So to help with the first one
2 / x = 5
multiply the x on both sides
2 = 5x
divide by 5 to isolate the x
2/5 = x
For the second one
We will use the diamond to help us find the common factor
\ 1 /
\ /
\ /
2 / \ 4
/ 3 \
/ \
1) the product
2) and 4) the two numbers
and 3) is sum
10 is the product and -7 is the sum
so what two numbers (factors of 10)
will equal -7 when added
so we have these numbers that will equal the product of +10 and we will need to find the ones that will equal -7 as the sum
10*1, 2*5, -1*-10, -2*-5
if we add the two numbers we will find respectively
11, 7, -11, -7
As you can see that -2 + -5 = +10 and -2+-5= +10
So we have found the two numbers
now before we factor the expression looks like
( x + a) (x + b)
and when factored looks like
x^2 + (a+b)x + (a*b)
Now we can plug in the numbers and solve to see if -2 and -5 are right
(x + -2) (x + -5)
we will factor it
x^2 +-5x + -2x + 10
x^2 + -7x + 10
so a = -2 and b = -5
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
V = 3617.28 m^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cone
V = 1/3 πr^2h
Where r = 24/2 = 12 m
h = 24 m
Plug in
V = 1/3 (3.14) (12^2)(24)
V = 3617.28 m^3
Answer:
1350m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the distance ran by Denise, Farah and Elaine be D, F and E meters respectively.
From the given information,
D= ⅔(E +F) -----(1)
E= ½(D +F) -----(2)
Let's get rid of the fraction so the equations are much easier to work with.
From (1):
3D= 2(E +F) <em>(Multiply both sides by 3)</em>
3D= 2E +2F -----(3) <em>(</em><em>Expand</em><em>)</em>
From (2):
2E= D +F -----(4)
Substitute (4) into (3):
3D= D +F +2F
3D -D= 3F
2D= 3F
Given that Farah ran 360m, F= 360.
2D= 3(360)
2D= 1080
D= 1080 ÷2
D= 540
2E= D +F
2E= 540 +360
2E= 900
E= 900 ÷2
E= 450
Total distance the 3 girls ran
= D +F +E
= 540 +360 +450
= 1350m
Alternatively, you could start by substituting F= 360 to equations (1) and (2).
159 seconds. The 1st two slices of bread will take 60 seconds to toast. 20 second to put in and out. And 6 seconds to turn them over. The 3rd piece will take 60 seconds to toast, 10 seconds to put in and out, and 3 seconds to turn over. 86 seconds + 73 seconds= 159
Answer:
3/20
Step-by-step explanation:
.75 - .6 = .15
put .15 over 100 then simplify by 5 =3/20
