Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The best mechanical advantage you can get is obtained by pushing the door at its edge. If the door's center of mass is halfway from the hinge to the edge, then the advantage you get (in terms of force reduction) is ...

1/(1/2) = 2

MrRa [10]

Answer: g = 15 . Georgia has 15 electoral votes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mental math: How many do I need to make up the difference?

counting by 5s: 5, 10 15, 20.

6 is one more than 5.

From 5, three more 5's gets us close to 20. It works.

6 + 15 = 21

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is A = πr², where r is the radius. That means in order to solve this we have to find the value of x, which is the diameter of the lake, and then divide it in half to get the radius. To find x we will use similar triangles and proportions. x is the height of the big triangle and 4.5 is the height of the smaller triangle; 15.3 + 7.4 is the hypotenuse of the big triangle and 7.4 is the hypotenuse of the smaller triangle. Setting up our proportion:

$\frac{x}{4.5}=\frac{15.3+7.4}{7.4}$ which simplifies a bit to

$\frac{x}{4.5}=\frac{22.7}{7.4}$ and cross multiply to solve for x:

7.4x = 102.15 so

x = 13.8 That is the diameter of the lake. Divide it in half to get 6.9, the radius. Applying the area formula for a circle:

A = (3.14)(6.9)² and

A = 3.14(47.61) so

A = 149.5 which rounds to 150, Choice C

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

O

3x² - 11x - 4 = 0

a = 3 ; b = -11 , c = -4

$Sum \ of \ roots = \dfrac{-b}{a}=\dfrac{-(-11)}{3}=\dfrac{11}{3}\\\\Product \ of \ roots =\dfrac{c}{a}=\dfrac{-4}{3}\\\\$

W

8x² + 12x = -1

8x² + 12x + 1 = 0

a = 8 ; b = 12 ; c = 1

$Sum \ of \ roots =\dfrac{-b}{a}=\dfrac{-12}{8}=\dfrac{-3}{2}\\\\Product \ of \ roots = \dfrac{c}{a}=\dfrac{1}{8}$

L

x² + x = 6

x² + x - 6 = 0

a = 1 ; b= 1 ; c = -6

$Sum \ of \ roots = \dfrac{-1}{1}=-1\\\\Product \ of \ roots = \dfrac{-6}{1}=-6$

G

x²- 2x - 2 =0

a = 1 ; b = -2 ; c = -2

$Sum \ of \ roots = \dfrac{-(-2)}{1}=2\\\\Product \ of \ roots = \dfrac{-2}{1}=-2$

E

4x - 5 = -4x²

4x² + 4x - 5 = 0

a = 4 ; b = 4 ; c = -5

$Sum \ of \ roots = \dfrac{-4}{4}=-1\\\\Product \ of \ roots=\dfrac{-5}{4}$

B

12x² +x -6 = 0

a = 12 ; b = 1 ; c = -6

$Sum \ of \ roots =\dfrac{-1}{12}\\\\Product \ of \ roots =\dfrac{-6}{12}=\dfrac{-1}{2}$

R

2x² + 5x - 25 = 0

a = 2 ; b = 5 ; c = -25

$Sum \ of \ roots=\dfrac{-5}{2}\\\\Product \ of \ roots =\dfrac{-25}{2}$

A

6x² -5x - 4 = 0

a = 6 ; b = -5 ; c = -4

$Sum \ of \ roots =\dfrac{-[-5]}{6}=\dfrac{5}{6}\\\\Product \ of \ roots = \dfrac{-4}{6}=\dfrac{-2}{3}$

joja [24]

Answer:

203.20 millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

StartFraction 8 inches Over question mark millimeters EndFraction = StartFraction 40 inches Over 1,016 millimeters

8 inches / ? Millimeters = 40 inches / 1,016 millimeters

8 × 1,016 = ? × 40

8,128 = 40?

Divide both sides by 40

? = 8,128 / 40

= 203.20

? = 203.20 millimeters

There are 203.20 millimeters in 8 inches
