Answer:

-25ft/second

Step-by-step explanation:

The explaination above is correct, except you forgot that the base is decreasing.  So db/dt should be -1 not 1.  Therefore, it is -35 + 10, equaling -25.

We are given with the rate of change of the base, db/dt equal to 1 ft/ sec and the rate of change of the height of the triangle, dh/dt equal to 2 ft/sec. b is 10 ft and h is 70 ft. Area of triangle is equal to A= 0.5 bh The rate of change of the area is equal to dA/dt = 0.5 b dh/dt + 0.5 h db/dt. Substituting, dA= 0.5*10*2 + 0.5*70 * 1 equal to 45 ft2 / sec.

Write the given roots to quadraatic equation
german

Answer:

It's like solving a quadratic, but in reverse, and in this case you'll arrive at x2+x−12=0

Explanation:

We're going to go "backwards" with this problem - normally we're asked to take a quadratic equation and find the roots. So we'll do what we normally do, but in reverse:

Let's start with the roots:

x=3, x=−4

So let's move the constants over with the x terms to have equations equal to 0:

x−3=0, x+4=0

Now we can set up the equation, as:

(x−3)(x+4)=0

We can now distribute out the 2 quantities:

x2+x−12=0

Which of the following fractions is equivalent to -84/-90 in the least common terms?
abruzzese [7]
Answer: 14/15

This is because to get to 14/15 you must divide by 6 but when getting to 42/45 you must divide 2. Therefore 14/15 is your answer because the problem went to the most reduced fraction.
