2(x)^2 - 2(x) - 12 = ?
  
2(x)^2 - 2(x) - 12

(x)^2 - 6 - x

Multiply ↪1 (-6) = -6

1 + -6 = -5 , right?

-3 + 2 = -1, right?

After we have pulled out the like terms we have to add/subtract!   x(x) - 3

Search for the common denominator
2(x) - 3

You can add up 4 for your terms
x + 2 (x - 3)

Make sure you solve this↪ 2 = 0

x + 2 = ?
x + 2 = 0
We have found the first; x = -2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since, this one has a single variable, I'll make the step easier and quicker

Solve this part ↪    x-3 = 0 
If we had the number 3 to your sides we would have found the outcome of the next x
                    
So, the second x is 3 

So, therefore your answer would have to be x =-2 ; x = 3 (most likely option C.)

g Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 10 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the sh
Maslowich

Answer:

0.3537 feet per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 10 ft3/min. Since we are told that the shape formed is a cone, the rate of change of the volume of the cone.

\dfrac{dV}{dt}=10$ ft^3/min

\text{Volume of a cone}=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h

If the Base Diameter = Height of the Cone

The radius of the Cone = h/2

Therefore,

\text{Volume of the cone}=\dfrac{\pi h}{3} (\dfrac{h}{2}) ^2 \\V=\dfrac{\pi h^3}{12}

\text{Rate of Change of the Volume}, \dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{3\pi h^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}

Therefore: \dfrac{3\pi h^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}=10

We want to determine how fast is the height of the pile is increasing when the pile is 6 feet high.

When h=6$ feet$\\\dfrac{3\pi *6^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}=10\\9\pi \dfrac{dh}{dt}=10\\ \dfrac{dh}{dt}= \dfrac{10}{9\pi}\\ \dfrac{dh}{dt}=0.3537$ feet per minute

When the pile is 6 feet high, the height of the pile is increasing at a rate of 0.3537 feet per minute.

Ishaan is 2 times as older as Chris. 35 years ago, ishaan was 7 times as old as Chris. How old is Chris?
den301095 [7]

Answer

42

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be Chris's age before, x+35 be Chris's age now.

2(x+35) = 35+7x

2x+70 = 35 +7x

35=5x

7=x

7+35=42
