Lets call those two unknown numbers a, b and write the info in the problem as equations:
a*b = 30
a + b = 40
lets solve for a in the second equation and substitute in the first:
<span>a + b = 40
</span>a = 40 - b
therefore:
<span>a*b = 30
</span>(40 - b)b = 30
40b - b^2 = 30
b^2 - 40b + 30 = 0
if we apply the general quadratic equation to solve we have:
b = (40 +- √(1600 - 120))/2
b = (40 +- √(1480<span>))/2
</span>b = (40 +- 38.47)/2
There are two solutions:
<span>b1 = (40 + 38.47)/2
</span><span>b1 = 39.24
b2 = (40 - 38.47)/2
</span>b2 = 0.765
lets use the second solution <span>b2 = 0.765, and substitute in the first equation to find a:
</span><span>a*b = 30
</span>a*0.765 = 30
a = 30/0.765
a = 39.216
so the numbers are 39.216 and 0.765

(15x2) = 30, (30 + 10) = 40 .. (P.E.M.D.A.S)

Find the area of the trapezoid
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

15 + 23 = 38

38 x 9 = 342

342 x 1/2 (basically just dividing by 2) 171

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula of a trapezoid:

B1(base 1) + B2(base 2) x H(height) x 1/2(basically just dividing by 2)

In this case,

12 and 23 are your bases, 9 is your height.

If the function rule is to divide by 10, and there is an output value is 7.2, what is the input value?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
The answer is:  "72" .
______________________________________________
 (input value, or "x")  / 10 = y  = f(x);

When y = 7.2, what is the value of "x" ?


x / 10 = 7.2 ;

x = (7.2) * 10 = 72 .

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

9:30am

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Start time= 8:20am

Folding time= 25min

Time spent on Puzzle= 45min

Total time = 25+45= 70min= 1:10 min

Therefore the time she finishes is

8:20+ 1:10= 9:30 am

Hence she finished by 9:30am
