Pablo, Sofia, and Mia got some candy eggs at a party. Pablo had three times as many eggs as Sofia, and Sofia had twice as many eggs as Mia. Pablo decides to give some of his eggs to Sofia and Mia so that all three will have the same number of eggs. What fraction of his eggs should Pablo give to Sofia?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Pablo : 3(2x) = 6x
Sofia : 2x
Mia : x

Assuming x = 10
Mia : x = 10
Sofia : 2x = 2(10) = 20
Pablo : 3(2x) = 3(20) = 60

10 + 20 + 60 = 90
90/3 = 30 candy eggs per person

Pablo: 60 x 1/2 = 30
Sophia: 30-20 = 10 : 10
Mia : 30 - 10 = 20 : 20

Ratio of eggs given to sophia from pablo's set = 10/60 = 1/6
Ratio of eggs given to mia from pablo's set = 20/60 = 2/6 = 1/3

Josiah and his friends are going to the movies. Each ticket costs $10, and popcorn is $5 a bag. There is a $3 service fee for the entire purchase. He has $75. If he buys 4 tickets, what is the maximum number of bags of popcorn he can buy

Answers

Make sure you check this because i do make mistakes.

10 x 4 = 40

75 - 40 = 35

So josiah has 35 dollars to spend for things other than tickets.

35 - 3 = 32 (for the service fee)

So josiah has 32 dollars to spend on popcorn

32/5 = 6.4 but you cant have half a bag of popcorn so

6 bags

Prove that 2x^2+x+8>0 for all real values of x.

Answers

$y = 2x^2 + x + 8$ is a polynomial of even degree, with a positive $x^2$ coefficient, meaning that
- it will have exactly one turning point
- that turning point will be a minimum

So, if the y-coordinate of the turning point is positive, then this polynomial will be positive for all real values of x.

At a turning point, the gradient of y will be equal to 0. The gradient of y is given by
$\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = 4x + 1$ .

To find the turning point, set this equal to 0 and solve for x:
$4x + 1 = 0 \implies x = -(1)/(4)$ .

Substituting this value into the equation gives
$y = 2(-(1)/(4))^2 + (-(1)/(4)) + 8 = (1)/(4) - (1)/(4) + 8 = 8 \ \textgreater \ 0$ .

Since the minimum point of the equation is greater than 0, the equation will be greater than 0 for all real values of x.
