the price of gravel is $24 for every 3/8 ton. Kate wants to know the price of 2 tons of gravel. at that rate, what is the price of 2 tons of gravel

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is on rate.

firstly we have to find the rate at which 1 ton is sold

given that 3/8 ton is sold for $24

hence 1 ton will be sold for X

cross multiply

X = 24/3/8

inverse the denominator and multiply the result with the numerator we have

X= 24*8/3

X= $64

Now having found out that 1 ton cost $64

2 tons will cost =64*2

                         = $128

Therefore at this rate two tons will cost $128

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.
