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.

Given the equation −4Square root of x minus 3 = 12, solve for x and identify if it is an extraneous solution.
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

There is no solution for the given radical equation.

x = 225/16 is an extraneous solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is  

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

Squaring both sides

Divide both sides by 16

Substituting back the value of x in original equation to check the extraneous solution.

 

Since -18≠ 12. Hence, the value of x does not satisfy the equation.

Therefore, x = 225/16 is an extraneous solution.

Calculating area of rectangle
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Area = 216.108cm^2 --- You

Area = 216.940cm^2 --- Another student

Reason: Because there is a variation in the given dimensions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Your measurement

Length = 20.70cm; Width =10.44cm

Another students'

Length = 20.74cm; Width =10.46cm

Solving (a): The area

Area is calculated as:

Area = Length * Width

For you

Area = 20.70cm * 10.44cm

Area = 216.108cm^2

For the other student

Area = 20.74cm * 10.46cm

Area = 216.940cm^2

Solving (b): Reason for the variation in the areas

The given measurements are estimates of the dimensions of the rectangle.

Since there is a variation in the estimates, there will be some level of variation in the calculated area.
