Student Cookies
Cook E. Doe School had a bake sale. At the sale, a package of 36 cookies cost $12.
Four students decided to put their money together and buy one package. Kayden
contributed $2, Kayah contributed $3, Kayla contributed $4, and Michelle
contributed $3. Everyone wants to be fair when dividing up the package.
How many cookies should each person get based on how much each paid?

The correct answer is Kayden- 6 cookies; Kayah-9 cookies; Michelle-9 cookies and Kayla- 12 cookies

Step-by-step explanation: There are 36 cookies. Kayden gives $2-  or pays for 1/6 of the cookies (2/12= 1/6) The decimal for 1/6 is 0.16, so 36 x 0.16= 5.88 rounded up to 6 cookies. Kayah contributed $ 3- or pays for  1/4 of the cookies. (3/12= 1/4) The decimal for 1/4 is 0.25, so 36 x 0.25= 9, so Kayah and Michelle each get 9 cookies. Kayla gives $4- or pays for 1/3 of the cookies (4/12= 1/3) The decimal for 1/3 is 0.33, so 36 x 0.33= 11.88 rounded to 12.

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   x (x+6)^2, choice b

discussion:

factor x out of the equation:

x^3 + 12x^2 + 36x = x (x^2 + 12x + 36).

note that 6+6 = 12 and 6*6 = 36 so the above factors into:

x (x+6)^2

which is choice b

find the vertical and horizontal asymptotes of the function f x = 5 x − 1 . to find the vertical asymptote, equate the denominator to zero and solve for . since the degree of the polynomial in the numerator is less than that of the denominator, the horizontal asymptote is .
