Answer:
Solution
p = {-3, 1}
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
p2 + 2p + -3 = 0
Reorder the terms:
-3 + 2p + p2 = 0
Solving
-3 + 2p + p2 = 0
Solving for variable 'p'.
Factor a trinomial.
(-3 + -1p)(1 + -1p) = 0
Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(-3 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying
-3 + -1p = 0
Solving
-3 + -1p = 0
Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '3' to each side of the equation.
-3 + 3 + -1p = 0 + 3
Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
0 + -1p = 0 + 3
-1p = 0 + 3
Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3
-1p = 3
Divide each side by '-1'.
p = -3
Simplifying
p = -3
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(1 + -1p)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying
1 + -1p = 0
Solving
1 + -1p = 0
Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + -1p = 0 + -1
Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + -1p = 0 + -1
-1p = 0 + -1
Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
-1p = -1
Divide each side by '-1'.
p = 1
Simplifying
p = 1
Solution
p = {-3, 1}
Let M represent the cost of a whiteboard marker.
10(3M + $2.75) = $177.50
3M + $2.75 = $17.75
3M = $15
M = $5
Hence, each whiteboard marker cost $5.
Answer:
She will need to use 377 inches of glitter tape.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the circumference of the circle by using the radius. The circumference of each clock is 37.7 inches. Multiply that by 10, because there are 10 clocks. That will give you your answer is 377 inches!
