Answer:

x=4 or x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x2−9x+20=0

Step 1: Factor left side of equation.

(x−4)(x−5)=0

Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.

x−4=0 or x−5=0

x=4 or x=5

Please help 30 points!!!!!!! Convert 45.25 mL into ft3.

Lorico [155]

This on the web one-way conversion tool converts volume or capacity units from milliliters ( ml ) into cubic feet ( ft 3 , cu ft ) instantly online. 1 milliliter ( ml ) = 0.000035 cubic feet ( ft 3 , cu ft ). How many cubic feet ( ft 3 , cu ft ) are in 1 milliliter ( 1 ml )? How much of volume or capacity from milliliters to cubic feet, ml to ft<sup>3</sup> , cu ft?

hope this helps!

You are situated 300 feet from the base of Tower Glitz Plaza watching an external elevator descend down the side of the building

nordsb [41]

Answer:

18.66 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between you and the elevator is given by:

$h=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

The rate of change for the distance between you and the elevator is given by:

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{dh}{dy}*\frac{dy}{dt}$

$-16=\frac{dh}{dy}*\frac{dy}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dy}=\frac{d}{dy} (\sqrt{x^2+y^2})\\$

Applying the chain rule:

$u=x^2+y^2\\\frac{dh}{dy}=\frac{d\sqrt u}{du} *\frac{du}{dy}\\\frac{dh}{dy}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt u} *2y\\\frac{dh}{dy}=\frac{y}{\sqrt {(x^2+y^2)}}$

Therefore, at x=300 and y = 500, dy/dt is:

$-16=\frac{y}{\sqrt {(x^2+y^2)}}*\frac{dy}{dt}\\-16=\frac{500}{\sqrt {(300^2+500^2)}}*\frac{dy}{dt}\\\frac{dy}{dt}=-18.66\ ft/s$

The elevator is descending at 18.66 ft/s.

Answer:

<em>The fraction of the beads that are red is</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Algebraic Expressions</u>

A bag contains red (r), yellow (y), and blue (b) beads. We are given the following ratios:

r:y = 2:3

y:b = 5:4

We are required to find r:s, where s is the total of beads in the bag, or

s = r + y + b

Thus, we need to calculate:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b} \qquad\qquad [1]$

Knowing that:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}=\frac{2}{3} \qquad\qquad [2]$

$\displaystyle \frac{y}{b}=\frac{5}{4}$

Multiplying the equations above:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}\frac{y}{b}=\frac{2}{3}\frac{5}{4}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{b}=\frac{5}{6} \qquad\qquad [3]$

Dividing [1] by r:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+y/r+b/r}$

Substituting from [2] and [3]:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+3/2+6/5}$

Operating:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{\frac{10+3*5+6*2}{10}}$

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{10+15+12}$

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{37}$

The fraction of the beads that are red is $\mathbf{\frac{10}{37}}$
