Answer:
250 days
Step-by-step explanation:
If the number of drops increases by a factor of 20/8, the expected life will decrease by the inverse of that factor: 8/20.
The expected life is (8/20)(625 days) = 250 days.
Answer:
(
b, 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )
Here m = -
and b = b , thus
y= -
x + b ← equation of line
The line crosses the x- axis when y = 0, substitute y = 0 into equation and solve for x, that is
-
x + b = 0 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )
- 5x + 3b = 0 ( subtract 3b from both sides )
- 5x = - 3b ( divide both sides by - 5 )
x =
b , thus
x- intercept = (
b, 0 )

Answer:
4m, 4m, and 5 m
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information give;
- Two sides of a triangle are equal in length
- The third side is 3 m less than the common length
- Perimeter of the rectangle is 13 m
We are required to determine the dimensions of the triangle;
- Assuming the common sides are x m each
- Then, the third side will be (2x-3) m
- Perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of the three sides
Therefore;
(2x-3) + x + x = 13 m
4x - 3 = 13m
4x = 16 m
x = 4 m
and, 2x-3 = 5 m
Therefore, the lengths of the three sides of the triangle are 4m, 4m, and 5 m
