Step-by-step explanation:

2.5x + 5 = 65

Subtract 5 from both sides

2.5x = 60

Divide 2.5 from both sides

x = 24 days

You will want this equation to be in y=mx+b, because you already have the slope and y-intercept. X will be the number of days she has had the plant, and Y will be the height of the tree, because it is the variable being affected by the X. The slope, or the M, is 2.5 because this is the number of centimeters the tree grows per day. The y-intercept is 5, because this is the height of the tree originally. So, the equation is Y=2.5X+5. To solve the number of days Margo will have had the plant, plug in 65 (the height of the plant after a certain amount of days) into the Y variable and solve for X. So, 65=2.5X+5. Subtract 5 from both sides to get 60=2.5X, then divide both sides by 2.5 to get X=24. So, she will have owned the plant for 24 days.

What are the solutions of the equation x4 + 95x2 – 500 = 0? Use factoring to solve.
VMariaS [17]

Given

The equation in the form

x^{4}+95x^{2}-500 =0

Find the factor of the above equation

To proof

factoring the above equation

we get

x^{4}+100x^{2}-5x^{2}-500 =0\\\\x^{2}(x^{2}+100)-5(x^{2}+100)=0\\\\(x^{2}-5)(x^{2}+100)=0

now sloving the equation we get the value

x² = 5

x² = -100

x =\pm \sqrt{5}\\\\ x=\sqrt{-100}

The factor of the equation is

x=\pm \sqrt{5}\\\\ x= \pm 10i

Hence proved

I NEED HELP WITH THIS! ANYONE???
Aneli [31]

Answer:

y-axis, x-axis, y-axis, x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, so this problem looks a lot harder than it really is. When you flip a point across the x axis, y becomes negative, and when it is flipped across the y axis, x becomes negative. This means that if the x value changes signs it was flipped on the y axis, and vice versa.

Two pipes running together can fill a tank in 20 minutes.
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

45, 36

Step-by-step explanation:

let x y minutes be the time for pipes to fill the tank, let n be the water needed to fill the tank.

x-y=9

(n/x)*20+(n/y)*20=n

n is removed by dividing the 2nd equation by n

here u get:

(1/x+1/y)*20=1

you sub x=9+y into the above equation

1/y+1/(9+y)=1/20

((9+y)+(y))*20=(9+y)(y)

180+40y=9y+y2

y2-31y-180=0

then use the quadratic formula and u will find y=36 or -5

-5 is rejected because it is negative

x=36+9=45

therefore it is 36 mins and 45 mins
