Answer: B, 1 mile / 5280 ft.

Step-by-step explanation: If you need to convert feet to miles the unit multiplier (ratio) that you use should have miles on top and feet on the bottom so that the feet cancel when you multiply, leaving miles as the unit. B is the only answer that has miles on top and feet on the bottom as well as the correct amounts (1 mile and 5280 ft).

The line $y = 3$ intersects the graph of $y = 4x^2 + x - 1$ at the points $A$ and $B$. The distance between $A$ and $B$ can be w

raketka [301]

Answer:

61

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the points $A$ and $B$ .

We know that the $y$ -coordinates of both are $3$ .

So let's first solve:

$3=4x^2+x-1$

Subtract 3 on both sides:

$0=4x^2+x-1-3$

Simplify:

$0=4x^2+x-4$

I'm going to use the quadratic formula, $x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ , to solve.

We must first compare to the quadratic equation, $ax^2+bx+c=0$ .

$a=4$

$b=1$

$c=-4$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1^2-4(4)(-4)}}{2(4)}$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1+64}}{8}$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{65}}{8}$

Since the distance between the points $A$ and $B$ is horizontal. We know this because they share the same $y-coordinate$ .This means we just need to find the positive difference between the $x$ -values we found for the points of $A$ and $B$ .

So that is, the distance between $A$ and $B$ is:

$\frac{-1+\sqrt{65}}{8}-\frac{-1-\sqrt{65}}{8}$

$\frac{-1+\sqrt{65}+1+\sqrt{65}}{8}$

$\frac{2\sqrt{65}}{8}$

$\frac{\sqrt{65}}{4}$

If we compare this to $\frac{\sqrt{m}}{n}$ , we should see that:

$m=65 \text{ and } n=4$ .

So $m-n=65-4=61$ .

TJ's Cat Food plans to use tins that are the shape of cylinders. Find the height of the tin, if its bottom diameter is 12 cm and

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

6.69 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Diameter= 12cm

Radius= 6cm

Volume= 757.36cm^3

The expression for the volume of a cylinder is

V= πr^2h

Substitute

757.36= 3.142*6^2*h

757.36=113.112h

h= 757.36/113.112

h= 6.69 cm
