You know ABC is isoceles, so AB = BC and BC = 2.5 cm.
That means that the scale factor is KL/BC = 2
So JL = 2AC = 8 cm
(a) It is leaking 18 liters per minute.
Explanation : From 15 minutes to 20 minutes, your starting point at 15 is 590 liters and at 20 you have exactly 500. Next you have 25 which is now at 410. So it's leaking 90 liters every five minutes, so of course dividing the two (90 ÷ 5) you get 18.
(a)² it increases for about the same time that it would decrease of course.
(b) The vat started at 860 liters before they started draining it.
Explanation : Well, all it takes is just working backwards, add 90 liters to the liters at 15 minutes and deduct five minutes from 15. Do this process until you arrive at 0. It's simple
Answer:
first answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, this is correct because repeating decimals are rational numbers.
Rational numbers can be written by a fraction of integers.
If there is a pattern, it means that this is the division of two integers.
hope this helps
Answer:
- x = 0 or 1
- x = ±i/4
- x = -5 (twice)
Step-by-step explanation:
Factoring is aided by having the equations in standard form. The first step in each case is to put the equations in that form. The zero product property tells you that a product is zero when a factor is zero. The solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero.
1. x^2 -x = 0
x(x -1) = 0 . . . . . x = 0 or 1
__
2. 16x^2 +1 = 0
This is the "difference of squares" ...
(4x)^2 - (i)^2 = 0
(4x -i)(4x +i) = 0 . . . . . x = -i/4 or i/4 (zeros are complex)
__
3. x^2 +10x +25 = 0
(x +5)(x +5) = 0 . . . . . x = -5 with multiplicity 2
