Solve for x. 10x2 – 20x – 8 = –5x2 – 6x

1 answer:

7 0

If that says 10x^2 and -5x^2 then the answer is x= -2/5, x=4/3
First get all the variables on one side, so you have 15x^2-14x-8=0. Use the abc factoring method and get factors 6 and -20.Since a is not one, you must group the factors like this (15x^2-20x)(6x-8). Factor those out to get 5x(3x-4)+2(3x-4). Now you put those together to get (5x+2)(3x-4). Set them equal to zero and solve for x. 5x+2=0 ends up being x=-2/5 and 3x-4=0 ends up being x=4/3. Hope that helps!

Suppose you are determining the growth rate of two species of plants. Species A ls 25 cm tall and grows 3 cm per month. Species

exis [7]

Answer: Last Option

$H (m) = 25 + 3m\\H (m) = 10 + 8m$

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial height of the plant of species A is 25 cm and grows 3 centimeters per month.

If m represents the number of months elapsed then the equation for the height of the plant of species A is:

$H (m) = 25 + 3m$

For species B the initial height is 10 cm and it grows 8 cm each month

If m represents the number of months elapsed then the equation for the height of the plant of species B is:

$H (m) = 10 + 8m$

Finally, the system of equations is:

$H (m) = 25 + 3m\\H (m) = 10 + 8m$

The answer is the last option

What are the solutions of the compound inequality 2d + 3 ≤ –11 or 3d – 9 > 15?

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

A. d ≤ –7 or d > 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 2d + 3 ≤ –11 or 3d – 9 > 15.

To find : What are the solutions of the compound inequality .

Solution : We have given 2d + 3 ≤ –11 or 3d – 9 > 15.

For 2d + 3 ≤ –11

On subtracting both sides by 3

2d ≤ –11 - 3 .

2d ≤ –14.

On dividing both sides by 2 .

d ≤ –7.

For 3d – 9 > 15.

On adding both sides by 9.

3d > 15 + 9 .

3d > 24 .

On dividing both sides by 3 .

d > 8 .

So, A. d ≤ –7 or d > 8.

Therefore, A. d ≤ –7 or d > 8.

Answer Please???? Finn is baking cakes for a party. The number of cups of sugar Finn needs is proportional to the number of cake

Natali [406]

Answer:

Hello there!

The answer to your question is :

<em>C: Finn needs 6 cups of sugar for 4 cakes.</em>

<em>D: Finn needs 1 1/2 cups of sugar for 1 cak</em>e.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph clearly shows ( sides cups of sugar) (bottom number of cakes)

For sugar you need 6 cups to make 4 cakes

For sugar on the second question you need 1 1/2 cups of sugar to make 1 cake

Multiply 1 1/2 times 6 then divide and your answer is 4. That's 4 cakes out of 6 cups of sugar out of the original cups of sugar ( 1 1/2)

This is the confirmed answer I took the quiz and got 100%

Hopes this helps you!
