He should boil 12.5 gallons of water for 5 cups of oats.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-4)^2=5
(x-4)(x-4)=5
x(x-4)-4(x-4)=5
distribute
x^2-4x-4x+16=5
combine like terms
x^2-8x+16=5
move terms to the left and combine
x^2-8x+11=0
use the quadratic formula and simplify
x=-(-8)+/-2 to the square roots of 5 over 2
separate and solve
x=4+ square root of 5
x=4- square root of 5
ANSWER: x=4+/- square root of 5
Answer:
y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 8 is the equation of a horizontal line, parallel to the x- axis.
Thus a parallel line will also be horizontal.
The equation of a horizontal line is
y = c
where c is the y- coordinates of the points it passes through.
The line passes through (- 6, 12) with y- coordinate of 12, thus
y = 12 ← equation of parallel line
The solution must be larger than 9, because the answer is h=10
