Hey there!

1/8(p + 24) = 9

1/8(p) + 1/8(24) = 9

1/8p + 3 = 9

SUBTRACT 3 to BOTH SIDES

1/8p + 3 - 3 = 9 - 3

CANCEL out: 3 - 3 because it gives 0

KEEP: 9 - 3 because it help solve for the p-value.

NEW EQUATION: 1/8p = 9 - 3
SIMPLIFY IT!

1/8p = 6

MULTIPLY 8 to BOTH SIDES

1/8p * 8 = 6 * 8

CANCEL out: 1/8 * 8 because it gives 1

KEEP: 6 * 8 because it gives the p-value.

NEW EQUATION: p = 6 * 8

SIMPLIFY IT!

p = 48

Therefore, your answer is: p = 48

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

Explanation:

Students that takes course one or both courses.

20 + 25 = 45

Students that take course. Not including both courses students.

45 - 8 = 37

Students that doesn’t take course.

40 - 37 = 3

Find the length of the chord made by 3x2 - y2 = 3 and y + x – 5 = 0.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

The correct answer is "9√2 units".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are:

⇒ $3x^2-y^2=3$ ...(equation 1)

⇒ $y+x-5=0$ ...(equation 2)

According to the 2nd equation, we get

⇒ $y+x-5=0$

⇒ $y=5-x$

On substituting the value of "y" in the 1st equation, we get

⇒ $3x^2-y^2=3$

$3x^2-(5-x)^2=3$

$3x^2-(25+x^2-10x)=3$

$2x^2+10x-28=0$

On taking common, we get

$x^2+5x-14=0$

On applying factorization, we get

$x^2+7x-2x-14=0$

$x(x+7)-2(x+7)=0$

$(x+7)(x-2)=0$

$x+7=0$

$x=-7$

or,

$x-2=0$

$x=2$

Now,

The points are:

(-7, 12) = (x₁, y₁)

(2, 3) = (x₂, y₂)

By using the distance formula, the length of chord will be:

= $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

On substituting the values in the above formula, we get

= $\sqrt{(2-(-7))^2+(3-12)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(9)^2+(-9)^2}$

= $\sqrt{81+81}$

= $9 \sqrt{2}$ units

Sarah is making 4 batches of granola bars. She adds 7/8 cup peanuts. Her measuring cup holds 1/8 cup. How many times must Sarah

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Sarah is making 4 batches of granola bars. She needs 7/8 cup peanuts to each batch and her measuring cup holds 1/8 cup.

Thus, if one cup holds then to make , Sarah will have to measure = 7 times for one batch of granola bars.

Therefore, for making 4 batches of granola bars, Sarah must measure 1/8 cup peanuts 7 x 4=28 times.Step-by-step explanation:
