Linda is buying boxes of ice cream sandwiches for her class party. She has to decide how many boxes she should purchase. A formu

la for this scenario is: Z=ax/y where z=number of boxes, a= number of bars each student will eat, x= number of students at the party, y= number of ice cream bars per box.
Linda has 15 students in her class, and she wants each student to have 2 ice cream sandwiches. If there are 10 sandwiches in a box, how many boxes should Linda buy?

ALGEBRAIC PROOF!!!! PLS HELP!!! The area of a rectangular blanket is 20 square feet. The blanket's length is (2x + 1) ft and the
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Length: 5 ft; width: 4 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

A = LW     formula for area of rectangle

(2x + 1)(2x) = 20      substitute length, width, and area into formula

4x² + 2x - 20 = 0      use the distributive property to multiply out left side

2x² + x - 10 = 0         divide both sides of equation by 2

(2x + 5)(x - 2) = 0        factor out trinomial

2x + 5 = 0  or  x - 2 = 0        use zero product rule to solve for x

2x = -5  or x = 2       subtract 5 from both sides; add 2 to both sides

x = -5/2  or  x = 2

We discard x = -5/2 since it would give negative length and width, and the length and width cannot be negative.

Length: 2x + 1 = 2(2) + 1 = 5

Width: 2x = 2(2) = 4

Length: 5 ft; width: 4 ft.

A projectile is shot into the air following the path,h(x) = - 5t2 + 20t + 3. At what time will it reach a maximum height? t = 1
kramer

Answer:

t = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that this expression for the projectile's path is that of a quadratic function with negative leading term. The graph of it therefore consists of a parabola with the branches pointing down (due to he negative leading coefficient). Therefore, the maximum of such parabola will reside at its vertex.

Recall that the formula for the position of the vertex in a general parabolic function of the form: y(x)=ax^2+bx+c, is given by the expression: x_{vertex}=-\frac{b}{2a}

In our case, the variable "x" is in fact "t", the leading coefficient (a) is -5, and the coefficient for the linear term (b) is 20.

Therefore, the maximum of the path will be when t=-\frac{20}{2(-5)} =\frac{20}{10} =2
