I'm guessing the equation is 2x^2-3x=-5
If this is the case, then you need to set the equation to equal 0 by moving the -5 to the left side of it
2x^2-3x+5=0
The you can factor the equation
(2x-5)(x+1)=0
now solve for each factor
2x-5=0 is x=5/2x
x+1=0 is x=-1
Girl age is 11 years old
Fathers age is 39 years old
How to solve it:
Let the girls age be x years
Let the fathers age be (x+28) years
X+X+28=50
2x=50-28
2x=22
X=11
(11+28)= 39
Answer:
y=-4x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
Answer:
17.9 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the slick = 0.5 x π r² h--------------------------------- (1)
Where r = radius of slick
h = thickness of slick, 10⁻⁶m
If 0.5m³ of oil leaked, then the radius of the semicircular slick can be calculated from equation (1)
V = 0.5 x π r² h
0.5= 0.5 x π x r² x 10⁻⁶
r² = 10⁶/ π
r = 10³/√π
dV/dt = πrh dr/dt + 0.5π r² dh/dt----------------------------------- (2)
Asumming the film thickness is constant , equation (2) becomes
dV/dt = πrh dr/dt-------------------------------- (3)
dV/dt = 0.1m³/day
r= 10³/√π
dr/dt= rate of expansion of the slick
Substituting into (3);
0.1 = π x 10³/√π x 10⁻⁶ x dr/dt
dr/dt = 0.1 x 10⁶/ ( π x 10³/√π)
= 17.9479 m/s
≅ 17.9 m/s
