120 barrels x 12 quarts per barrel = 1440 total quarts

1440 quarts  /  11 quarts per hour  = 130.91 hours to fill all the barrels

1 day = 24 hours

130.91 hours  /  24 hours  = 5.45 days = 5.5 days

Can anyone help me find the coordinates (?,?) given that the shape is a parallelogram? (15 points)
xxTIMURxx [149]

The missing coordinates of the parallelogram is (m + h, n).

Solution:

Diagonals of the parallelogram bisect each other.

Solve using mid-point formula:

$\text{Midpoint} =\left( \frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right  )

Here x_1=m, y_1=n, x_2=h, y_2=0

              $=\left( \frac{m+h}{2}, \frac{n+0}{2}\right  )

$\text{Midpoint} =\left( \frac{m+h}{2}, \frac{n}{2}\right  )

<u>To find the missing coordinate:</u>

Let the missing coordinates by x and y.

Here x_1=0, y_1=0, x_2=x,  y_2=y

$\text{Midpoint}=\left( \frac{0+x}{2}, \frac{0+y}{2}\right  )

$\left( \frac{m+h}{2}, \frac{n}{2}\right  )=\left( \frac{0+x}{2}, \frac{0+y}{2}\right  )

$\left( \frac{m+h}{2}, \frac{n}{2}\right  )=\left( \frac{x}{2}, \frac{y}{2}\right  )

Now equate the x-coordinate.

$ \frac{m+h}{2}=\frac{x}{2}

Multiply by 2 on both sides of the equation, we get

m + h = x

x = m + h

Now equate the y-coordinate.

$\frac{n}{2} =  \frac{y}{2}

Multiply by 2 on both sides of the equation, we get

n = y

y = n

Hence the missing coordinates of the parallelogram is (m + h, n).

The difference between two numbers is 2 and their product is 224. What are the numbers?
Sati [7]

Let x,y be the two numbers. We have two pieces of information:

x-y=2 (the difference between the two numbers is 2)

xy=224 (their product is 224)

From the first equation, we can deduce x=y+2

If we plug this expression in the second equation, we have

xy = (y+2)y = 224 \iff y^2+2y-224 =0

If you solve this equation with the usual quadratic formula you get the solutions

y=-16,\quad y=14

So, you have the following couple of solutions, recalling that x is 2 more than y:

\begin{cases} x = -14\\y=-16\end{cases},\quad\begin{cases} x = 16\\y=14\end{cases}
