- C) x = plus/minus 11
- B) No real solutions
- C) Two solutions
- A) One solution
- The value <u> 18 </u> goes in the first blank. The value <u> 17 </u> goes in the second blank.
========================================================
Explanations:
- Note how (11)^2 = (11)*(11) = 121 and also (-11)^2 = (-11)*(-11) = 121. The two negatives multiply to a positive. So that's why the solution is x = plus/minus 11. The plus minus breaks down into the two equations x = 11 or x = -11.
- There are no real solutions here because the left hand side can never be negative, no matter what real number you pick for x. As mentioned in problem 1, squaring -11 leads to a positive number 121. The same idea applies here as well.
- The two solutions are x = 0 and x = -2. We set each factor equal to zero through the zero product property. Then we solve each equation for x. The x+2 = 0 leads to x = -2.
- We use the zero product property here as well. We have a repeated factor, so we're only solving one equation and that is x-3 = 0 which leads to x = 3. The only root is x = 3.
- Apply the FOIL rule on (x+1)(x+17) to end up with x^2+17x+1x+17 which simplifies fully to x^2+18x+17. The middle x coefficient is 18, while the constant term is 17.
To divide by a fraction, multiply by the reciprocal of that fraction.
1/3 • 5/1 or 1/3 • 5
Calculate the product straight across.
1/3 • 5/1 = 5/3
Length should be 2/5yd:
18inch*1yd/36inch=.5yd=> depth
volume= 2(length*width+lenght*depth+depth*width)
let l to be the length.
volume= 2(l*2+2(.5)+.5*2)
volume=5l+2
4=5l+2
2=5l
l=2/5
Answer:
Gabe needs 20 liters of the 40% solution.
He also needs 40 liters of the 70% solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation:
acid + acid = acid
0.40x + 0.70(60-x) = 0.60*60
40x + 70*60 - 70x = 60*60
-30x = -10*60
x = 20 liters
Gabe needs 20 liters of the 40% solution.
He also needs 40 liters of the 70% solution.
