Remember, in order for this equation to be true either one of the polynomials has to equal 0
So:
-> x+6 = 0
x=-6
-> 2x-5 = 0
2x= 5
x= 5/2
So the answer is x=-6 and x= 5/2.
Hope this helps!
We develop an equation for the given situation by first writing the general equation for lines,
y = mx + b
Substituting to this given the values given above,
(1990) 430 = b
(2000) 400 = m(10) + 430
The value of m from the equation in 2000 is -3. Thus, the equation of that relates the variables is,
y = -3x + 430
Answer:
66 ≤ f ≤100
Explanation
Mean= ( Σ x ) / n
Mean= sum of scores/ number of subject she took
Now, she already too 3 subject which sum is 85+83+86=254
Now we need to know range of score for her to have (grade) a mark between 80 and 89
Now let take the lower limit mean=80
The lowest score she can get is
Mean = ( Σx) / n
80=(85+83+86+f)/4
80×4= 254+f
Therefore, f= 320-254=66
Therefore the minimum score she can have to have a B is 66.
Then, let take the upper limit mean 89. i.e the maximum she can have so that she don't have an A grade.
Mean = ( Σx) / n
89=( 83+85+86+f)/4
89×4= 254+f
f= 356-254
f=102.
Therefore this shows that she cannot have an A grade in the exam. The maximum score for the exam is 100.
There the range of score is 66 ≤ f ≤100 to have a B grade
66 ≤ f ≤100 answer
Since she cannot score 102 in the examination.
Your answer would be 4.23 as the answer will be a long one, estimated.
So, in order to solve this problem, I will set up an equation. First, let's make x= the # of hours it takes Mr. Itol to complete a computer task, and since his assistant takes twice as long, lets make 2x=the # of hours it takes the assistant to complete the task. We also know that it takes the two of them 6 hours to complete the task together. We can now set up the following equation:

Now, in order to be able to solve this, we have to find the least common denominator, and then we can cancel out the denominators to solve for the top part. The LCD=6x and the new equation becomes:

Now, we can get rid of the denominators, and we get:

So, x= 9
Now we know that Mr. Itol would take 9 hours to complete the task if he were to do it himself. To find how long it would take his assistant to complete the same task by himself, we just need to plug in the x-value into 2x:

Therefore, your answer is that Mr. Itol would take 9 hours to do the job alone, while his assistant will take 18 hours (double the time) to do the job alone.
Hope this helps :)
