Answer:
It will take about half an hour more for maria to finish his/her project than Juan.
Step-by-step explanation:
9/10 > 2/6
=> 54/60 > 20/60
=> 34/60
Therefore, it will take about half an hour more for maria to finish his/her project than Juan.
Hoped this helped.
Answer:
33 1/3 L of the 40% solution, 16 2/3 L of the 25% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up two equations...
Let x represent the number of Liters of the 40% solution
Let y represent the number of Liters of the 25% solution
We need 50 liters total, so
x + y = 50
and we need the 50 L to be 35% solution, so
0.4x = 0.25y = 0.35(50)
Solve the first equation for one variable...
x = 50 - y (subtract y from both sides in equation 1)
Now substitute that value into the second equation...
0.4(50 - y) + 0.25y = 17.5 (x becomes 50 - y, 0.35(50) = 17.5)
Now solve for y...
20 - 0.4y + 0.25y = 17.5
-0.15y = -2.5
y = 16.66666667
y = 16 2/3 L
So we need to plug that into the first equation to find 'x'
x + 16 2/3 = 50
x = 50 - 16 2/3
x = 33 1/3
Answer:
x = 3 ±sqrt(6)
Step-by-step explanation:
6(x-3)^2-26 = 10
Add 26 to each side
6(x-3)^2-26+26 = 10+26
6(x-3)^2 = 36
Divide by 6
6/6(x-3)^2 = 36/6
(x-3)^2 = 6
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x-3)^2) = ±sqrt(6)
x-3 = ±sqrt(6)
Add 3 to each side
x-3+3 =3 ±sqrt(6)
x = 3 ±sqrt(6)
Answer:
-0.5 is not a solution
2 is a solution
Step-by-step explanation:
To check if something is a solution of the equation, you need to substitute the value in place of the variable
15 + 2y = -12 - 4y
15 + 2(-0.5) = -12 - 4(-0.5)
15 - 1 = -12 + 2
14 ≠ -10 ∴ -0.5 is not a solution
5 - 2(3x + 5) = 3 - 10x
5 - 2[3(2) + 5] = 3 - 10(2)
5 - 2(6 + 5) = 3 - 10(2)
5 - 12 - 10 = 3 - 120
-17 = -17 ∴ 2 is a solution
