Well if you were to put the problem into words, it'd be:
x/-8 = -25

Thus, to solve for x, multiply both sides by -8:
x/-8(-8) = -25(-8)
x = 200

The answer is the answer is C and F.

This is found by inserting the equation above into the quadratic formula or -b plus or minus the square root of b^2 - 4ac over 2a.

With that, you find that the first number is a -3, which eliminates choices B and D.

Then, solving the 4ac portion, you find that inside the square root the number is 29, which gives you the last two answer choices.

Hope this helps!

The length of a rectangle is 6 units and its width is 4 units. What is the approximate length of the diagonal of the rectangle?
ss7ja [257]
The correct answer is:  [D]:  " 7.2 units" .
_______________________________________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________________________
Use the Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c² ;

in which:  "6 units" and "4 units" equal the lengths of the right angle (formed by the rectangle);  and "c" is the length of the diagonal of the rectangle, or the "hypotenuse", of the right triangle formed by the rectangle;  We wish to solve for "c" ;
_______________________________________________

6² + 4² = c² ;  Solve for "c" ;

↔ c² = 6² + 4² ; 

         = (6*6) + (4*4) ;
 
         = 36 + 16 ;

        =  52 ;

    c² = 52 ;

Take the "positive square root" of each side of the equation; to isolate "c" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "c" ; 

  √(c²)  =  √52 ; 

    c = √52 ;  

At this point, we know the 7² = 49 ;  8² = 64 ;  so, the answer is somewhere between "7" and "8" ; yet closer to "7" ;  so among the answer choices given; 

The correct answer is:  [D]:  " 7.2 units" .
_________________________________________
However, let use a calculator:

c = √52 = 7.2111025509279786 ; which rounds to "7.2" ;
   which corresponds to:

Answer choice:  [C]:  " 7.2 units" .

When David was asked how old he was, he said " I'm three times younger than my dad, but twice as old as Rebecca. " Then little R
daser333 [38]

Using a system of equations, it is found that David is 12 years old.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

The variables are given as follows:

  • Variable x: David's age.
  • Variable y: Dad's age.
  • Variable z: Rebecca's age.

David is three times younger than the dad and twice as old as Rebecca, then:

  • x = y/3 -> y = 3x.
  • x = 2z.

Rebecca is 30 years younger than the dad, hence:

z = y - 30.

Then, since x = 2z and z = y - 30 and y = 3x, we solve for x to find David's age.

x = 2(y - 30)

x = 2(3x - 30)

x = 6x - 60

5x = 60

x = 60/5

x = 12.

David is 12 years old.
