let the time taken to be filled by both pipes be y
1/2 +1/8=1/y
(4+1)/8=1/y
5/8=y
cross multiplying
5y=8
y=8/5
=1.6hrs
Answer:
option b
Step-by-step explanation:
f(2)=-2 is the answer
The y-intercept is 60
the slope is 30
the equation of the line is y=30x+60
the ordered pair (4,120) represents and increase of 30 minutes per hour
Answer: The value of a is 1. The value of b is -1. The value of c is 1. The value of the discriminant is -3. The quadratic function will not intersects the x-axis.
Explanation:
The standard form of a quadratic equation is,

The given function is,

It can be written as,

By comparing this equation with the standard form of quadratic equation. we get,



The formula for discriminant is,




The value of the discriminant is -3.
If D<0, it means the function have no real roots.
If D=0, it means function have one real roots.
If D>0, it means function have two real roots.
Since D<0 it means the function have no real roots. So the function will not intersect the x-axis at any point.
