Answer:
x = - 2 or x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x² - 9x - 30 = 0 ← in standard form
Divide all terms by 3
x² - 3x - 10 = 0
To factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 10) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 3)
The factors are - 5 and + 2, since
- 5 × 2 = - 10 and - 5 + 2 = - 3, thus
x² - 3x - 10 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
Answer:
39 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is calculated by the expression given as:
Area = bh/2
where b is the base and h is the height.
We calculate as follows:
270 = b (15) / 2
b = 36
hypotenuse = sqrt ( 15^2 + 36^2 ) = 39
Its not that hard... whats the question
Answer: x = -6
Step-by-step explanation: The problem gave us the y value, so we can just substitute it into the equation and solve it.
y = x - 6
y = 2x
2x = x - 6 (substitute the y value into the equation)
1x = -6 (subtract x on each side)
x = -6 (1x is basically saying x so you do not need to divide)
It will take total 90 minutes to finish the book and 60 minutes to read the left 40 pages.
<h3>What is Ratio and Proportion ?</h3>
When two numbers can be written as p/q is called a Ratio , and when two ratios are equal they are said to be in proportion .
It is given that
Jeremy is reading a 60-page book.
The time taken to read 20 pages is 30 minutes
Then it can be written as 20:30 = 2:3
The rate of reading is same so To read the rest 40 pages is given by
40:x
40: x = 2:3
40*3/2 = x
x = 60 minutes
Therefore it will take total 90 minutes to finish the book and 60 minutes to read the left 40 pages.
