Diana is painting statues.She has 7/8 of a gallon remaining.Each statue requires 1/16 of a gallon of paint. How many statues can she paint? -Explain

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

we know that

Each statue requires $1/16$ of a gallon of paint

by proportion

Find how many statues can she paint with $7/8$ of a gallon of paint

$(1)/((1/16)) (statue)/(gallons) =(x)/((7/8)) (statue)/(gallons) \n \n x=((7/8))/((1/16)) \n \nx=7*16/8 \n \nx=14\ statues$

therefore

the answer is

$14\ statues$

Answer 2

Answer: 7/8 is equal to 14/16; so if one statue requires 1/16 gal. of paint, she has enough to paint 14 statues.

X^2+x=2?? how would i solve this??

Answers

x^2+x=2
first set to zero
x^2+x=2
subtract 2 from both sides
x^2+x-2=0
factor because if you have
x times y=0 then assume x and/or y=0 so

factor x^2+1x-2
to factor you find what 2 number add to 1 and multiply to get -2
the numbers are -1 and 2 so
it factors out to
(x-1)(x+2)=0
assume each is zero
x-1=0
add 1 to both sides
x=1

x+2=0
subtract 2 from both sides
x=-2

x=1 or -2

x²+x=2
x²+x-2=0
x= $(-1+- √(1-4*1*(-2)) )/(2) = (-1+- √(9) )/(2)= (-1+-3)/(2)$ x₁=-2 x₂=1
Answer: x₁=-2 x₂=1
