Step-by-step explanation:
Use the discramnt formula.
Answer:
6 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
x = # of weeks
15 times 8 times 5 = 1 week,
so 15 times 8 times 5 times x = 3600 is the equation
Solve for x to get x = 6
Answer:
15 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
change -8 2/3 into an improper fraction = -26/3
-4/7v = -26/3
cross-multiply:
3(-4v) = (-26)7
-12v = -182
v = 182/12
v = 15 1/6
The perimeter is 17 the area is 160
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
xy = 300
x + y = 50 Solve for y
y = 50 - x substitute into xy = 300
x(50 - x) = 300 Remove the brackets.
50x - x^2 = 300 Bring the left to the right.
0 = x^2 - 50x + 300
This is a quadratic. It will have 2 solutions.
a=1
b = - 50
c = 300
Put these into the quadratic equation.
It turns out that x has two values -- both plus
x1 = 42.03
x2 = 6.97
x1 + y1 = 50
42.03 + y = 50
y = 50 - 42.03
y = 7,97
(42.03 , 7.97)
====================
x2 + y2 = 50
6.97 + y2 = 50
y2 = 50 - 6.97
y2 = 43.03
(6.97 , 43.03)
