Answer:
x=5 x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 8x + 15 = 0
Factor
What 2 numbers multiply to 15 and add to -8
-5*-3 = 15
-5-3 = -8
(x-5)(x-3) =0
Using the zero product property
x-5 =0 x-3 =0
x=5 x=3
Once the cake is removed from the oven, it has been exposed to the room temperature of 70°F. After 10 minutes, the cake's temperature decreased to 200°F, which is 150°F cooler than it initially was (350°F). As for the what is asked, 90°F is 260°F cooler than its original temperature (350°F).
This problem can be expressed in a ratio:
10mins:150<span>°F = N:260</span><span>°F
where N is how long it will take for</span><span> cake to cool to 90°F
</span>150<span>°FxN=10x260
</span>150N=2600
N=2600/150
N=17.33
N<span>≈20 minutes
Thus, it takes approximately 20 minutes </span><span>for the cake to cool to 90°F</span>
Answer is D) 2/3 because you divide the whole equation by 3 scene as 2cups=3gal. In order to get one gal, you need to divide the right side by 3 to make one and what you do to one side of an equation, you must do to the other.
Sorry I don't know that question.
