Solution:
2/3=0.66
3/6=0.5
5/9=0.55
0.66+0.5+0.55=1.71
We are asked to determine the correct factorization of the given trinomial which is 5x² - 5x -100. The solution to this problem is shown below:
5x² - 5x - 100 let the problem equal to zero such as:
5x² - 5x - 100 = 0 , factor out 5 from the given trinomial
5(x²-x-20) = 0
5 (x-5)(x+4) = 0
The correct factor is 5(x-5)(x+4).
9-5=4 Therefore f=4
Hope this helps
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
Volume of a cylinder = pi * r^2 * h
Volume of a cone = 1/3 * pi * r^2 * h
Total Height = 47
Height of the cone = 12
Height of the cylinder = 35
If the top half is filled with sand, then:
volume (sand) = pi * 4^2 * 36
volume (cone) = 1/3 * pi * 4^2 * 12
Total volume = 1960.353816 cubic millimeters
353816 / (10 * pi) = 62.4 seconds.
It will take 62.4 seconds until all of the sand has dripped to the bottom of the hourglass.
