4 days
donvert 3 and 1/3 to imporopoer
3 and 1/3=3+1/3=9/3+1/3=10/3

divide 10/3 by 4
remember that divide by 4 means multiply by 1/4
10/3 times 1/4=10/12=5/6

each day spends 5/6 hour (about 50 mins)

First lets convert 3 1/3 into the improper fraction: 10/3

Then lets divide 10/3 by 4 which is equal to 10/3 * 1/4
which is equal to 5/6 hours per day!

Answer:

$x=5,\frac{-9+\sqrt{255}i }{4} ,\frac{-9-\sqrt{255}i }{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Move all terms to one side.

$2x^{3} -x^{2} -3x-210=0$

2) Factor $2{x}^{3}-{x}^{2}-3x-210$ using Polynomial Division.

1 - Factor the following.

$2x^{3} -x^{2} -3x-210$

2 - First, find all factors of the constant term 210.

$1,2,3,4,5,6,7,10,14,15,21,30,35,42,70,105,210$

3) Try each factor above using the Remainder Theorem.

Substitute 1 into x. Since the result is not 0, x-1 is not a factor..

$2*1^{3} -1^{2} -3*1-210=-212$

Substitute -1 into x. Since the result is not 0, x+1 is not a factor..

$2(-1)^{3} -(-1)^{2} -3*-1-210=-210$

Substitute 2 into x. Since the result is not 0, x-2 is not a factor..

$2*2^{3} -2^{2} -3*2-210=-204$

Substitute -2 into x. Since the result is not 0, x+2 is not a factor..

$2{(-2)}^{3}-{(-2)}^{2}-3\times -2-210 = -224$

Substitute 3 into x. Since the result is not 0, x-3 is not a factor..

$2\times {3}^{3}-{3}^{2}-3\times 3-210 = -174$

Substitute -3 into x. Since the result is not 0, x+3 is not a factor..

$2{(-3)}^{3}-{(-3)}^{2}-3\times -3-210 = -264$

Substitute 5 into x. Since the result is 0, x-5 is a factor..

$2\times {5}^{3}-{5}^{2}-3\times 5-210 =0$

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

⇒ $x-5$

4) Polynomial Division: Divide $2{x}^{3}-{x}^{2}-3x-210$ by $x-5$ .

$2x^{2}$ $9x$ $42$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

$x-5$ | $2x^{3}$ $-x^{2}$ $-3x$ $-210$

$2x^{3}$ $-10x^{2}$

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

$9x^{2}$ $-3x$ $-210$

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

$42x$ $-210$

$42x$ $-210$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

5) Rewrite the expression using the above.

$2x^2+9x+42$

$(2x^2+9x+42)(x-5)=0$

3) Solve for $x.$

$x=5$

4) Use the Quadratic Formula.

1 - In general, given $a{x}^{2}+bx+c=0$ , there exists two solutions where:

$x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} ,\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

2 - In this case, $a=2,b=9$ and $c = 42.$

$x=\frac{-9+\sqrt{9^2*-4*2*42} }{2*2} ,\frac{-9-\sqrt{9^2-4*2*42} }{2*2}$

3 - Simplify.

$x=\frac{-9+\sqrt{255}i }{4} ,\frac{-9-\sqrt{255}i }{4}$

5) Collect all solutions from the previous steps.

$x=5,\frac{-9+\sqrt{255}i }{4} ,\frac{-9-\sqrt{255}i }{4}$

What is solution of 5+3(y-4)=5(y+2)-y

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

y = -17

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + 3(y - 4) = 5(y + 2) - y Distribute

5 + 3y -12 = 5y + 10 - y Combine like terms

-7 + 3y = 4y + 10

+7 +17 Add 17 to both sides

3y = 4y + 17

-4y -4y Subtract 4y from both sides

-y = 17 Divide both sides by -1

y = -17

Answer:

D. The figure is not necessarily a parallelogram because only one diagonal is bisected and only one pair of sides is congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The parallelogram has the following properties:</em>

<em>Opposite sides are parallel by definition.</em>
<em>Opposite sides are congruent.</em>
<em>Opposite angles are congruent.</em>
<em>Consecutive angles are supplementary.</em>
<em>The diagonals bisect each other.</em>

A. The figure is a parallelogram because there are two pairs of congruent sides.

- no

B. The figure is a parallelogram because a diagonal is bisected.

- no

C. The figure is not necessarily a parallelogram because the diagonals are not congruent.

-no
