A piece of licorice is to be cut into 10 equal size pieces . If the length of the piece of licorice is 2/3 yard, how long will each piece of licorice be?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The first thing to do is turn this into an equation:
2/3 ÷ 10

10 as a fraction is 10/1
2/3 ÷ 10/1 =

Fractional division is just fractional multiplication after switching the numerator and the denominator of the second fraction:
2/3 X 10/1

Fractional multiplication is simply multiplying the numerators by each other, and the denominators by each other:
2 X 10 = 20
3 X 1 = 3

20/3

Each piece of liquorice will be 20/3 or 6 2/3 of a yard long.

Answer 2

The cubic binomial expression with a positive leading coefficient is 1+2x^3

How to determine the cubic binomial expression?

A cubic binomial expression has the following properties:

It has 2 terms
One of its variable term has a power of 3

This means that a cubic binomial expression is represented as:

ax^3 + b or b + ax^3

From the question, we understand that it has a positive leading coefficient.

This means that:

a > 0

From the list of options, we have:

1+2x^3

Hence, the cubic binomial expression with a positive leading coefficient is 1+2x^3

What value for c will make the expression a perfect square trinomial? x2 – 7x + c

Answers

Answer: 12.25

Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect square trinomial is written as $ax^2+2abx+b^2$ , where

first term $ax$ = square of first term of binomial

second term=2abx=twice the product of both terms of binomial.

and third term 'c'=square of last term of binomial

In the given polynomial , $x^2+7x+c$ , a=1

and 2ab = 7

When we put value of a =1, we get

$2(1)b=7\n\Rightarrow\ b=(7)/(2)$

Hence, in place of the question mark makes the given polynomial a perfect square trinomial = $b^2=((7)/(2)^2=12.25$

I assume the first part of that equation is x^2. -7/2= 3.5 ; 3.5^2=12.25 sooo it should end up as x^2-7x + 12.25. but I might be wrong.
