they will both " ash " in 120 seconds (thats 2 minutes)...so they will both ash at
10:42 a.m.
Let's build the equation counting how many x's and 1's are there on each side.
On the left hand side we have 5x's and 8 1's, for a total of 
On the left hand side we have 3x's and 10 1's, for a total of 
So, the equation we want to solve is

Subtract 3x from both sides:

Subtract 8 from both sides:

Divide both sides by 2:

Answer:
x=9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b.
Y and x stay.
M is your slope.
B is your y-intercept.
Hope that this helps!
Answer:
-56/9
Step-by-step explanation:
By Vieta's formulas,
$r + s = -\frac{4}{3}$ and $rs = \frac{12}{3} = 4.$ Squaring the equation $r + s = -\frac{4}{3},$ we get
$r^2 + 2rs + s^2 = \frac{16}{9}.$ Therefore,
$r^2 + s^2 = \frac{16}{9} - 2rs = \frac{16}{9} - 2 \cdot 4 = -\frac{56}{9}}$
