Answer:

x = -1.42

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient of a number x and twelve would be: x/12.

But the problem tells us that seven less than this quotient is 5 times the number. Written as an equation and solving for x this would be:

\frac{x}{12}-7=5x\\\frac{x-84}{12} =5x\\ x-84=(12)(5x)\\x-84=60x\\-84=59x\\-84/59=x\\-1.42 = x

Therefore x = -1.42

A right cylinder ice cream cone has 600 cubic centimeters of ice cream, what is the radius of the cone of the height is 15 centi
choli [55]
The formula for volume is V=Bh where  B is the area of the base. 
plug in what they have given you:
600=B(15) you can divide both sides by 15

40=B    We know that a cylinder's base is a circle so we can use the area f                           formula for a circle to solve for the radius.
40 = pi(r)^2   divide both sides by pi to get the r^2 alone
40/pi=r^2     square root both sides to get rid of the square
you should get
r=3.5 approximately

Find the equation of quadratic function determined from the graph below?
Aleksandr [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercepts are x = -1 and x = 5, so:

y = k (x + 1) (x − 5)

The vertex is (2, -3), so:

-3 = k (2 + 1) (2 − 5)

-3 = -9k

k = 1/3

y = 1/3 (x + 1) (x − 5)

Simplifying:

y = 1/3 (x² − 4x − 5)

y = 1/3 x² − 4/3 x − 5/3
