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=-2\\x=2

(You only need to give one solution)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following equation

(x^2+1)^2-5x^2-5=0

First, we need to foil out the parenthesis

x^4+2x^2+1-5x^2-5=0

Now we can combine the like terms

x^4-3x^2-4=0

Now, we need to factor this equation.

To factor this, we need to find a set of numbers that add together to get -3 and multiply to give us -4.

The pair of numbers that would do this would be 1 and -4.

This means that our factored form would be

(x^2-4)(x^2+1)=0

As the first binomial is a difference of squares, it can be factored futher into

(x^2+1)(x+2)(x-2)=0

Now, we can get our solutions.

The first binomial will produce two complex (Not real) solutions.

x+2=0\\\\x=-2

x-2=0\\\\x=2

So our solutions to this equation are

x=-2\\x=2

Part 1: How's the weather?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Part 1: How's the weather? Investigate the weather forecast in your city.

Record the high and low temperatures that are forecast for the next 7 days in the table below. In the columns titled, Difference," record the change in temperature from the day before. To do this, subtract the previous temperature from the current temperature Be sure to use positive and negative numbers as needed! For example, if yesterday’s temperature was 70 and today’s temperature was 65, the difference is 65 – 70 = -5.

Date

High Temperature

Subtract previous temperature from current temperature

Difference

Low Temperature

Subtract previous temperature from current temperature

Note: The columns for Day One's subtraction and difference cannot be filled in. As this is the first data point, there is no previous temperature to subtract.

Write a mathematical expression using the information from your table to answer the following questions:

What is the mean change in the forecaster high temperatures? Remember, this can be found by averaging the values in the Difference column for the high temperatures. Show your work and steps. If your answer is not an integer, explain what two integers your answer is between.

What is the mean change in the forecaster low temperatures? Remember, this can be found by averaging the values in the Difference column for the low temperatures. If your answer is not an integer, explain what two integers your answer is between.
