Timetaken=number of days tiems hours per day
reading=5/6 times 3=5/2
science=3/4 times 2=3/2
math=1/2 times 4=4/2

total is 5/2+3/2+4/2=12/2=6 hours total

Milana said she spent 5 and 1/2 hours total
she is wrong

Michaela saiid she spent 2 and 1/2 hours
she is also wrong


they both made mistakes somehow, I don't know how

5/6 = 50 minutes     3/4 = 45 minutes   1/2 = 30 minutes       50 minutes for 3 days could be drawn out as 50 times 3 which is 150 minutes  45 times 2 =90 minutes   30 times 4 = 120 minutes. 120 + 150 + 90 = 360   360 divided by 60 = 6  6hrs micheala worked.

N the diagram, and are horizontal lines and is a vertical line segment. If FB : FC = 4 : 3, what are the coordinates of point D?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
<span>Given the diagram, where AB and EF are horizontal lines and CB is a vertical line segment. Given that FB : FC = 4 : 3, From the diagram, the coordinate of A is (-10, -8) and the coordinate of C is (-3. -1). We can also see that the coordinate of B is (-3, -8) (since CB is a vertical line means that B is the same x-value as C and AB is a horizontal line means that B is the same y-value as A) Recall that the coordinate of a point dividing a line segment in the ratio m:n is given by (x1 + m/(m+n) (x2 - x1), y1 + m/(m+n) (y2 - y1)) Thus, since FB : FC = 4 : 3, this means that point F divides the line segment BC in the ratio 4 : 3. Thus, the coordinate of F is given by (-3 + 4/(4+3) (-3 - (-3)), -8 + 4/(4+3) (-1 - (-8))) = (-3 + 4/7 (0), -8 + 4/7 (7)) = (-3, -4). Also, given that FB : FC = 4 : 3, this means that point D divides the line segment AC in the ratio 4 : 3. Thus, the coordinate of D is given by (-10 + 4/(4+3) (-3 - (-10)), -8 + 4/(4+3) (-1 - (-8))) = (-10 + 4/7 (7), -8 + 4/7 (7)) = (-6, -4). Therefore, the coordinates of point D is (-6, -4).</span>

Solve 2x2 – 3x = 12 using the quadratic formula.
icang [17]

Quadratic Formula: (-b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a

2x^2 - 3x = 12

2x^2 - 3x - 12 = 0

a = 2

b = -3

c = -12

(--3 +/- sqrt( (-3)^2 - 4(2)(-12) )) / 2(2)

3 +/- sqrt( 9 + 96 ) / 4

3 +/- sqrt(105) / 4

Answers: \frac{3 + \sqrt{105} }{4}, \frac{3 - \sqrt{105} }{4}

Hope this helps!
