What are the solutions to the equation 0=x^2+5x-6?

Serga [27]

Answer: 1/24

Step-by-step explanation: if you take 8 and change it to 1/8, you can multiply it by 1/3 and 1x1 is 1 and 8x3 is 24 so it’s 1 over 24 or 1/24

The upper-left coordinates on a rectangle are (-6,0)(−6,0)left parenthesis, minus, 6, comma, 0, right parenthesis, and the upper

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

See attachment for rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$A = (-6,0)$

$B = (-4,0)$

$Area = 12$

Required

Draw the rectangle

First, we calculate the distance between A and B using distance formula;

$AB = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}$

So, we have:

$AB = \sqrt{(-6 - -4)^2 + (0- 0)^2}$

$AB = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (0)^2}$

$AB = \sqrt{4 + 0}$

$AB = \sqrt{4}$

$AB = 2$

The above represents the length of the triangle.

Next, calculate the width using:

$Length * Width = Area$

$2* Width = 12$

Divide both sides by 2

$Width = 6$

This implies that, the width of the rectangle is 6 units.

We have:

$A = (-6,0)$

$B = (-4,0)$

Since A and B are at the upper left and right, then the ther two points are below.

6 units below each of the above point are:

$C = (-6,0-6)\\$ => $C = (-6,-6)$

$D = (-4,0-6)$ => $D = (-4,-6)$

Hence, the points of the rectangle are:

$A = (-6,0)$

$B = (-4,0)$

$C = (-6,-6)$

$D = (-4,-6)$

Find the slope of the tangent line to the graph of f at the given point.

jarptica [38.1K]

slope = 13

the slope of the tangent is f'( 4)

given f(x) = x² + 5x , then f'(x) = 2x + 5

and f'(4) = ( 2 × 4 ) + 5 = 13

Suppose an apple picker in China earns an average wage of 45 cents per hour. An apple picker can harvest about 2.0 bushels of ap

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

0.0398 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that

An apple picker in China earns an average wage of 45 cents per hour.

Mathematically

1 hour= 45 cents............ Equation 1

An apple picker can harvest about 2.0 bushels of apples each hour.

Mathematically

2.0 bushels = 1 hour ..............Equation 2

We are told that each bushel contains about 126 apples

1 bushel = 126 apples

2 bushels =

126 × 2

= 252 apples

Combining Equation 1 and 2 together,

We can say

An apple picker in 1 hour harvests 2 bushels of apples which is 252 apples and is paid 45 cents

1 hour = 2 bushels of apples

1 hour = 252 apples

1 hour = 45 cents

Hence we can say fro harvesting 252 apples, an apples picker is paid 45 cents

Mathematically,

252 apples = 45 cents

One gallon of apple juice requires 40 apples

We are to calculate the labor cost of one gallon of apple juice in dollars

If : 252 apples = 45 cents

40 apples = X cents

Cross Multiply

40 × 25 = 252 × X

X = (40× 25) ÷ 252

X = 3.984063745 cents

Hence the labor cost of 40 apples = 3.984063745 cents

Approximately = 3.98 cents

Converting 3.98 cents to dollars

100 cents = 1 dollar

3.98 cents =

= 3.98/100

= 0.0398 dollars.

Therefore, the labor cost of one gallon of apple juice in dollars is 0.0398 dollars.
