Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio is 20:50, we can expand to 40:100, so 40%
Rewriting the equation as a quadratic equation equal to zero:
x^2 - x - 30 = 0
We need two numbers whose sum is -1 and whose product is -30. In this case, it would have to be 5 and -6. Therefore we can also write our equation in the factored form
(x + 5)(x - 6) = 0
Now we have a product of two expressions that is equal to zero, which means any x value that makes either (x + 5) or (x - 6) zero will make their product zero.
x + 5 = 0 => x = -5
x - 6 = 0 => x = 6
Therefore, our solutions are x = -5 and x = 6.
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3/4
(3,3)....x = 3 and y = 3
now we sub and find b, the y int
3 = -3/4(3) + b
3 = -9/4 + b
3 + 9/4 = b
12/4 + 9/4 = b
21/4 = b.....or 5.25 for graphing purposes
so ur equation is : y = -3/4x + 21/4
ur y int = (0,21/4) or (0,5.25)
ur x int can be found by subbing in 0 for y and solving for x
y = -3/4x + 21/4
0 = -3/4x + 21/4
3/4x = 21/4
x = 21/4 * 4/3
x = 84/12 = 7.....so ur x int is (7,0)
so plot ur points (7,0) and (0,5.25)....now start at (0,5.25) and since the slope is -3/4, come down 3 spaces and go to the right 4 spaces, then down 3, and to the right 4 and u will eventually cross the x axis at (7,0)
Answer:
Well if (a,b) is in Quadrant IV which is the last quadrant the a or x is a positive number and the b or y is a negative number.
