a store has apples on sale for 3.00 for 2 pounds. how many pounds of apples can you buy for $9. if an apple is approximately 5 ounces how many apples can you buy for $9. explain your reasoning

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: If two pounds of apples cost $3.00 you can buy 6 pounds for $9.
3÷2 = 1.5, so you can buy 1 lb of apples for $1.50
9 ÷ 1.5 = 6, so you can buy 6 lbs of apples for $9
There are 16 ounces in a pound, so  6 pounds is equal to 96 ounces (6*16)
96 ÷ 5 is 19.2
You cant buy 0.2 apples, so 19.2 must be rounded down to 19 apples

You can buy 19 apples for nine dollars.
Answer 2
Answer: 16oz in a pound.
you can only buy 6lbs.
1lbs of apples would be 3 with one Oz remaining.
6lbs of apples would have 6oz remaining. so that'd be an extra apple.
6lbs of apples would be 18 apples.
18+1=19
19 apples

Question 6

x² - 16 = 0
x² = 16
x² = √16
x = 4 or -4

Question 7

x²  + 3x - 54 = 0
Factorizing

Find two numbers that add to make 3x and multiply to make 54
Write out the factor of -54 in pairs
1, -54
-1, 54
2, -27
-2, 27
3, -18
-3, 18
4, -16
-4, 16
6, -9
-6, 9
Then find the pair that, when added = +3 (in bold)
-6 + 9 = 3

x² + 9 - 6x - 54 = 0
x(x + 9)      -6(x + 9)

Use the (x + 9) and the coefficient of these brackets to make double brackets.
(x+9)(x-6) = 0

If the product of two terms =0, at least one must equal 0

x + 9 = 0
x = -9

x - 6 = 0
x = 6

x = -9 or 6


Question 8

2x² -11x - 6 = 0

First, multiply the coefficient of x² by the value of c (the number on its own)2 x -6 = 12

This time, find factors of -12 that equal -11
1, -12
-1, 12
2, -6
-2, 6
3, -4
-3, 4
The pair is in bold
1 + -12 = -11

2x² -12x + x - 6
Split down the middle and factorise in singe brackets
2x(x - 6)        1(x - 6)
Now use the brackets pre-made (x - 6) and put together what is in front of them (2x +1)
(2x + 1)(x - 6)

 If the product of two or more terms = 0, at least 1 must equal 0
2x + 1 = 0
2x = -1
2x/2 = x       -1/2 = -0.5

x - 6 = 0
x = 6

x = -0.5 or 6

Question #6:
They expect you to remember that the difference
of two squares can be factored as 

   (the sum of the squared numbers) times (their difference).

So   [ x² - 16 = 0 ]  can be written as  (x + 4) (x - 4) = 0 .

Now, a rule that you've used hundreds of times before
and you'll use thousands of times again: 
If the equation says that the product of two things is zero,
then the equation is true if EITHER of them is zero.

So ...  
(x+4) = 0 gives you one solution,
and (x-4)=0 gives you the other solution.

Question #7:

Factor the left side of the equation.

       (x + 9) (x - 6) = 0 .

Now, use a rule that you heard somewhere VERY recently:
If the equation says that the product of two things is zero,
then the equation is true if EITHER of them is zero.

So ...
(x + 9) = 0 gives you one solution, and
(x - 6) gives you the other one.
_______________________________________

Question #8:

Factor the left side of the equation:

           (2x + 1) (x - 6) = 0

Now use the golden rule that you've memorized by now:
If the equation says that the product of two things is zero,
then the equation is true if EITHER of them is zero.

So ...
(2x + 1) = 0 gives you one solution,
and (x - 6) = 0 gives you the other one.

In independent variable would be the hours studied, because it doesn't depend any anything. The dependent variable would be the test scores, as they all tie into each other.
