Answer:

The equation should be solved to find the roots of 2x² + 5x - 12 = 0 is

(2x - 3)(x + 4) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots of an equation is values of x when y is equal to zero

∵ y = 2x² + 5x - 12 is a quadratic equation

∴ The roots of the equations are values of x when y = 0

∵ The factorization of 2x² + 5x - 12 is (2x - 3)(x + 4)

∵ 2x² + 5x - 12 = (2x - 3)(x + 4)

∵ 2x² + 5x - 12 = 0

- Equate the right hand side above by 0

∴ (2x - 3)(x + 4) = 0

- Now equate each bracket by 0 to find the values of x

∵ 2x - 3 = 0

- Add 3 to both sides

∴ 2x = 3

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 1.5

∵ x + 4 = 0

- Subtract 4 from both sides

∴ x = -4

∴ The roots of the equations are -4 and 1.5

The equation should be solved to find the roots of 2x² + 5x - 12 = 0 is

(2x - 3)(x + 4) = 0

Mrs. Garcia’s students were asked to find 220% of 75. Each of the students had a different method.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Colton.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amy: 220% is basically \frac{220}{100} which in decimal form, is 2.20.

Braden: 100% + 100% + 20% = 220%, so it is accurate.

Colton: 100%  + 10% + 10% = 120%, not 220%.

Dainielle: 100% of 75 is 75. Dividing the 100% of 75 by 5 makes a 20%. Adding 100% of 75 twice makes 200%. 200% + 20% = 220%, so it is accurate.

Given the equation y=23x,whats the value of x if y=100
Damm [24]

Answer: 4.3478 or 100/23

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the y values equal to each other since they are the same unknown (x). You end up with 100=23x, solve for x. Move the 23 over to the other side by using division. x=100/23. If you need it in decimal form, 100÷23=4.347826087

A tank in the shape of a hemisphere has a radius of 7 feet. if the liquid that fills the tank has a density of 93 pounds per cub
professor190 [17]

The total weight of the liquid that filled the hemispheric tank to the nearest full pounds is 66775 pounds.

<h3>What is the volume of an hemisphere?</h3>

An hemisphere is half of a sphere. Therefore,

volume = 2 / 3 πr³

where,

  • r = radius

Therefore,

r = 7 feet

volume = 2 / 3 × 3.14 × 7³

volume = 2 / 3 × 3.14 × 343

volume = 2154.04 / 3

volume = 718.013333333

volume = 718.013

Therefore,

density = mass / volume

93 =  mass / 718.013

mass = 718.013 × 93

mass = 66775.24

mass ≈ 66775 pounds

A coral reef grows
Ksenya-84 [330]
If a coral reef grows at a steady rate every week, then to find how much it grows in 12 weeks, we need to multiply the growth rate by 12 weeks. Also, since we want our answer in centimeters, we can change the growth rate to centimeters. 0.15m = 15cm

15cm * 12 = 180cm

The coral reef will grow 180cm in 12 weeks.
