Plug in the values of p and q where you see them in the equation:
-(2+4)2 / (-6) - Distribute the -1
(-2-4)2 / (-6) - Distribute the 2
(-4-8) / (-6) - Subtract what's inside the parenthesis
(-12) / (-6) - Divide
The answer is 2
Answer:
0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
6 pints.
2 pints in a quart
x(t) = 20t
y(t) = 40t - 5t^2
Since we are only interested in comparing the two at time t = 5 seconds, we plug in 5 everywhere we see the variable t and then compare x and y
x(5) = 20(5) becomes x(5) = 100
y(5) = 40(5) - 5(5)^2 becomes y(5) = 200 - 125 and then y(5) = 75
The ratio of y to x can be expressed as: y/x, so we can say the ratio is equal to 75/100 or 0.75
Answer: 0.75
