Answer:

47 rounds and Eve wins.

Step-by-step explanation:

If read right, the highest player, (player with the most tokens) has to lose 3 tokens each round, so starting off with Evelyn, 17 - 3 = 14, and the other two each have +1 added to them, so, E=14, A=17 V=16, now subtract three from A (Amelia) and don't forget that one token is always being discarded each round. So the toal number of tokens at the start was 48, (17 + 16 + 15) so right now the total tokens should be 47, which it is. now starting the second round, A gives up 3 tokens so, 17 -3, again equals 14 and each of the two other players get one token, so E=15, A=14 V=17. Now you know the general trend, so we can figure this out seeing that after each round the number of tokens decrease by one, so there will be a round till all tokens are out except one, so there will be 47 rounds and since E started with the highest number they will win.

11. Let f(x) = 2x² + 7x + 5
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

(x+1)(2x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x² + 7x + 5

Factor the expression by grouping. First, the expression needs to be rewritten as 2x²+ax+bx+5. To find a and b, set up a system to be solved.

a+b=7

ab=2×5=10

Since ab is positive, a and b have the same sign. Since a+b is positive, a and b are both positive. List all such integer pairs that give product 10.

1,10

2,5

Calculate the sum for each pair.

1+10=11

2+5=7

The solution is the pair that gives sum 7.

a=2

b=5

2x²+7x+5 as (2x²+2x)+(5x+5).

(2x²+2x)+(5x+5)

Factor out 2x in the first and 5 in the second group.

2x(x+1)+5(x+1)

Factor out common term x+1 by using distributive property.

(x+1)(2x+5)

How much pure acid should be mixed with 6 gallons of a 50% acid solution in order to get a 70% acid​ solution?
Mashutka [201]
To help with thinking about this, we can say that the 6 gallons of 50% acid contains 3 gallons of pure acid and 3 gallons of filler. This would make the concentration 3/6, or 50%. Adding a gallon of pure acid would shift the concentration to 4/7, or 57.1%.

When the relationship becomes 70%, four gallons of pure acid have been added.

3+4 7
—— = — = 70%
6+4 10
