Answer:

3 3/5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one measure of volume be 5/9 of a tank, or (5/9)(tank).

We're interested in filling the whole tank, which we represent by (1)(tank) or (9/9)(tank.

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

 (5/9) (tank)        2 minutes

------------------- = ----------------

  (9/9) (tank)               x

Solve for x, which represents the number of minutes required to fill the whole tank:

(5/9)(x) = (9/9)(2), or (after simplifying) 5x = 18, or x = 18/5 (3  3/5 minutes)

The whole tank will be filled in 3  3/5 minutes.

This is a quadratic formula with a general form of a²x + bx + c = 0. For quadratic equations, we can solve for its two roots using the quadratic formula shown in the attached picture.

a = -3
b = -4
c = -4

x = [-(-4) + √(-4)² - 4(-3)(-4)]/2(-3) = <em>2 + √-32/2</em>
x = [-(-4) - √(-4)² - 4(-3)(-4)]/2(-3) =<em> 2 - √-32/2</em>

PLEASE HELP im super confused

Answer:

7 Quarters and 3 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find how many quarters (0.25) and dimes (0.10) are in $2.05. There are 7 quarters, which will add up to $1.75. You can't have 8 quarters because then you would have 2 dollars, and there wouldn't be enough for a dime, there would only by 5 cents left, or a nickle. Then, you find out how many nickels you need, which is 3.

.10x3=.30. 1.75+0.3=2.05.

I hope you understood:)
