The recycling plant processes 480 tons of glass per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity of glass recycled each minute = \frac{1}{3}\ tons

We know that;

1 hour = 60 minutes

Therefore;

Quantity of glass recycled in one hour = \frac{1}{3}*60=20\ tons

1 day = 24 hours

Quantity of glass recycled in 24 hours = 24*20 = 480 tons

The recycling plant processes 480 tons of glass per day.

will the opposite of a number always,sometimes,or never be greater than the number itself??????? can someone do an example and a
weeeeeb [17]

When the number is positive, its opposite is less than the number.

9 ==> -9 . . . . . . less
72 ==> -72 . . . . less
324 ==> -324 . . less


When the number is negative, its opposite is greater than the number.

-8 ==> 8 . . . . . . greater
-3/4 ==> 3/4 . . . greater
-429 ==> 429 . . greater .

We've seen that the opposite can be less, and it can also be greater.
I guess that means that it's sometimes greater.

one x-intercept for a parabola is at the point (2, 0). use the quadratic formula to find the other x-intercept for the parabola
omeli [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 ways to find the other x intercept.

1) Polynomial Long Division.

Divide x^2 - 3x + 2 by the binomial x - 2, because by the Factor Theorem if a is a root of a polynomial then x - a is a factor of said polynomial.

2) Just solving for x when y = 0, by using the quadratic formula.

x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0\\x_{12} = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{9 - 4(1)(2)}}{2} = \frac{3 \pm 1}{2} = 2, 1.

So the other x - intercept is at (1, 0)

3) Using Vietta's Theorem regarding the solutions of a quadratic

Namely, the sum of the solutions of a quadratic equation is equal to the quotient between the negative coefficient of the linear term divided by the coefficient of the quadratic term.

x_1 + x_2 = \frac{-b}{a}

And the product between the solutions of a quadratic equation is just the quotient between the constant term and the coefficient of the quadratic term.

x_1 \cdot x_2 = \frac{c}{a}

These relations between the solutions give us a brief idea of what the solutions should be like.
