Louie made 8.1 liters of fruit punch using only grape juice and carbonated water. He used 4.2 liters of grape juice. The equatio

n 4.2 + c = 8.1 can be used to represent this situation, where c is the number of liters of carbonated water used. How many liters of carbonated water did Louie use?

Given:

The equation is:

$4.2+c=8.1$

Where c is the number of liters of carbonated water used.

To find:

How many liters of carbonated water did Louie use?

Solution:

We have,

$4.2+c=8.1$

We need to solve this equation for c to find the number of liters of carbonated water used by Louie.

Subtracting 4.2 from both sides, we get

$4.2+c-4.2=8.1-4.2$

$c=3.9$

Therefore, Louie used 3.9 liters of carbonated water.

The line $y = 3$ intersects the graph of $y = 4x^2 + x - 1$ at the points $A$ and $B$. The distance between $A$ and $B$ can be w

raketka [301]

Answer:

61

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the points $A$ and $B$ .

We know that the $y$ -coordinates of both are $3$ .

So let's first solve:

$3=4x^2+x-1$

Subtract 3 on both sides:

$0=4x^2+x-1-3$

Simplify:

$0=4x^2+x-4$

I'm going to use the quadratic formula, $x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ , to solve.

We must first compare to the quadratic equation, $ax^2+bx+c=0$ .

$a=4$

$b=1$

$c=-4$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1^2-4(4)(-4)}}{2(4)}$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1+64}}{8}$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{65}}{8}$

Since the distance between the points $A$ and $B$ is horizontal. We know this because they share the same $y-coordinate$ .This means we just need to find the positive difference between the $x$ -values we found for the points of $A$ and $B$ .

So that is, the distance between $A$ and $B$ is:

$\frac{-1+\sqrt{65}}{8}-\frac{-1-\sqrt{65}}{8}$

$\frac{-1+\sqrt{65}+1+\sqrt{65}}{8}$

$\frac{2\sqrt{65}}{8}$

$\frac{\sqrt{65}}{4}$

If we compare this to $\frac{\sqrt{m}}{n}$ , we should see that:

$m=65 \text{ and } n=4$ .

So $m-n=65-4=61$ .

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

<h3> 33°</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of measures of angles in any triangle is 180°

The maesure of right angle is 90°

So: m∠EFD = 180° - 90° - 57° = 33°
