It would be 5 months because if you do 75 + 20x = 35x
15x = 75
----- ------
15 15
x = 5

Given that 3+√5/4−√5 = a + b√5, find the values of “a” and “b”<br>URGENT PLZ ANSWER!

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

√(5/4)= √5/ √4 =√5/2 = (1/2)√5

3+√5/4−√5 = 3+(1/2)√5 so : a=3 and b= 1/2

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 20 ft3 /min and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shap

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The height of the pile is increasing at the rate of $\mathbf{ \dfrac{20}{56.25 \pi} \ \ \ \ \ ft/min}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 20 ft³ /min

i.e $\dfrac{dV}{dt}= 20 \ ft^3/min$

we know that radius r is always twice the diameter d

i.e d = 2r

Given that :

the shape of a cone whose base diameter and height are always equal.

then d = h = 2r

h = 2r

r = h/2

The volume of a cone can be given by the formula:

$V = \dfrac{\pi r^2 h}{3}$

$V = \dfrac{\pi (h/2)^2 h}{3}$

$V = \dfrac{1}{12} \pi h^3$

$V = \dfrac{ \pi h^3}{12}$

Taking the differentiation of volume V with respect to time t; we have:

$\dfrac{dV}{dt }= (\dfrac{d}{dh}(\dfrac{\pi h^3}{12})) \times \dfrac{dh}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt }= (\dfrac{\pi h^2}{4} ) \times \dfrac{dh}{dt}$

we know that:

$\dfrac{dV}{dt}= 20 \ ft^3/min$

So;we have:

$20= (\dfrac{\pi (15)^2}{4} ) \times \dfrac{dh}{dt}$

$20= 56.25 \pi \times \dfrac{dh}{dt}$

$\mathbf{\dfrac{dh}{dt}= \dfrac{20}{56.25 \pi} \ \ \ \ \ ft/min}$

The height of the pile is increasing at the rate of $\mathbf{ \dfrac{20}{56.25 \pi} \ \ \ \ \ ft/min}$

Multiply.Express your answer in standard form.(3 points)(x² -4x + 3)(-3x²+ 7x –1)

bija089 [108]

Answer:

-3x^{4} + 19x^{3} - 38x^{2} + 25x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) distribute x² into (-3x² + 7x - 1) to get: -3x^{4} + 7x³ - x²

2) distribute -4x into (-3x² + 7x - 1) to get: 12x³ - 28x + 4x

3) distribute 3 into (-3x² + 7x - 1) to get: -9x² + 21x - 3

4) combine all the answers together into one equation:

-3x^{4} + 7x³ - x² + 12x³ - 28x² + 4x - 9x² + 21x - 3

5) combine like terms:

7x³ + 12x³ = 19x³

-x² + -28x² + -9x² = -38x²

4x + 21x = 25x

6) combine answers together into one equation:

-3x^{4} + 19x³ - 38x² + 25x - 3
