The value of x is 5/8.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Given,

  • The lines PQ and RS are parallel to each other.
  • slope of PQ= x-1/4
  • slope of RS = 3/8

The slopes of parallel lines are equal.

slope of PQ = slope of RS

⇒ x-1/4 = 3/8

⇒ (4x-1)/4 = 3/8

⇒ 8(4x-1) = 4(3)

⇒ 32x-8 = 12

⇒ 32x = 20

x = 20/32

x = 5/8

If Michelle walked 5 meters, how many inches did she walk?
aleksklad [387]
 <span>To convert from meters to feet ( m to f ) is a simple conversion. You can use 1 m = 3.28 ft or 1 m = 39.37 inches and just multiply. But this converter is designed to convert an entry in meters into both feet and inches. So the answer is D.: 196.85 inches.</span>

A man can take a same time to row 13km downstream and 7km upstream.His speed in still water is 5km/hr.The speed of stream is
vekshin1

Answer:

0.6 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed downstream: 13/5= 2.6 km/hr

Speed upstream: 7/5= 1.4 km/hr

Therefore, Velocity of current is: 1/2 (2.6-1.4) km/hr = 1/2(1.2) km/hr

Find the solutions of the quadratic equation 14x^2+9x+10=014x
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Option B. x=-\frac{9}{28}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{479}}{28}i

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

14x^{2}+9x+10=0

so

a=14\\b=9\\c=10

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{-9(+/-)\sqrt{9^{2}-4(14)(10)}} {2(14)}

x=\frac{-9(+/-)\sqrt{-479}} {28}

Remember that

i=\sqrt{-1}

substitute

x=\frac{-9(+/-)\sqrt{479}i} {28}  

x=-\frac{9}{28}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{479}}{28}i
