Answer:

4x^2+8x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

You work backwards to get (2x-1) which gets you the root 1/2 and (2x+5) which gets you the root -5/2 after this you foil what you have so (2x-1) times (2x+5). You do 2x times 2x which gives you 4x^2 2x times 5 which gives you 10x -1 times 2x which gives -2x and lastly -1 times 5 which gives you -5 now you combine like terms and get your final answer of 4x^2+8x-5

Marine fuel is a combination of gasoline and motor oil. The standard gasoline and oil mixture is about 98% gasoline and about 2%

Georgia [21]

Answer:

0.98g+ 0.02m= 7.1224 gallons standard mixture

0.96g+ 0.04m= 6.25 gallons break oil

3.92 gallons of gasoline is required for 4 gallons the standard mixture

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have to use 6 gallons of gasoline this means that 98%= 6 gallons and 2% would be 6/98*2

Gasoline: Motor oil

6 : x

98 : 2

Using the product rule

x= 6*2/98= 0.1224 gallons of motor oil is required.

Let the gasoline be represented by g and motor oil by m then for the standard oil the equation would be

0.98g+ 0.02m= 7.1224 gallons standard mixture

For break in oil

Gasoline: Motor oil

6 : x

96 : 4

Using the product rule

x= 6*4/96= 0.25 gallons of motor oil is required.

Let the gasoline be represented by g and motor oil by m then for the break oil the equation would be

0.96g+ 0.04m= 6.25 gallons break oil

Part b. For 4 gallons of the "break in" mixture

96% of the 4 gallons of the "break in" mixture is gasoline = 3.84 gallons of gasoline

4% of 4 = 0.16 gallons of motor oil

Now the standard mixture 4 gallons would contain 98 % of gasoline and 2 % of motor oil

98% of 4 gallons= 3.92 gallons of gasoline

2% of 4 gallons= 0.08 gallons of motor oil.

Which equation models a line that passes through point (-2,2) And has a slope of -8

trasher [3.6K]

So we will be using $y=mx+b$ form, in which m = slope and b = y-intercept. Since we know the slope (-8), all we need to do is solve for the y-intercept. We can do this by inserting (-2,2) into the equation and solve for b.
