English pls coz I don’t understand
X^2 + 5x - 5 = 0
This is a quadratic equation that cannot be factored. It can be solved using the quadratic formula or by completing the square.
the quadratic formula is x = (-b +-sqrt(b^2 - 4ac))/2a
a is the coefficient of the x^2, b is the coefficient of the x, and c is the constant.
a = 1, b = 5, c = -5
x = (-5 +- sqrt(25+20))/2
x = (-5 +- sqrt(45))/2
x = (-5 + - 3 sqt 5))/2
x = (-5 + 3sqrt5)/2 and x = (-5 - 3sqrt5)/2
Here we are given that the Alligator's tail length t varies directly as its body length b.
Using this given information and taking k as constant of proportionality, we get this equation :
.................(1)
Now we are given:
body length (b) = 4 feet
tail length (t) = 2.5 feet
plugging these values in equation (1) we have,

from here we can calculate the value of k, dividing both sides by 4
k=2.5/4 = 0.625.............(2)
Now we have to find tail length of alligator if body length is 3.2 feet.
so plugging b=3.2 and k=0.625 in equation (1)

t= 2
So tail length is 2 feet when body length of alligator is 3.2 feet.
Answer: 1/3 is already the lowest term.
Answer:
The 80 p0und bag will last 128 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find out how much days the 80 pound bag last we have to divide the 80 pounds by the among that the dog eats each day. And so we get.....
80 /
=
=
=
= 128
