The distance a spring stretches varies directly as the amount of weight that is hanging on it. A weight of 2.5 pounds stretches

a spring 18 inches. Find the stretch of the spring when a weight of 6.4 pounds is hanging on it.

2.5 / 18 = 6.4 / x
cross multiply
(2.5)(x) = (18)(6.4)
2.5x = 115.2
x = 115.2 / 2.5
x = 46.08 inches

You use a garden hose to fill a wading pool. If the water level rises 16 centimeters every 7 minutes
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Rise=16, run=7. Slope is rise/run, and therefore is 16/7. The run is considered to be the x coordinate. Since the x coordinate on the point is 21, we know it has moved 3 exact points away from the origin (21/7=3). We can use this movement of 3 exact points to determine the y coordinate as well. Since the rise (y) is 16 for every exact point on a graph, we know the graph has risen 48 units (16x3=48). So, the point ends up being (21,48). The rate of change is 16cm per 7 minutes, or 2.28cm/minute. The equation is Y=(16/7)X (no y intercept because the graph starts at the origin). The equation gives you the y value of 48 when x is equal to 21.

Solve by factoring 6p^2 =21p-6
uysha [10]

Given,

The expression is:

6p^2=21p-6

By using the middle term splitting method,

\begin{gathered} 6p^2-21p+6=0 \\ 2p^2-7p+2=0 \\ (x-(\frac{7+\sqrt{33}}{4}))(x+\frac{7+33}{4})=0 \end{gathered}

Hence, the factor is (x-(7+sqrt(33)/4)) (x+(7+sqrt(33)/4)).
