Answer:

40% of the total marbles are green.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage: Green marbles/Total marbles

=> 8/5 + 4 + 8 + 3
=> 8/20

Percentage formula: $\frac{a}{b} (100)$

=> 8/20 x 100
=> 8 x 5
=> 40

Hence, 40% of the total marbles are green.

What are the solutions to the equation x² + 16x + 14 = 0?

poizon [28]

Answer:

-8+5√2 and -8-5√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression x² + 16x + 14 = 0

USing the general formulas

x = -16±√16²-4(14)/2

x = -16±√256-56/2

x = -16±√200/2

x = -16±10√2/2

x = -8±5√2

Hence the required solutions are -8+5√2 and -8-5√2

Firstly, I noticed that there are fractions, decimals, and percents. I will change everything to percents, so it’s more easy for me to compare each of them.

List 1. 140%, 25%, 14%. This is from greatest to least, not least to greatest.
List 2. 25%, 14%, 14%. This is not from least to greatest, either.
List 3. 14%, 25%, 140%. This is from least to greatest.
List 4. 140%, 14%, 25%. This is not from least to greatest.

List 3 is from least to greatest. I got this answer by converting all of the fractions and decimals to percentages.
