QUICK!! 18x^2+21x-60=0 pls give me the steps as well

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x1 = - \frac{5}{2} [/tex]

[tex]x2 = \frac{4}{3} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]18 {x}^{2} + 21x - 60 = 0[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

[tex]6 {x}^{2} + 7x - 20 = 0[/tex]

Write 7x as a difference

[tex]6 {x}^{2} + 15x - 8x - 20 = 0[/tex]

Factor out 3x from the expression

[tex]3x(2x + 5) - 8x - 20 = 0[/tex]

Factor out -4 from the expression

[tex]3x(2x + 5) - 4(2x + 5) = 0[/tex]

Factor out 2x + 5 from the expression

[tex](2x + 5)(3x - 4) = 0[/tex]

When the product of factors equals 0 , at least one factor is 0

[tex]2x + 5 = 0[/tex]

[tex]3x - 4 = 0[/tex]

Solve the equation for X

[tex]2x + 5 = 0[/tex]

Move constant to R.H.S and change its sign

[tex]2x = 0 - 5[/tex]

Calculate the difference

[tex]2x = - 5[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

[tex] \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{ - 5}{2} [/tex]

Calculate

[tex]x 1= - \frac{5}{2} [/tex]

Again,

[tex]3x - 4 = 0[/tex]

Move constant to RHS and change its sign

[tex]3x = 0 + 4[/tex]

Calculate the sum

[tex]3x = 4[/tex]

divide both sides of the equation by 3

[tex] \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{4}{3} [/tex]

Calculate

[tex]x 2= \frac{4}{3} [/tex]

Hope this helps..

Step-by-step explanation:

Through completing the square, we get:

x^2 + 5x + (5/2)^2 - (5/2)^2 - 2 = 0, or

(x + 5/2)^2 - 25/4 - 2 = 0.

This simplifies to

(x + 5/2)^2 = 33/4

Taking the square root of both sides yields:

x + 5/2 = ±√(33/4), which can be solved explicityl for x:

a. 77 – 11b)
b. (15 + 11b 1/7
c. 7 ( 15 – 11b )
d. (15 – 11b)

Answers

Answer:

a = (15-11b)/7

Step-by-step explanation:

19a + 11b = 12a + 15

Subtract 12a from each side

19a-12a + 11b = 12a-12a + 15

7a +11b = 15

Subtract 11b from each side

7a+11b-11b = 15 -11b

7a = 15-11b

Divide by 7

7a/7 = (15-11b)/7

a = (15-11b)/7

The height of the trunk is 26 inches the length of the trunk is 50 inches. The tv is 54 inches wide. And 96 inches in height Use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the length of the diagonal of the trunk.

Answers

Answer:

The length of the diagonal of the trunk is 56.356011 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

height of the trunk= 26 inches

length of the trunk= 50 inches

According to the Pythagorean theorem, to calculate the length of the diagonal of the trunk we would have to calculate the following formula:

length of the diagonal of the trunk=√(height of the trunk∧2+length of the trunk∧2)

Therefore, length of the diagonal of the trunk=√(26∧2+50∧2)

length of the diagonal of the trunk=√3176

length of the diagonal of the trunk=56.356011

The length of the diagonal of the trunk is 56.356011 inches

One day the temperature was 72°F. That night, the temperature was 44°F. What number represents the change in temperature?

Answers

Answer:

28°F

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the change in temperature by subtracting 44 from 72:

72 - 44 = 28

So, the change in temperature was 28°F

The answer would be 28° Fahrenheit

Reason being is when you would like to find the difference between 2 numbers, you take the larger one and subtract it by the smaller, thus giving you how far apart they are

In this case 72°-44°=28°

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4²+x²=20²

16+x²=400

384 = x²

x = 19.6 ft

Answer:

19.6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

The hypotenuse is 20 feet, and the bottom leg is 4 feet.

We also know that Pythagorean theorem is used when there is one missing side to a triangle.

[tex]a^{2}[/tex] + [tex]b^{2}[/tex] = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]

Substitute in a for 4 and c for 20. The hypotenuse is always the variable c.

4^2 + b^2 = 20^2

16 + b^2 = 400

b^2=384

Graph the linear function whose equation is
y - 2 = - * (x + 1) by following these steps:

Answers

Answer:

The slope is -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

With this its easier to get all of the x's on one side.

distribute the -2/3 to the x and 1. Also add a 2 on each side.

