Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

MQ : MN = 5:6

MP : MO = 5:6

MQ/MN = 5/6

Hence, MP/MO = 5/6

(5+x)/(6+(18/5)) = 5/6

5+x = (5/6)(48/5)

5+x = 8

x = 3

Drake needs to drill holes in a wooden plank. The holes will have a diameter of 0.5 millimeters, with an error allowance of 0.05

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

|x − 0.5| = 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Here x represents the diameter,

Since, an error of 0.05 millimeters is allowance in diameter,

Thus, the maximum acceptable diameter = x + 0.05,

And, the minimum acceptable diameter = x - 0.05

According to the question,

The holes will have a diameter of 0.5 millimeters,

Thus, x - 0.05 < 0.5 and 0.5 < x + 0.05

⇒ x - 0.5 < 0.05 and x - 0.5 > - 0.05

⇒ x - 0.5 < 0.05 and -(x -0.5) < 0.05

⇒ |x-0.5| < 0.05

⇒ Option D is correct.

Can someone help me with factoring by grouping

Wittaler [7]

Factor : x^2+3x-10

Answer = (x - 2)(x + 5)

Explanation:

Y = x^2 + 3x - 10.

Find 2 numbers knowing sum (3) and product (-10).

Factor pairs of (-10) -> (-1, 10)(-2, 5). This sum is 3 = b. The 2 numbers are: -2 and 5.

y = (x - 2)(x + 5).
