Answer:
x = - 2, x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 10 x = 24 ( subtract 24 from both sides )
x² - 10x - 24 = 0 ← in standard form
To factorise the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 24) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 10)
The factors are - 12 and + 2, since
- 12 × 2 = - 24 and - 12 + 2 = - 10, thus
(x - 12)(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
The ratio is:
Chlorine : Water = 1 : 10
m ( Water ) = 15 ounces
m ( Chlorine ) = x
x : 15 = 1 : 10
10 x = 15 * 1
10 x = 15
x = 15 : 10
x = 1.5 ounces
Answer:
We need to add 1.5 ounces of Chlorine for the correct ratio.
It's undefined, but I think you spelled it wrong.
Answer:
f(- 2) = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate f(- 2) substitute x = - 2 into f(x)
f(- 2) = 3(- 2) + 4 = - 6 + 4 = - 2