Thats leaves you with y=-2/3x+4/3

You than want to make a chart of x's and y's so you know what this graph looks like

x|y

-3|(10/3)

-2|(8/3)

-1|2

0|(4/3)

1|(2/3)

2|0

3|(-2/3)

To find the slope, it's (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

So in this case, (0-2)/(2+1)

The slope is (-2/3)

Answer:

Slope = -2/3

To most closely estimate the difference below, would you round the numbers to the nearest ten thousand, the nearest thousand, or the nearest hundred? Explain. 62,980 - 49,625 =?

Answers

Answer:

To most closely estimate the difference, I would round 62,980 to the nearest thousand, so it will be 63,000. That is because when rounding, 63,000 is large enough so that adding will be easy, and 62,980 is relatively close to 63,000.

I would round 49,625 to the nearest thousand, since it would make the subtraction easier and 49,625 is only 375 units away from 50,000.

63,000 - 50,000 = about 13,000.

The monthly salary of a salesman of a departmental store is Rs 12,500 and an additional payment of 0.5 % on the total monthly sale is provided as commission.

i) Calculate his total income in a month if he makes a total sale of Rs 7,20,000 in that month.

ii) What should be his total sale in the next month so that he can receive a total income of Rs 20,000 in the month?​

Answers

Answer:

i. [tex]Total\ Income = Rs\ 16,100[/tex]

ii. [tex]Monthly\ Sales = Rs\ 1,500,000[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Salary = Rs\ 12,500[/tex]

Commission = 0.5% of Monthly Sales

Calculating his total income is total sales is  Rs 720,000

[tex]Total\ Income = Salary + Commission[/tex]

Substitute (0.5% of Monthly Sales) for Commission

[tex]Total\ Income = Salary + (0.5\%\ of\ Monthly\ Sales)[/tex]

Substitute Rs 720,000 for Monthly Sales and Rs 12,500 for Salary

[tex]Total\ Income = Rs\ 12,500 + 0.5\%\ of\ Rs\ 720,000[/tex]

[tex]Total\ Income = Rs\ 12,500 + 0.5\%\ * Rs\ 720,000[/tex]

Convert % to decimal

[tex]Total\ Income = Rs\ 12,500 + 0.005\ * Rs\ 720,000[/tex]

[tex]Total\ Income = Rs\ 12,500 + Rs\ 3,600[/tex]

[tex]Total\ Income = Rs\ 16,100[/tex]

Calculating his total sales if total income = Rs 20,000

Recall that;

[tex]Total\ Income = Salary + Commission[/tex]

Substitute Rs 20,000 for Total Income; Rs 12,500 for Salary and (0.5% of Monthly Sales) for Commission

[tex]Rs\ 20,000 = Rs\ 12,500 + 0.5\%\ of\ Monthly\ Sales[/tex]

Subtract Rs 12,500 from both sides

[tex]Rs\ 20,000 - Rs\ 12,500 = Rs\ 12,500 - Rs\ 12,500 + 0.5\%\ of\ Monthly\ Sales[/tex]

[tex]Rs\ 7,500 = 0.5\%\ of\ Monthly\ Sales[/tex]

[tex]Rs\ 7,500 = 0.5\%\ *\ Monthly\ Sales[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.5%

[tex]\frac{Rs\ 7,500}{0.5\%} = \frac{0.5\%\ *\ Monthly\ Sales}{0.5\%}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{Rs\ 7,500}{0.5\%} = Monthly\ Sales[/tex]

Convert % to decimal

[tex]\frac{Rs\ 7,500}{0.5\%} = Monthly\ Sales[/tex]

[tex]\frac{Rs\ 7,500}{0.005} = Monthly\ Sales[/tex]

[tex]Rs\ 1,500,000 = Monthly\ Sales[/tex]

[tex]Monthly\ Sales = Rs\ 1,500,000[/tex]

Option B is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the distance between the points A and B

A ( 3 , - 1 ) → ( x1 , y1 )

B ( 9 , - 5 )→ ( x2 , y2 )

Distance = [tex] \sqrt{ {(x2 - x1)}^{2} + {(y2 - y1)}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{ {(9 - 3)}^{2} + {( - 5 - ( - 1)}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{ {(9 - 3)}^{2} + {( - 5 + 1))}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{ {6}^{2} +( - 4) ^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{36 + 16} [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{52} [/tex]

