Answer:

If there's 10 cookies in the jar, and if 2 are peanut butter, the fraction for peanut butter cookies is 1/5, simplified.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • 10 Cookies Total
  • 3 are Oreo cookies
  • 2 are peanut butter cookies
  • 4 are chocolate chip cookies
  • 1 is a sugar cookie

Bolded text represents what we'll be focusing on.

2 of the cookies are peanut butter, and there's 10 cookies total.

As a fraction, the peanut butter cookies are represented as:

2/10.

2/10 represents 2 peanut butter cookies out of 10 cookies altogether.

<u>Simplify:</u>

2/10 can be simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by 2:

Quotient: 1/5.

1/5 is your answer.

Solve for x 14 x square+7x-6
irina [24]

Answer:

x=0.450765 or x=−0.950765

Step-by-step explanation:

14x² + 7x - 6

→ Find the product, sum and factors

Product = -6

Sum = 7

Factors = No factors

→ Since there are no factors utilise the quadratic formula

\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

→ List the values of a, b and c

a = 14

b = 7

c= -6

→ Substitute into the formula

\frac{-7+-\sqrt{7^{2}-4*14*-6} }{2*14}

→ Simplify

x=0.450765 or x=−0.950765

Grandpa schmidt is 75 years old. this is 9 years less than seven times the age of junior schmidt. how old is junior
Ad libitum [116K]
Grandpa's age is 75 years
Seven times the age of junior = age of grandpa + 9 jears = 75 + 9 = 84 years
Hence, the age of junior will be 84 / 7 = 12 years. (Since 84 is seven times his age, you have to devide by seven).
--> Junior is 12 years old.

I hope I've been helpful, MarkV
