Answer: the equation is

5x^2 -30x - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation is one in which the highest power of the unknown is 2.

The general form of a quadratic equation is expressed as

ax^2 + bx + c

Where c is a constant and a is the leading coefficient

Assuming we want to write the quadratic equation in x, from the information given, the given roots are 5 and 1 and the leading coefficient is 5. We will just multiply the expression by the leading coefficient.

Therefore, the linear factors of the quadratic will be (x-5) and (x-1)

With the leading coefficient as 5, the equation becomes

5(x-5)(x-1)

= 5(x^2 - x - 5x + 5)

= 5(x^2 - 6x + 5)

= 5x^2 -30x - 25

A theater wants to build movable steps that they can use to go on and off the stage. They want the steps to have enough space in
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

2880 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

We can first split this prism into two rectangular prisms.  The first one, the bottom portion of the steps, will have dimensions 16 in x 20 in x 6 in; this makes the volume

16(20)(6) = 1920 in³

The top part have a width of 8 inches.  This is because the entire width of the bottom is 16; the part from where the top step ends to the other side is 8 inches of it.  This leaves 16-8 = 8 inches for the width.

The length will be 20, just as the length of the entire set of steps is.

The height will be 6; this is because the total height of the steps is 12 inches, and the height of only the bottom step is 6; this leaves 12-6 = 6 steps.

This gives us 8 in x 20 in x 6 in, giving us

8(20)(6) = 960 in³

This makes the total volume

1920+960 = 2880 in³
