Similar means that the student's desk and the teacher's desk is proportional. 
\frac{length of teacher's desk}{width of teacher's desk} = \frac{length of student's desk}{width of student's desk}
\frac{50}{x} = \frac{30}{18}
Simplify: \frac{50}{x} = \frac{5}{3}
Solve for x. 
50*3=5*x
x=30. in.

To estimate the quotient 98.3 divides by 52.6 Brady used compatible numbers 100 dived by 5 =20. Is his estimate reasonable ? Exp
marissa [1.9K]
No, not reasonable.

98.3 divides by 52.6

Brady used compatible numbers 100 divided by 5 =20

He should've used 100 divided by 50 = 2

use the graphing calculator to graph the quadratic function y = x2 − 5x − 36. Which value is a solution of 0 = x2 − 5x − 36?
daser333 [38]

The solutions of the quadratic equation x² - 5x - 36 = 0 are -4 and 9.

The graph is attached below.

  • We are given a quadratic function.
  • A polynomial equation of degree two in one variable is a quadratic equation.
  • The function given to us is :
  • y = x² - 5x - 36
  • We need to find the solution of the quadratic function.
  • To find the roots, let y = 0.
  • x² - 5x - 36 = 0
  • Use the quadratic formula.
  • In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a formula that gives the solution(s) to a quadratic equation.
  • x = [-b±√b²-4ac]/2a
  • x = [-(-5) ± √25 - 4(1)(-36)]/2(1)
  • x = (5 ± √25 + 144)/2
  • x = (5 ± √169)/2
  • x = (5 ± 13)/2
  • x = 9 or x = -4

PLEASE HELP!!<br><br> what is the explicit formula for this sequence -7, -4, -1, 2, 5
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The explicit formula for the given expression is a_n=-10+3n.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is

-7, -4, -1, 2, 5

The difference between two consecutive terms is same, therefore the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

The first term of the given AP is -7 and the common difference is

-4-(-7)=-4+7=3

The explicit formula for an AP is

a_n=a+(n-1)d

Where, a is first term, d is common difference and n is number of terms.

Substitute a=-7 and d=3 in the above equation.

a_n=-7+(n-1)3

a_n=-7+3n-3

a_n=-10+3n

Therefore the explicit formula for the given expression is a_n=-10+3n.
