The answer is the number 12. This is because if 12 is added to 24 it equals 36 and if 12 is multipled by 3 it is 36.

It took 5 hours to mow 4 lawns. At that rate, how long will it take to mow 7 lawns?

So you divide 5 by 4 and get 1 2/5 so then multiply that by 7:) hope it helps tell me if I'm wrong

Colton has math and reading homework tonight. Colton can solve each math problem in 3 minutes and he can read each page in 1.5 m

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Colton solved 9 math problems and read 18 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

9*2=18

9 problems * 3 minutes per problem= 27 minutes

18 pages * 1.5 minutes per page= 27 minutes

27 + 27=54

The best way to solve is by trial and error and just testing out different numbers to see if they will work.

What are all of the real roots of the following polynomial? f(x) = x^4 -24x^2 - 25 A. -1 or 1 B. -5 or 5 C. -5, -1, 1, or 5 D. -

professor190 [17]

For this case we have the following function:

$f (x) = x ^ 4-24x ^ 2-25$

We make a change of variable:

$u = x ^ 2$

So, we have:

$u ^ 2-24u-25$

We apply the resolver:

$a = 1\\b = -24\\c = -25\\$

$u = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2 (a)}\\u = \frac {- (- 24) \pm \sqrt {(- 24) ^ 2-4 (1) (- 25)}} {2 (1)}\\u = \frac {24 \pm \sqrt {576 + 100}} {2}\\u = \frac {24 \pm \sqrt {676}} {2}\\u = \frac {24\pm26} {2}$

We have two roots:

$u_ {1} = \frac {24 + 26} {2} = 25\\u_ {2} = \frac {24-26} {2} = - 1$

Returning the change:

$x ^ 2 = 25\\x = \pm \sqrt {25} = \pm5$

$x ^ 2 = -1$ Give the imaginary roots.

Answer:

Real roots $\pm5$
