What is the solution to: T/t-4=t+4/6

1 answer:

4 0

$\frac{t}{t-4}= \frac{t+4}{6} \\ t \neq 4 \\ 6t= (t+4)(t-4) \\ 6t=t^2-16 \\ t^2-6t-16=0 \\ D=b^2-4ac=(-6)^2-4*1*(-16)=36+64=100 \\ t_{1,2}= \frac{-bб \sqrt{D} }{2a} \\ t_1= \frac{6-10}{2}=-2 \\ \ t_2= \frac{6+10}{2}=8$

Answer: t=-2, t=8

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that After writing part of his novel, Thomas is now writing 16 pages per week

After 4 weeks, he has written 85 pages.

Given that assume the relationship to be linear

Linear relationships can be expressed either in a graphical format or as a mathematical equation of the form y = mx + c

y = mx + c

where "y" is the number of pages written after 4 weeks

x = 4 weeks and m = 16 pages

Therefore,

85 = 16(4) + c

85 = 64 + c

c = 85 - 64

c = 21

Therefore, initial value is 21 and rate of change is 16 pages per week

The solid surface area is equal to the solid volume. Find the value of x? The measurements of the rectangular prism is 9 inches

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

$x=7.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent height of the prism.

We know that volume of rectangular is equal to product of its height, width and length.

$\text{Surface area of rectangular prism}=2(wl+lh+hw)$ , where w, h and l represents width, length and height respectively.

We have been given that the surface area of rectangular prism is equal to the volume of the prism. So we can set an equation as:

$lwh=2(wl+lh+hw)$

We are also told that the measurements of the rectangular prism is 9 inches long and 4 inches wide. Upon substituting these values in above equation, we will get:

$9\cdot 4\cdot x=2(4\cdot 9+9\cdot x+x\cdot 4)$