[tex] = 2 \sqrt{13} [/tex]

Finding the distance between the points B and C

B ( 9 , - 5 ) → ( x1 , y1 )

C ( 16 , - 2 )→ ( x2 , y2 )

Distance = [tex] \sqrt{ {(x2 - x1)}^{2} + {(y2 - y1)}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{ {(16 - 9)}^{2} + { (- 2 - ( - 5))}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{ {(16 - 9)}^{2} + { ( - 2 + 5)}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{ {7}^{2} + {(3)}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{49 + 9} [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{58} [/tex] units

Finding the distance between the points A and C

A ( 3 , - 1 )→ ( x1 , y1 )

C ( 16 , - 2 )→ ( x2 , y2 )

Distance = [tex] \sqrt{ {(x2 - x1)}^{2} + {(y2 - y1)}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{ {(16 - 3)}^{2} + {( - 2 - ( - 1))}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{ {(16 - 3)}^{2} + ( - 2 + 1) ^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{ {13}^{2} + ( { - 1)}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{169 + 1} [/tex]

[tex] = \sqrt{170} [/tex] units

Now, let's find the perimeter:

Perimeter = AB + BC + AC

plug the values

[tex] = 2 \sqrt{13} + \sqrt{58} + \sqrt{170} [/tex]

Overall, David spends 4.504.504, point, 50 dollars on rice. How many servings can David make with the current amount of spice he has

Answers

Answer:

  8 servings

Step-by-step explanation:

At the ratio of 15:1, the 75 grams of rice in one serving will require 75/15 = 5 g of spice. David's inventory of 40 g of spice is enough for ...

  40 g/(5 g/serving) = 8 servings

Only 8 servings can be made with the available spice.

Rice to spice ratio = 15 : 1

Number of grams per serving = 75 grams

Grams of spice available = 40 grams

Grams of rice, r required for available spice :

15 grams of rice = 1 gram of spice

r grams of rice = 40 grams of spice

Cross multiply :

r = (40 × 15)

r = 600 grams

The grams of rice which can go with the available spice :

Number of servings = grams of rice / grams per serving

Number of serving = 600 grams / 75 grams

Number of grams per serving = 8

Hence, The number of servings which can be made with the available spice is 8 servings

Answers

Answer:

Your answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

By using substitution method, we obtained the solution of equations (3, 3).

The given linear system of equations are 6x+3y=27 and 5x+2y=21.

What is a linear system of equations?

A system of linear equations consists of two or more equations made up of two or more variables such that all equations in the system are considered simultaneously. The solution to a system of linear equations in two variables is any ordered pair that satisfies each equation independently.

Using substitution method we can solve given equations

6x+3y=27 can be written as 2x+y=9 ----------(I)

5x+2y=21 ----------(II)

From equation (I), we have y=9-2x

Substitute y=9-2x in equation (II), we get

5x+2(9-2x)=21

⇒ 5x+18-4x=21

⇒ x=21-18

⇒ x=3

Substitute x=3 in equation (I), we get

2(3)+y=9

⇒ y=3

Therefore, by using substitution method, we obtained the solution of equations (3, 3).

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> time of the first process in minutes

y -----> time of the second process in minutes

we know that

The time of the first process multiplied by 4 (because is repeated 4 times) plus the time of the second process multiplied by 1 (because is repeated only once) must be less than or equal to 3 minutes

so

The inequality that represent this situation is

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area below the solid line

The equation of the solid line is

The y-intercept of the solid line is the point (0,3)

The x-intercept of the solid line is the point (0.75,0)

The slope of the solid line is negative m=-4

using a graphing tool

The solution is the shaded area

The graph in the attached figure

Remember that the time cannot be a negative number

There are 20 players on a soccer team. From them, a captain and an alternate captain have to be chosen. How many possibilities are there?

Answers

Answer:

190 possibilities.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is called 20 choose 2, given by the formula for combinations

C(20,2) = 20! / (2! (20-2)!) = 190

alternatively, we can reason it this way:

there are 20 choices to choose a captain and 19 choices for an alternate captain for a total of 380 ways.

However, there are 20 choices to choose an alternate captain and 19 choices for a captain for a total of 380 ways.

Since we are essentially double counting every choice of the posts, we need to divide 380 by 2 to get 190 ways.
