Answer 1

~quadratic equation

======================

2x² + 3x - 20 = 0

= a + b = 3

= ab = 2(-20) = -40

= a = -5

= b = 8

= (2x² - 5x) + (8x - 20)

= x(2x - 5) + 4(2x - 5)

= (2x - 5) (x + 4)

= Solution 1 : x = 5/2 ✔️

Solution 2 : x = -4 ✔️

~ nice to help you ^^

Answer 2

[tex]2x^2 +3x -20 =0\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{-3 \pm \sqrt{(-3)^2 - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot (-20)}}{2 \cdot 2}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{-3 \pm \sqrt{169}}{4}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{-3\pm 13} 4 \\\\\\\text{Hence} \\\\x = \dfrac{-3+ 13}{4} = \dfrac{10} 4 = \dfrac{5}2\\\\\text{Or}\\\\x= \dfrac{-3-13}4 = -\dfrac{16}4 =-4[/tex]

A rectangular garden is 20ft longer than it is wide. It’s area is 6300ft^2. What are its dimensions

Answers

Answer:

Length = 90 feet

Width = 70 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

    The area of a rectangle is found by finding the product of the length. Therefore, the following formula equation can be made:

[tex]A=lw[/tex]

    The problem tells us that the area of the garden is 6,300 square feet and that the length is 20 feet longer than the width. Therefore, our equation can be rewritten as such:

[tex]6300=(w+20)(w)~or~6300=w(w+20)[/tex]

Now that there are no longer two different variables, we can solve for w.

[tex]6300=w(w+20)\\\\6300=w^2+20w\\\\0=w^2+20w-6300[/tex]

    We are left with a trinomial so we'll use the quadratic formula to further solve for w.

[tex]w=\frac{-20\pm\sqrt{20^2-4(1)(-6300)} }{2(1)}\\\\w=\frac{-20\pm\sqrt{400+25200} }{2}\\\\w=\frac{-20\pm\sqrt{25600} }{2}\\\\w=\frac{-20\pm160}{2}\\\\\\w=70\\or\\w=-90[/tex]

    Since distance cannot be negative, w = -90 cannot be a solution for this problem. Therefore, the width of the rectangular garden is 70 feet.

    Now that the width has been found, we know the length is 20 feet longer than it. Therefore, the length is 90 feet.

The ratio of trees to shrubs is 5:2. How many shrubs are there for 30 trees?

Answers

Answer:

30:12

Step-by-step explanation:

The beginning ratio is 5:2, trees to shrubs.

For every five trees, there are two shrubs.

So here is how we are going to solve the problem, since we are trying to figure out the amount of shrubs for 30 trees, we are going to divide 30 by 5 then once we've found out the quotient, we are going to multiply the quotient by two to get our amount of shrubs.

30 ÷ 5 = 6

6(2)=12

To conclude, for 30 trees there are 12 shrubs.

Answer:

12 / 12

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM of 12 and 2 = 12

1 / 2

= ( 1 / 2 ) x ( 6 / 6 )

= ( 1 x 6 ) / ( 2 x 6 )

Pete worked 44 hours and 30 minutes on his new job. He makes $9.86 per hour. For each hour of overtime, he earns time and a half. How much will he earn for one week?

Answers

The question did not associate anything with the overtime so, I believe the answer is 416.24

:)

Answer:

$460.955 ≈ $460.96  

Step-by-step explanation:

A work week is 8 hours × 5 days = 40 hours per week.   Pete worked 44 hours and 30 minutes which is 44.5 hours.  This tells you that Pete worked 40 hours at regular paid and 4.5 hours of overtime at a rate is his amount per hour plus half of his amount per hour). So Pete earns $14.79 per hour for overtime rate  ($9.86 + $4.93 = $14.79) .

Earning for the week:  40 × $9.86 + 4.5 × $14.79

                                  = $394.40 + $66.555

                                  =  $460.955 ≈ $460.96

Jim wants to build a rectangular parking lot along a busy street but only has 1,800 feet of fencing available. If no fencing is required along the street, find the maximum area of the parking lot.

Answers

The largest area would be a square shape.

A square has 4 equal sides:

1800/4 = 450

Now because the street side doesn't have fencing, add that side length to one side of the fencing:

450 +450 = 900

Now the fence would have two widths of 450 feet and one length of 900 feet.

Area = length x width = 450 x 900 = 405,000 square feet.

Answer:

  y -5 = 7(x +2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Values for the slope and a point are given. That makes it convenient to use the point-slope form of the equation for a line:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

  y -5 = 7(x +2) . . . . . . line with slope 7 through point (-2, 5)

__

Sometimes, you want the slope-intercept form of the equation. That can be found by solving for y

  y -5 = 7x +14 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  y = 7x +19 . . . . . . . . . . add 5 to both sides

__

In standard form, the same line has equation ...
