We can factor by grouping. To do so, we multiply the leading coefficient with the constant at the end. In other words, a times c (ax^2 + bx + c).
15*-4 = -60
Now we need to split the b term into two pieces that multiply to -60 and add to 4.
-6 and 10 will work.
Now group one part of b with the 15x^2 and the other part with -4.
(15x^2 + 10x) + (-6x - 4)
Now factor both terms.
5x(3x+2) - 2(3x+2)
3x+2 is one of our factors and 5x-2 is the other.
(3x+2)(5x-2)=0
Now just find the zeros.
3x+2 = 0
3x = -2
x = -2/3
And
5x-2 = 0
5x = 2
x = 2/5
So the answer is x = -2/3 and x = 2/5
The height of the tank must be at least 1 foot, or 12 inches. We know the floor area (which is length x width) must be at least 400 inches. Therefore these minimum dimensions already tell us that the minimum volume is 400 x 12 = 4800 cubic inches. Since we have a maximum of 5000 cubic inches, the volume must be within the range of 4800 - 5000 cubic inches.
We can set the height at exactly 1 ft (or 12 inches). Then we can select length and width that multiply to 400 square inches, for example, L = 40 inches and W = 10 in. This gives us a tank of dimensions 40 x 10 x 12 = 4800 cubic inches, which fits all the criteria.
An adult with a weight of 75 kilograms have an <em>equivalent</em> weight of 165.60 pounds.
<h3>How to convert kilograms to pounds</h3>
Herein we have an application of <em>unit</em> conversions between <em>weight</em> units, from kilograms to pounds. Unit conversions follow this <em>direct proportional</em> formula:
y = k · x
Where:
x - Weight in kilograms
y - Weight in pounds
k - Conversion ratio
If we know that x = 75 kg and k = 2.208 lb/kg, then the weight of the adult in pounds is:
y = (2.208 lb/kg) · (75 kg)
y = 165.6 lb
An adult with a weight of 75 kilograms have an <em>equivalent</em> weight of 165.60 pounds.
