Answer:
x = 2 or 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
-13/4 -x= 1/2x -1
Collect like terms
-13/4+1=1/2x+x
Using LCM
(-13+4)/4=(1+2x²)/2x
9/4=(1+2x²)/2x
Cross multiply
9(2x)=4(1+2x²)
18x=4+8x²
Turn into quadratic and solve
8x²-18x+4
Using formulae method
-b±(√b²-4ac)/2a
Where a=8, b= -18 and c=4
(-(-18)±(√(-18)²-4(8)(4))/2(8)
(18±(√324-128))/16
(18±√196)/16
(18±14)/16
(18+14)/16 or (18-14)/16
32/16 or 4/16
2 or 1/4
Answer: depending on the size of the room and what kind of bus
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
circular merry-go-round that has a diameter of 15 feet.
Find: How much trim does he need to buy to put around the edge of the merry-go-round?
We need to find the circumference of the merry-go-round to get the measurement of the trim needed.
Circumference = π d
π = 3.14
d = diameter = 15 feet
Circumference = 3.14 * 15 feet
Circumference = 47.10 feet.
Mr. Osterhout needs to buy 47.10 feet of trim to put around the circular merry-go-round.
