What are the solutions of the equation 6x2 + x-1=0 ?

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Options B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

6x² + x - 1 = 0

6x² + 3x - 2x - 1 = 0

3x(2x + 1) - 1(2x + 1) = 0

(3x - 1)(2x + 1)

x = 1/3 and -1/2

If 30 buses can carry 1,500 people, how many people can 5 buses carry? A 200 © 500 B 250 D 750

maksim [4K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 250 \ people}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.

$\frac {buses}{people}=\frac {buses}{people}$

We know 30 buses can carry 1,500 people.

$\frac {30 \ buses}{1500 \ people}=\frac {buses}{people}$

We don't know how many people 5 buses can carry, so we say 5 buses carry x people.

$\frac {30 \ buses}{1500 \ people}=\frac {5 \ buses}{x \ people}$

$\frac {30 }{1500 }=\frac {5 }{x }$

Cross multiply. Multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the second fraction's denominator. Then, multiply the first denominator by the second numerator.

$30*x=1500*5\\30x=7500$

Solve for x. It is being multiplied by 30. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 30.

$30x/30=7500\\x=250$

5 buses can carry 250 people.

Answer:

The translation corresponds to a translation of 13 units to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation of a Graph

If the graph of

y=f(x) is translated a units horizontally, then the equation of the translated graph is

y =f(x - a)

The value of a is considered positive for translations to the right.

The parent function is

y = x

and the given function is

y = x - 13

The translation corresponds to a translation of 13 units to the right
