Answer:
2.5
type A/B
Step-by-step explanation:
10/2.5=4
15/6=2.5
18/7.2=2.5
Mass of freight train: 9.98 • 106
= 1057.88 kg
mass of aircraft carrier: 7.3 • 107
= 781.1 kg
difference: 1057.88 - 781.1
= 276.78 kg
= 2.7678 x 10^2
Use this systems of equations to solve:
x = first antifreeze
y = second antifreeze

Isolate y.
x + y = 15
Subtract x from both sides.
y = -x + 15
Substitute y into the other equation.
.2x + .12(-x + 15) = .18(15)
Simplify.
.2x - .12x + 1.8 = 2.7
Subtract 1.8 from both sides.
.08x = .9
Divide both sides by .08
x = 11.25
Substitute x in the equation that we isolated y in.
y = -11.25 + 15
y = 3.75
11.25 L of the first antifreeze and 3.75 L of the second.
Use the given information to write an equation, then solve it.
$1600 = (1 + 1 + 1/2)×(monthly rent) . . . . relationship given in the problem statement
$1600/2.5 = monthly rent = $640 . . . . divide by the coefficient of monthly rent
You have shared the situation (problem), except for the directions: What are you supposed to do here? I can only make a educated guesses. See below:
Note that if <span>ax^2+bx+5=0 then it appears that c = 5 (a rational number).
Note that for simplicity's sake, we need to assume that the "two distinct zeros" are real numbers, not imaginary or complex numbers. If this is the case, then the discriminant, b^2 - 4(a)(c), must be positive. Since c = 5,
b^2 - 4(a)(5) > 0, or b^2 - 20a > 0.
Note that if the quadratic has two distinct zeros, which we'll call "d" and "e," then
(x-d) and (x-e) are factors of ax^2 + bx + 5 = 0, and that because of this fact,
- b plus sqrt( b^2 - 20a )
d = ------------------------------------
2a
and
</span> - b minus sqrt( b^2 - 20a )
e = ------------------------------------
2a
Some (or perhaps all) of these facts may help us find the values of "a" and "b." Before going into that, however, I'm asking you to share the rest of the problem statement. What, specificallyi, were you asked to do here?
