Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
A difference of two squares is factored as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)
(g)
1 - 81y²
= 1² - (9y)²
= (1 - 9y)(1 + 9y)
(j)
64x² - 25y²
= (8x)² - (5y)²
= (8x - 5y)(8x + 5y)
Answer:
Catherine's sister ate 2/15 gallons of the ice cream.
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be the amount of ice cream that Catherine's sister ate, in gallons.
- Original amount: 1 gallon.
- What Catherine ate: gallons.
- What Catherine's sister ate is assumed to be gallons.
- What's left: gallons.
Consider the relationship:
.
That is:
.
Add to both sides of this equation:
Substract from both sides:
.
Convert the denominator of all three numbers on the left-hand side to
.
.
In other words, Catherine's sister ate gallons of the ice cream.
Answer:
4 pound
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question :
2 gallons of water = 8 pound bag
Number of pound bag per gallon of water ;
Let the number of pound = x
Using cross multiplication, we'll have :
2 gallons = 8 pounds
1 gallon = x pounds
Cross multiply
2x = 8
x = 8 /2
x = 4
Hence, 1 gallon of water mixes 4 pound bag of concrete.
Your solution would be -1.95<=x . btw couldn’t do the less than or equal to so i put that.
Answer:
(0.0147, 4.0147) and (-4.04, 0.04)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller number be x
Let the larger number be y
If a positive integer is 4 less than another, then;
x = y - 4 ...1
If 3 times the reciprocal of the smaller integer is subtracted from the reciprocal of the larger integer and result is -67, then;
1/y - 3(1/x) = -67
1/y -3/x = -67 ...2
Substitute 1 into 2
1/y - 3/y-4 = -67
y-4-3y/y(y-4) = -67
-4-2y = -67(y^2-4y)
- 4-2y = -67y^2 +268y
-67y^2 +268y+2y + 4 = 0
-67y^2 +270y + 4 =0
67y^2 -270y - 4 = 0
Factorize
-270±√270² - 4(-4)(67)/2(67)
= -270±√72,900+1072/134
= -270±271.97/134
= -270 -271.97/134 and -270 +271.97/134
= -541.97/134 and 1.97/134
x = 0.0147 and -4.04
y = x+4
y = 0.0147+4
y = 4.0147
If x = -4.04
y = -4.04 + 4
y = 0.04
Hence the pair of values are (0.0147, 4.0147) and (-4.04, 0.04)
