Answer:

  • Each friend will get 1/6 pounds of candy.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We know that:</u>

  • David buys 5/6 pounds of candy.
  • David splits it among his 5 friends.

<u>Now, we know that:</u>

  • 5/6 - (1/6 * 5) should be the equation.

<u>Now, we solve:</u>

  • 5/6 - (1/6 * 5)
  • = 5/6 - 5/6
  • = 0.

Each friend will get 1/6 pounds of candy.

Solve the following system of equations. What is one x-value of a solution? f(x)=x^(2)+7x-24 g(x)=-3x-40
Yuki888 [10]

One x- value of the solution is : -2 or -8

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An Equation is an algebraic statement that shows that two quantities are equal.

Analysis:

for one x-value of a solution, f(x) = g(x)

x^{2} + 7x -24 = -3x - 40

x^{2} +7x +3x -24 +40 = 0

x^{2} + 10x +16 = 0

x^{2} +8x +2x +16 = 0

x(x+8) +2(x+8) = 0

(x+2)(x+8) = 0

x = -2 or -8

In conclusion, the values of x are -2 or -8

What are the solutions of the system?
miskamm [114]
We have the following system of equations:
 y = -6x-6
 y = x2-5x-6
 Matching we have:
 x2-5x-6 = -6x-6
 Rewriting we have:
 x2-5x-6 + 6x + 6 = 0
 x2 + x = 0
 Rewriting:
 x (x + 1) = 0
 The solutions are:
 x = 0
 x = -1
 For x = 0
 y = -6 (0) -6 = 0-6 = -6
 y = -6
 For x = -1
 y = -6 (-1) -6 = 6-6 = 0
 y = 0
 The solutions are:
 (x, y) = (0, -6)
 (x, y) = (- 1, 0)
 Answer:
 
The solutions of the system are:
 (-1, 0) and (0, -6)

The Canadian labor force as of 2019 was 32.7 million. There were 30.9 million employed What the unemployment rate would be?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

The unemployment rate would be 5.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The Canadian labor force as of 2019 was 32.7 million.

There were 30.9 million employed

We need to find the unemployment rate.

Unemployed = labor force - employed

= 32.7 - 30.9

= 1.8 million

\text{unemployment rate}=\dfrac{\text{unemployed}}{\text{labor force}}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{1.8}{32.7}\times 100\\\\=5.5\%

So, the unemployment rate would be 5.5%.
