' =
