Given that a company budgeted 5 1/4 hours to complete a project, determine how much time they spent on research if they spent 1/3 of the total budget.
First, convert the budget from hours into minutes.
5 1/4 hours = 315 minutes
1 hour = 60 min
1/4 hour = 15 min
60 x 5 = 300
300 + 15 = 315
Then, divide the minutes by 3 or multiply it by 1/3.
315 / 3 = 105
315 x 1/3 = 105
Lastly convert to a mixed number.
1 3/4 hour
Thus, the company plans to spend 1 3/4 hours or 1 hour and 45 minutes on research.
Direct variation means their ratio is a constant
x/y is 9/45=1/5
so when x=2, y=5*2=10
Answer:
since 3x^2-7x+4=0 is in the form ax^2+bx+c=0, a=3, b=-7, c=4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
|4x-3|=5√(x+4) ⇔ |4x-3|²=5²(√(x+4))² and x+4 ≥ 0
⇔ (4x-3)² = 25(x+4) and x+4 ≥ 0 ( because : /a/² = a²)
⇔16x²-24x+9 = 25x +100 and x+4 ≥ 0
⇔ 16x² -49x - 91 =0 and x+4 ≥ 0 quadratic equation
Δ = (-49)²-4(16)(-91) = 8225
two solution : X1 = (49-√8225)/32 ≅ - 1.3 accept (-1.3+4 ≥ 0)
X2 = (49+√8225)/32 ≅4.37 accept (4.37+4 ≥ 0)
