Answer:

A. Q = 15 °C

B. 0.4 °C

C. Q = 23 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

The following equation models the temperature of Quin's home,

Q = 15 + 0.4t

Where Q is the temperature in degree Celsius and t is the time in minutes

A. What was the temperature when Quinn returned from vacation?

At this time, t = 0 since Quin is just arrived

Q = 15 + 0.4(0)

Q = 15 °C

B. how much does the temperature increase every minute?

0.4(t)

0.4(1)

0.4 °C

The temperature increases by 0.4 centigrade every minute.

C. How much will the temperature increase if Quinn leaves the heat on for 20 minutes

For t = 20 mins

Q = 15 + 0.4(20)

Q = 15 + 8

Q = 23 °C

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, what is the positive solution to the quadratic equation 0 = 2x2 + 3x – 8? Quadratic formula: x

Lynna [10]

ANSWER

1.39

EXPLANATION

The given quadratic equation is

$0 = 2 {x}^{2} + 3x - 8$

This is the same as,

$2 {x}^{2} + 3x - 8 = 0$

Comparing to

$a {x}^{2} + bx + c = 0$

We have

a=2, b=3,c=-8

Using the quadratic formula, the solution is given by:

$x = \frac{ - b \pm \: \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac} }{2a}$

We substitute the values to get,

$x = \frac{ - 3\pm \: \sqrt{ {3}^{2} - 4(2)( - 8)} }{2(2)}$

$x = \frac{ - 3\pm \: \sqrt{ 73} }{4}$

The positive root is

$x = \frac{ - 3 + \: \sqrt{ 73} }{4} = 1.39$

to the nearest hundredth.

Help me with this math problem please

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

$y=8$

$RS=77, ST=31$

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the entire segment RT is the combined lengths of RS and ST. So:

$RT=RS+ST$

We know that RT is 108, RS is (9y+5), and ST is (3y+7). Substitute:

$108=(9y+5)+(3y+7)$

On the right, combine like terms:

$108=(9y+3y)+(5+7)$

Add:

$108=12y+12$

Subtract 12 from both sides. The right cancels:

$96=12y$

Divide both sides by 12:

$y=8$

So, the value of y is 8.

To find RS and ST, substitute 8 for y. So:

$RS=9y+5$

Substitute 8 for y:

$RS=9(8)+5$

Multiply:

$RS=72+5$

Add:

$RS=77$

Do the same for ST:

$ST=3y+7$

Substitute 8 for y:

$ST=3(8)+7$

Multiply:

$ST=24+7$

Add:

$ST=31$

Hi guys can you please help me

marissa [1.9K]

Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding perimiter is simple! You add the L & the W by each other and then times that by 2!

15 + 5 = 20

20 X 2 = 40!
