PLEASE HELP ASAP A cell phone company tests 75 cell phones and finds that 3 of them have defects. Out of 450 cell phones, how many would you expect to have defects?
You can predict that __ of the cell phones will have defects.

Out of 450 phones 18 of them will have a defect.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that out of 75 phones 3 of them will have a defect, this means that we are able to calculate how many defects there will be from 450 phones. You can do this by first dividing 450 by 75, this gives you 6. This means that 75 will go into 450 6 times.

From this we are able to work out the number that will have defects. This is because we know that 75 goes into 450 6 times and that for each 75 phones there will be 3 defects. So to work out the number of phones out of 450 that would be defects you would simply multiply 3 by 6, this gives you 18. This shows that out of 450 phones 18 of them will have a defect.

1) Divide 450 by 75.

2) Multiply 6 by 3.

x= -3 and

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

where a is the cube root of .

here   this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

.

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

this cubic has two complex roots.
