\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
\stackrel{burned}{log}&\stackrel{time}{hr}\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{3}{4}&\frac{1}{3}\\\\
2\frac{1}{2}&h
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}}{2\frac{1}{2}}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{3}}{h}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{2\cdot 2+1}{2}}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{h}{1}}

\bf \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{5}{2}}=\cfrac{1}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{h}\implies \cfrac{3}{4}\cdot \cfrac{2}{5}=\cfrac{1}{3h}\implies \cfrac{6}{20}=\cfrac{1}{3h}\implies 6\cdot 3h=20\cdot 1
\\\\\\
18h=20\implies h=\cfrac{20}{18}\implies h=\cfrac{10}{9}\implies h=1\frac{1}{9}

about 1 hour and 6 minutes with 36 seconds.

Multiply the binomial and the trinomial. <br> (x-2)(x^2+2x+4)
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to multiple x and -2 by x^{2} + 2x + 4 and add the results together:

x(x^{2} + 2x + 4)

x^{3} + 2x^{2} + 4x

-2(x^{2} + 2x + 4)

-2x^{2} - 4x - 8

Adding the two together give the following:

(x^{3} + 2x^{2} + 4x) + (-2x^{2} - 4x - 8)

x^{3} - 8
