Answer:
-2 1/3, -5/2, 1/16, 16
The more negative the number gets, the lesser it would be.
Let the amount of shells collected by Aaron be

and the amount of shells collected by Maria be

respectively. Then the following system of equations should be solved:

First of all, express

out of first equation:

Then, replace

in second equation with found expression and solve it:



Finally, replace

in first equation with found value and solve it too:


So, Aaron has found
7 shells while Maria has found
21.
Answer:
A function that gives the work required in foot-lbs to lift the bucket up x feet from the ground is
and the work to get the bucket to the top of the cliff is 3726 foot-lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Work done to lift the rope by distance x feet:

Work done to lift the bucket by distance x feet:

On reaching top 7 gallons of water spilled out so , on going up by x feet
gallons of water spilled out.
a function that gives the work required in foot-lbs to lift the bucket up x feet from the ground:

Now the work to get the bucket to the top of the cliff i.e. x =35

W=3726
Hence, a function that gives the work required in foot-lbs to lift the bucket up x feet from the ground is
and the work to get the bucket to the top of the cliff is 3726 foot-lbs
14,999(1+.o825)^4= 20,595. $429x48 months= 20,592
Interest rate 8 1/4%
Check 20592/14999= 1.37289
Log(1.37289)/ log(1.0825)= 3.99 years
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Eliminate answer 4 immediately, because (4)(3) is not 7.
Look at answer 2: 7x + 3x = 10x, which does not match the middle term 12x in the original polynomial. Eliminate answer 2.
Look at answer 1: 1x + 21x = 22x, which does not match the middle term of the original polynomial. Eliminate answer 1.
All quadratics have solutions. Let's apply the quadratic formula to 3x^2 + 12x + 7: Here a = 3, b = 12 and c = 7, so that the discriminant b²-4ac is
12²-4(3)(7), or 144 - 84, or 60. Being positive, this tells us that the given poly has two real, unequal roots:
-12 ± √60 -12 + 2√15 -12 - 2√15
x = ----------------- = ------------------- and x = --------------------
3 3 3
Normally, if c is a root, then x - c is a factor.
If we try this here, however, the resulting factors do not at all match any of your answer choices.
