You can solve this by algebraically as well as graphically. When I tried both ways I got:
solution is x= -2<span />
Answer) -5/2 quarts per hour
Work) There are 60 minutes in an hour and the faucet is losing water every 15 minutes so divide 60/15 and you get 4, next you take the 5/8 and times it by the 4 and you get -5/2
The shape of the distribution is rectangular, also Uniform and Symmetrical
Answer:
a = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. distribute the -6 on the left into the parentheses. you should get -36a + 30.
2. on the side right of the =, distribute the -2 to get -16 + 10a.
now it should look like -36a + 30 = -16 + 10a.
3. move the terms over to isolate the a value. subtract 30 to the right side to get -46 (-36a=-46+10a)
4. move the 10a on the right to the left by subtracting it to the other side.
(-46a=-46)
5.divide by -46 to get a=1
That would be scary lol but I guess kinda fun ❤️
