Answer:
The weight of the turkey is related linearly to the time taken to cook it, however, they are not proportional to each other.
Explanation:
1- Direct proportional means that when the weight of the turkey increases, the time required to cook it increase with the same amount, and vice versa
2- Inverse proportional means that when the weight of the turkey increases, the time required to cook it decrease, and vice versa
2- No proportionality relation means that the two are not related to each other.
Now, for the given problem, we are given that:
i. 10lb turkey takes 3 hours to cook
ii. an additional 12 minutes is added for every extra 1lb of turkey
Therefore:
If we have 10lb turkey ......> time required = 3 hr
If we have 11lb turkey .......> time required = 3 hr + 12 min
If we have 12lb turkey .......> time required = 3 hr + 12 min + 12 min
If we have 13lb turkey .......> time required = 3 hr + 12 min + 12 min + 12 min
Noticing the pattern, we can find that:
time required to cook the turkey increases as the weight of the turkey increases but not at the same rate.
This means that when the weight of the turkey is doubled, the time increases, however, it is not doubled.
This means that the weight of the turkey is related linearly to the time taken to cook it, however, they are not proportional to each other.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
You did not post the options, but i will try to answer this in a general way.
Because we have two solutions, i know that we are talking about quadratic equations, of the form of:
0 = a*x^2 + b*x + c.
There are two easy ways to see if the solutions of this equation are real or not.
1) look at the graph, if the graph touches the x-axis, then we have real solutions (if the graph does not touch the x-axis, we have complex solutions).
2) look at the determinant.
The determinant of a quadratic equation is:
D = b^2 - 4*a*c.
if D > 0, we have two real solutions.
if D = 0, we have one real solution (or two real solutions that are equal)
if D < 0, we have two complex solutions.
-10/-16 could be an answer or multiply the same number up and down but the number must be negative
Add numbers with the same amount of variables
-x^2 + (-7x^2) = -8x^2
– 28x (+ 14x )= -14x
7 (+ 8) = 15
-18x² - 14x + 15 is your answer
hope this helps
Actually I think it may be C
