A; b; c; d = first; second; third; fourth shelf
a + b + c + d = 250 cm
b = 2a + 18
c = a - 12
d = a + 4
in terms of a, plug all equations into original
a + (2a + 18) + (a - 12) + (a +4) = 250
5a + 10 = 250
5a = 240
a = 48
b = 2(48) + 18
b = 96 + 18
b = 114 cm/1.14 m

If (x+1)(x+4) -(x-2)=0 what is the value of x? <br> A: -1<br> B: - 1/4<br> C: 0 <br> D:1/4<br> E: 1
ki77a [65]
(x+1)(x-4)-(x-2) = 0
x²-4x+x-4-x+2 = 0
x²-4x-2 = 0
/\ = (-4)² - 4*1*(-2)
/\ = 16 + 8
/\ = 24
x = (-(-4)+/- \/24) / 2
x = (4+/-\/4*6)/2
x = (4+/-2\/6)/2
x = 2+/-\/6
x' = 2+\/6
x" = 2-\/6

Maria is using a coordinate plane with the axes labeled only with integers. She says that the point (−0.5, 2) cannot be plotted
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Integers ={Positive Natuaral Number +Natural numbers having negative sign behind it+Zero}

      ={------,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,..........}

→Points marked on the X and Y axis on the Coordinate Plane=Integers only

→Point to be marked on the coordinate plane =(-0.5,2)

→As, points on both X and Y axis are integers only.To mark, -0.5 , mark a line between , 0 and -1,that will be ,-0.5.

→You can mark , any terminating decimal on the number line, which is marked with integers only.

→Terminating decimals are those decimals having 2^a ,\text{or}5^b, \text{or} 2^a \times 5^b in the denominator of a fraction.

So, to plot any terminating Decimal on the coordinate plane, you have to use property of Rational Numbers ,which is, you can find infinite number of terminating Decimal between two terminating Decimal.

→Mark -0.5 between 0 and -1 on the X axis.Similarly, mark integer 2 on the Y axis.Draw a line parallel to Y axis ,passing from (-0.5,0) and line parallel to X axis passing through (0,2).The intersection of these two lines will be required point (-0.5,2).
