Answer:

$\textbf{C}\quad\dfrac{13}{20}=\dfrac{25}{40} \qquad\textbf{FALSE}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the equations represents equivalent fractions except the one in choice C.

13/20 = 26/40, not 25/40.

<em>Comment on equal sign</em>

IMO, one should never use an equal sign where things are not equal--unless there is a clear indication you understand they are not equal. The equal sign should be regarded as a sacred symbol, with very specific rules as to its meaning and use.

1.What are the zeros of the polynomial function?

Lorico [155]

Let's to the first example:

f(x) = x^2 + 9x + 20

Ussing the formula of basckara

a = 1
b = 9
c = 20

Delta = b^2 - 4ac

Delta = 9^2 - 4.(1).(20)

Delta = 81 - 80

Delta = 1

x = [ -b +/- √(Delta) ]/2a

Replacing the data:

x = [ -9 +/- √1 ]/2

x' = (-9 -1)/2 <=> - 5

Or

x" = (-9+1)/2 <=> - 4
_______________

Already the second example:

f(x) = x^2 -4x -60

Ussing the formula of basckara again

a = 1
b = -4
c = -60

Delta = b^2 -4ac

Delta = (-4)^2 -4.(1).(-60)

Delta = 16 + 240

Delta = 256

Then, following:

x = [ -b +/- √(Delta)]/2a

Replacing the information

x = [ -(-4) +/- √256 ]/2

x = [ 4 +/- 16]/2

x' = (4-16)/2 <=> -6

Or

x" = (4+16)/2 <=> 10
______________

Now we are going to the 3 example

x^2 + 24 = 14x

Isolating 14x , but changing the sinal positive to negative

x^2 - 14x + 24 = 0

Now we can to apply the formula of basckara

a = 1
b = -14
c = 24

Delta = b^2 -4ac

Delta = (-14)^2 -4.(1).(24)

Delta = 196 - 96

Delta = 100

Then we stayed with:

x = [ -b +/- √Delta ]/2a

x = [ -(-14) +/- √100 ]/2

We wiil have two possibilities

x' = ( 14 -10)/2 <=> 2

Or

x" = (14 +10)/2 <=> 12
________________

To the last example will be the same thing.

f(x) = x^2 - x -72

a = 1
b = -1
c = -72

Delta = b^2 -4ac

Delta = (-1)^2 -4(1).(-72)

Delta = 1 + 288

Delta = 289

Then we are going to stay:

x = [ -b +/- √Delta]/2a

x = [ -(-1) +/- √289]/2

x = ( 1 +/- 17)/2

We will have two roots

That's :

x = (1 - 17)/2 <=> -8

Or

x = (1+17)/2 <=> 9

Well, this would be your answers.

George wishes to increase the percent of acid in 50 ml of a 15% acid solution in water

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

screw this question

Step-by-step explanation:

To change from 15% to 25% he needs to add 10%.

If the solution is 50ml then he needs to add 10% which is 5ml... But if he adds 5 ml then the solution will be 55ml total, so that doesn't make sense. He has to take some of the solution that's not acid before adding the 5ml...

Ede4ka [16]

Answer: The area common to both triangle is 31.77 sq. cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

30-60-90 triangles are placed.

So, the ratio of sides would be
