Answer:

10.8 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

First change everything to inches:

2.75 ft = 33 in

1.5 ft = 18 in

Volume of tank = lwh = (33)(18)(7) = 4158 in³

The tank is 40% full, so only 60% is need to fill it. To find 60%, multiply 4158 by 0.6 = 2494.8 in³

Now find out how much 2494.8 in³ is in gallons:

231 in³ = 1 gallon

1 in³ = 1/231 gallons

2494.8 = (1/231)(2494.8) gallons = 10.8 gallons

Find two numbers whos diffrence is 16 and the product is 720
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

the numbers who's difference is 16 and the product is 720 is

36 &20

Explanation:

to finding numbers you have to express the equation in a quadratic equation then Factor it.

since the two numbers have a difference of 16 you can say that the first number is x and the second number is x -16 then their product is 720.

x(x-16)=720

x²-16x=720

x²-16x-720=0

(x-36)(x+20)

there are two possible value of x but since you are looking for the positive value of x, choose the positive value of x the first number is 20.

To find the second number

x-16=20

x=20+16

x=36

the second number is 36

True or False The Solutions, Roots, X-intercepts and zeros of a quadratic equation are all the same thing? why
Zepler [3.9K]

Yes, solutions, roots, x-intercepts, and zeros are the same thing.

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

The general quadratic equation is given by:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

So the solutions are the values of x such that the above thing is zero.

On another hand, a parabola or a quadratic function is given by:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = y

The roots, zeros, or x-intercepts (these represent the same thing) are given by:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

  • Zero or Root means that when you evaluate the function in that value the outcome is zero.
  • X-intercept means that for that value of x, the function intercepts the x-axis, so the function is equal to zero.

So these are the values of x such that the function becomes equal to zero, so these are exactly the same thing as the solutions of a quadratic equation.

Concluding, yes, solutions, roots, x-intercepts, and zeros are the same thing.

Find the perimeter of ABCD<br> Find the area of Area
san4es73 [151]

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (1, 3)

B = (3, 6)

C = (9, 2)

D = (7, -1)

the distance between 2 points is given by the Pythagoras equation based on the coordinate differences as legs of virtual right-angled triangles.

AD for example we get from

AD² = (7-1)² + (-1 - 3)² = 6² + (-4)² = 36 + 16 = 52

AD = sqrt(52) = sqrt(4×13) = 2×sqrt(13)

and AB we get from

AB² = (3-1)² + (6-3)² = 2² + 3² = 4 + 9 = 13

AB = sqrt(13)

the perimeter of the given rectangle is

2×sqrt(52) + 2×sqrt(13) = 2×2×sqrt(13) + 2×sqrt(13) =

= 6×sqrt(13) = 21.63330765...

and the area of the rectangle is

2×sqrt(13)×sqrt(13) = 2×13 = 26
