Tom's age is 5 more than twice Dic's age.

1 answer:

4 0

If we break the answer down, we can solve this pretty easily.
We can represent Dic's age with x.
Tom's age is 5 MORE (+5) than TWICE (2x) Dic's age (x)
Therefore, our answer is 5+2x (Five more than twice Dic's age)

The correct answer is C: 5+2x

Explain why the quadratic relation y=2x^2+3x+5 would have no zeros

alex41 [277]

Complete the square to rewrite the quadratic:

2 x² + 3 x + 5 = 2 (x² + 3/2 x) + 5

... = 2 (x² + 3/2 x + 9/16 - 9/16) + 5

... = 2 (x² + 3/2 x + (3/4)²) + 5 - 9/8

... = 2 (x + 3/4)² + 31/8

Any real number squared becomes non-negative, so the quadratic expression has a minimum value of 31/8, which is greater than 0, and so there are no (real) x for which y = 0.

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The ratio of 2 batches of recipe is 6:2. Which is equivalent to 3:1 because if we multiply the ratio with same number it would give us equivalent ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

When mix 3 teaspoon of Yellow water with 1 teaspoon of red water, we get ratio as 3:1

If we use 2 batches of recipe, the ratio is multiplied twice.

That's ratio of yellow water to red water is 3*2 :1*2 , which gives 6:2

But, if we simplify the ratio, by dividing both by common factor, we would get 3:1

That's $\frac{6}{2} :\frac{2}{2}$ simplified to 3:1
