Depends on what kind of music...... Well they are themselves, and Alice is herself, even if they could get good grades by doing homework while listening to music doesnt mean she could

If alpha and beta are the zeroes of the polynomial 6x2+x-2 find the value og alpha/beta + beta/alpha
castortr0y [4]
6x^2+x-2=6x^2+4x-3x-2=2x(3x+2)-1(3x+2)\\\\=(3x+2)(2x-1)\\\\3x+2=0\to x=-\frac{2}{3}\\\\2x-1=0\to x=\frac{1}{2}\\\\\alpha=-\frac{2}{3};\ \beta=\frac{1}{2}\\\\\frac{\alpha}{\beta}+\frac{\beta}{\alpha}=\frac{-\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{-\frac{2}{3}}=-\frac{2}{3}\cdot\frac{2}{1}-\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{3}{2}=-\frac{4}{3}-\frac{3}{4}\\\\=-\frac{16}{12}-\frac{9}{12}=-\frac{25}{12}=-2\frac{1}{12}


use\ Vieta's\ formula:\\\\\frac{\alpha}{\beta}+\frac{\beta}{\alpha}=\frac{\alpha^2+\beta^2}{\alpha\beta}=\frac{\alpha^2+2\alpha\beta+\beta^2-2\alpha\beta}{\alpha\beta}=\frac{(\alpha+\beta)^2-2\alpha\beta}{\alpha\beta}=\frac{(\alpha+\beta)^2}{\alpha\beta}-2\\\\\alpha+\beta=\frac{-b}{a};\ \alpha\beta=\frac{c}{a}\\\\\frac{(\alpha+\beta)^2}{\alpha\beta}-2=\frac{\left(\frac{-b}{a}\right)^2}{\frac{c}{a}}-2=\frac{b^2}{a^2}\cdot\frac{a}{c}-2=\frac{b^2}{ac}-2

6x^2+x-2\\\\a=6;\ b=1;\ c=-2\\\\\frac{\alpha}{\beta}+\frac{\beta}{\alpha}=\frac{1^2}{6\cdot(-2)}-2=\frac{1}{-12}-2=-2\frac{1}{12}

two pumps of different sizes, working together, can empty a fuel tank in 3 hours. the larger pump can empty the tank in 4 hours
bonufazy [111]
Suppose the larger pump alone can empty the tank in L hours, and the smaller pump can finish the job in S hours, then each hour the large pump empties 1/L portion of the tank, and the small pump empties 1/S per hour
Working together for three hours, they empty the whole tank, which is 100% of it, so 3/L+3/S=100%=1
Larger pump can empty the tank in 4 hours less than the smaller one, so L=S-4
replace L: 3/(S-4)+3/S=1
Make the denominator the same to solve for:
3S/[S(S-4)] +3(S-4)/[S(S-4)]=1
(3S+3S-12)/[S(S-4)]=1
(3S+3S-12)=[S(S-4)]
S^2-10s+12=0
use the quadratic formula to solve for S
S is about 8.6
The answer is not whole hour.
