Answer:

5\ shifts

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the number of shifts per day, divide the total number of hours per day the pool is open by each lifeguard's shift.

Convert to an improper fraction first

7\frac{1}{2}\ h=\frac{7*2+1}{2}=\frac{15}{2}\ h  

1\frac{1}{2}\ h=\frac{1*2+1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}\ h  

so

(15/2)/(3/2)=15/3=5\ shifts

Answer:

x = - 20

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{4}  + 8 = 3 \\  \\  \frac{x}{4}  = 3 - 8 \\  \\ \frac{x}{4}  =  - 5 \\  \\ x =  - 5 \times 4 \\  \\ \huge \red { \boxed{ x =  - 20}}

"1.Provide the reasons for the proof.
adelina 88 [10]
Assuming you are given a picture of intersecting lines. 

Switch the reasons for b) and c) 
b) the angles form a linear pair , from the picture, so this is linear pair postulate
C) Then the measures add to 180, because they are supplementary. Defn of supplementary. 
E) you have divided both sides of the equation by 2; or multiplied by 1/2; multiplication property of equality 
F) definition of right angle 
G) definition of perpendicular 

I hope my answer has come to your help. Have a nice day ahead and may God bless you always!

Determine the type and number of solutions of −4x2 − 3x + 7 = 0.
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use the discriminant for this. If the quadratic is -4x^2-3x+7, then

a = -4, b = -3, and c = 7. The formula for finding the discriminant is

D=b^2-4ac which comes from the quadratic formula, but without the square root sign. Filling in:

D=(-3)^2-4(-4)(7) which simplifies down to

D = 9 + 112 so

D = 121. This is a perfect square, so the solutions will be 2 real. Just so you know, you will NEVER have a solution like the one offered in the third choice down. If you have one imaginary root, you will ALWAYS have a second by the conjugate rule.
