The quotient is 45 1/4 what is the divisor

1 answer:

4 0

<span>1. </span><span>Well if the quotient is 45 ¼, the divisor will depends on the dividend.
Since the dividend is not given, there it would be hard for us to tell what is the divisor.
Because we only have the quotient, there are a lot of answers then if the dividend is not given.
it can be that the divisor is 2 and the dividend is 90 ½ to be able to get 45 ¼ as an answer.
it’s hard to tell without identifying the dividend.</span>

Answer:

Carlos and Pamela drove 120 miles on the first day, 240 miles on the second day, and 290 miles on the third day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of miles driven on the first day.

Then they drove twice as many miles, or 2x on the second day

and 50 miles more than the second day's, so 2x + 50

The total is 650 across all three days, so we'll take the sum.

x + 2x + (2x + 50) = 650

Combine like terms on the left

5x + 50 = 650

Subtract 50 on both sides

5x = 600

Divide by 5 on both sides

x = 120

Check work:

120 + 2(120) + 2(120) + 50 = 650

120 + 240 + 240 + 50 = 650

600 + 50 = 650

650 = 650

So they drove 120 miles on the first day

2*120 = 240 miles on the second day

and 2*120 + 50 = 240 + 50 = 290 miles on the third day

How does graphing linear inequalities differ from graphing linear equations?

Ivan

Explanation:

When the inequality symbol is replaced by an equal sign, the resulting linear equation is the boundary of the solution space of the inequality. Whether that boundary is included in the solution region or not depends on the inequality symbol.

The boundary line is included if the symbol includes the "or equal to" condition (≤ or ≥). An included boundary line is graphed as a solid line.

When the inequality symbol does not include the "or equal to" condition (< or >), the boundary line is not included in the solution space, and it is graphed as a dashed line.

Once the boundary line is graphed, the half-plane that makes up the solution space is shaded. The shaded half-plane will be to the right or above the boundary line if the inequality can be structured to be of one of these forms:

x > ... or x ≥ ... ⇒ shading is to the right of the boundary
y > ... or y ≥ ... ⇒ shading is above the boundary

Otherwise, the shaded solution space will be below or to the left of the boundary line.

_____

Just as a system of linear equations may have no solution, so that may be the case for inequalities. If the boundary lines are parallel and the solution spaces do not overlap, then there is no solution.

_____

The attached graph shows an example of graphed inequalities. The solutions for this system are in the doubly-shaded area to the left of the point where the lines intersect. We have purposely shown both kinds of inequalities (one "or equal to" and one not) with shading both above and below the boundary lines.
