Answer:

4.5 feet of pipe after he cuts it

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply 2 by 36 to get inches then subtract 18 which is 54 inches and then you divide by 12 to turn it into feet and you get 4.5

. If α and β are the roots of
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

18x^2+85x+18 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Given Equation is </em></u>

=> 2x^2+7x-9=0

Comparing it with ax^2+bx+c = 0, we get

=> a = 2, b = 7 and c = -9

So,

Sum of roots = α+β = -\frac{b}{a}

α+β = -7/2

Product of roots = αβ = c/a

αβ = -9/2

<em>Now, Finding the equation whose roots are:</em>

α/β ,β/α

Sum of Roots = \frac{\alpha }{\beta } + \frac{\beta }{\alpha }

Sum of Roots = \frac{\alpha^2+\beta^2  }{\alpha \beta }

Sum of Roots = \frac{(\alpha+\beta )^2-2\alpha\beta   }{\alpha\beta  }

Sum of roots = (\frac{-7}{2} )^2-2(\frac{-9}{2} ) / \frac{-9}{2}

Sum of roots = \frac{49}{4} + 9 /\frac{-9}{2}

Sum of Roots = \frac{49+36}{4} / \frac{-9}{2}

Sum of roots = \frac{85}{4} * \frac{2}{-9}

Sum of roots = S = -\frac{85}{18}

Product of Roots = \frac{\alpha }{\beta } \frac{\beta }{\alpha }

Product of Roots = P = 1

<u><em>The Quadratic Equation is:</em></u>

=> x^2-Sx+P = 0

=> x^2 - (-\frac{85}{18} )x+1 = 0

=> x^2 + \frac{85}{18}x + 1 = 0

=> 18x^2+85x+18 = 0

This is the required quadratic equation.

Answer:

144 people were originally at the party.

Step-by-step explanation:

18 boys is one fifth of the second boys population, so the second population is 18x9 = 162. The original population would be 162-18, which equals 144.

Death Valley headquarters in California is 190 feet below sea level. Badwater, America's lowest point, is 92 feet lower than Dea
olga_2 [115]

Answer: Badwater is 282 feet below the sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Death Valley headquarters in California is 190 feet below sea level. Badwater, America's lowest point, is 92 feet lower than Death Valley headquarters.

To find the depth of Badwater we need to add depth of Death Valley headquarters from sea level to the depth of Badwater from Death valley headquarters.

i.e. The Depth of Badwater from sea-level = 190 feet +92 feet

= 282 feet

Hence, Badwater is 282 feet below the sea level.

On any day, the probability of rain is 0.3. The occurrence of rain on any day is independent of the occurrence of rain on any ot
poizon [28]
<h3>Answer: 0.47178  Step-by-step explanation: Find the probability for each p(X=x) up to 5 using the equation: (x-1)C(r-1)*p^r * q^x-r, where x is number of days, p = .3 (prob of rain). q=.7 (prob of not rain), and r=2 (second day of rain). also C means choose. So p(X=1) = 0 p(X=2) = 1C1 * .3^2 * .7^0 = .09 P(X=3) = 2C1 * .3^2 * .7^1 = .126 P(X=4) = 3C1 * .3^2 * .7^2 = .1323 P(X=5) = 4C1 * .3^2 * .7^3 = .12348 Then add all of them up 0+.09+.126+.1323+.12348 = .47178</h3>
