When you plug the equation into a graphing calculator the x-intercept is -5
Or you can set the equation equal to 0 and solve for x.
So 16=heads
18=tails
after you add some tails
18+x
ratio of heads to tails is 1:1.5
heads=16, didn't change
tails=18+x
so
1:1.5=16:18+x
fractionify
1/1.5=16/(18+x)
1/1.5=2/3
2/3=16/(18+x)
mutiply both sides by (3)(18+x)
2(18+x)=3(16)
36+2x=48
subtract 36 from both sides
2x=12
divide 2
x=6
6 tails added
total=heads+tails
heads=16
tails=18+6=24
total=16+24
total=40
6 tails added
40 total coins
7x (13x^2 - 8) = 91x^3 - 56x
9 student because if each row holds nine then the last row must hold nine
Answer:
2 3/8 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
11/4 - 3/8
We will find the LCM of 4 and 8, which is 8.
We will do 11/4*8, which 8/4 = 2 and 2*11 = 22
Then we will do 3/8*8 = 8/8 = 1 = 3*1 = 3
So the answer will be <u>22-3 </u> = 19
8 = 8
Mixed Fraction = 2 3/8
