Answer:

Assuming that tablets can be devided, 2\frac{1}{2} tablets are needed.

Assuming that tablets cannot be devided, 3  tablets are needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total number of tablets that covers the order, we can divide the order total mg over each tablet mg.

\frac{TotalOrderMg}{SingleTabletMg} = \frac{75 mg}{30 mg} = 2.5 mg

  • Assuming that tablets can be devided, we can express the previous result in fractions

        2.5 = \frac{25}{10} = \frac{5}{2} = \frac{4}{2} + \frac{1}{2} = 2\frac{1}{2}

  • Assuming that tablets cannot be devided, we need to cover 2 tables and a half, then we will need 3 tables.

2x2 − 1 = 3x + 4 Which equation correctly applies the quadratic formula?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Standard form: ax^2 + bx + c = y

Steps to simplify:

2x^2 - 1 = 3x + 4

~Subtract (3x + 4) to both sides

2x^2 - 1 - 3x + 4 = 3x + 4 - 3x + 4

~Simplify

2x^2 - 3x - 5 = 0

(a = 2, b = -3, c = -5)

Now that we know what these values are, we can use the quadratic formula to solve.

x=\frac{-b-+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} \\x = \frac{-(-3)-+\sqrt{-3^2-4(2)(-5)} }{2(2)}\\x= \frac{-3-+\sqrt{49} }{4} \\x=\frac{3-+7}{4} \\x = \frac{10}{4}~or~\frac{-4}{4}  \\x=\frac{5}{2}~or~-1

Answer: x = 5/2 or x = -1

Best of Luck!

Answer:

  1. 13 ft
  2. (a) 1 second; (b) t = 0, t = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>1. </h3>

Let w represent the length of the wire. Then the height of attachment is (w-1). The Pythagorean theorem tells us a relevant relation is ...

  5² +(w -1)² = w²

  w² -2w +26 = w² . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  26 = 2w . . . . . . . . . . . . add 2w

  13 = w . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The length of the wire is 13 feet.

__

<h3>2. </h3>

(a) When h = 0, the equation is ...

  0 = -16t^2 +8t +8

Dividing by -8 puts this into standard form:

  2t^2 -t -1 = 0

Factoring, we get ...

  (2t +1)(t -1) = 0

The positive value of t that makes a factor zero is t = 1.

It will take 1 second for the gymnast to reach the ground.

__

(b) When h = 8, the equation is ...

  8 = -16t^2 +8t +8

Subtract 8 and divide by 8 to get ...

  0 = -2t^2 +t

  0 = t(1 -2t) . . . . factor out t

Values of t that make the factors zero are ...

  t = 0

  t = 1/2

The gymnast will be 8 feet above the ground at the start of the dismount, and 1/2 second later.
