Sasha is bisecting a segment. First, she places the compass on one endpoint, opens it to a width larger than half of the segment

, and swings an arc on either side of the segment. Then, she keeps the compass the same width and places it on the other endpoint. What is her next step

Her next step is to repeat the last process of drawing those two arcs. However, they will be mirrored since she swapped endpoints.

Check out the diagram below. Figure 1 is what she already has. Figure 2 is what happens after completing the next step. The red and blue arcs intersect to help form the endpoints of the perpendicular bisector. I used GeoGebra to make the diagrams.

Factor the expression 3x^(2)+10x+8
marin [14]

Hello,

If we want to factor the expression, we have to solve

3x² + 10x + 8 = 0

a = 3 ; b = 10 ; c = 8

∆ = b² - 4ac = 10² - 4 × 3 × 8 = 4 > 0

x1 = (-b - √∆)/2a = (-10 - 2)/6 = -12/6 = -2

x2 = (-b + √∆)/2a = (-10 + 2)/6 = -8/6 = -4/3

Factor :

a (x - x1)(x - x2)

= 3(x + 2)(x + 4/3)

= (x + 2)(3x + 4)

How do you solve a-9/a3
Klio2033 [76]
Is it this?
\frac{a - 9}{a3}
If so, then
\frac{a - 9}{a3}  = 0 \\  \frac{a}{a3}  -  \frac{9}{a3}  = 0 \\  \frac{1}{3}   -  \frac{9}{a3}  \\  \frac{1}{3}  =  \frac{9}{a3}  \\ 3( \frac{1}{3} ) = 3( \frac{9}{a3} ) \\ 1 =  \frac{9}{a}  \\ a = 9

Water fills a tank at a rate of 150 litres during the first hour, 350 litres during the second, 550 litres during the third and
Alborosie
Putting this as an arithmetic sequence gives:

u_n = 150+200(n-1)

The sum of the series = 16 x 7 x 7 = 784 m^3 = 784 000 L

The sum of an arithmetic series can be written as:

S_n=n/2 [2a+(n-1)d] = 784 000&#10;\\n/2[2(150)+(n-1)200] = 784 000&#10;\\n[300+200(n-1)=1 568 000&#10;\\300n+200n^2-200n = 1 568 000&#10;\\200n^2+100n- 1 568 000 = 0&#10;\\2n^2 +n- 15680 = 0&#10;&#10;\\n= 88.2...,-88.7

n has to be positive, so we get

n = <u>88.2 hours (3 s.f.)</u>
