Help Me On One Of This Please!

Amanda is making pastry dough. She mixes of a 1/3cup of flour and of a 1/5 cup of sugar. If she wants to mix flour and sugar in

mr_godi [17]

Flour : sugar = (1/3) : (1/5) = 5 : 3 . . . . . . . . multiply the first ratio by 15 to eliminate fractions

The total of ratio units in the last representation is 5+3=8, so for a recipe of 16 cups, each ratio unit will stand for 16/8 = 2 cups.

Multiplying the ratio by 2 cups, we find Amanda will need

... 10 cups flour : 6 cups sugar

for her recipe.

Answer:

$x =\dfrac{20 +\sqrt{454}}{18}, \quad \dfrac{20 -\sqrt{454}}{18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given functions</u>:

$p(x)=2x-4$

$r(x)=\dfrac{6x-1}{9x+1}$

Solve for p(x) = r(x):

$\begin{aligned}p(x) & = r(x)\\\implies 2x-4 & = \dfrac{6x-1}{9x+1}\\(2x-4)(9x+1)&=6x-1\\18x^2+2x-36x-4&=6x-1\\18x^2-40x-3&=0\end{aligned}$

As the found quadratic equation cannot be factored, use the Quadratic Formula to solve for x:

<u>Quadratic Formula</u>

$x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\quad\textsf{when }\:ax^2+bx+c=0$

Therefore:

$a=18, \quad b=-40, \quad c=-3$

Substitute the values of a, b and c into the <u>quadratic formula</u> and solve for x:

$\begin{aligned}\implies x & =\dfrac{-(-40) \pm \sqrt{(-40)^2-4(18)(-3)} }{2(18)}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm \sqrt{1816}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm \sqrt{4 \cdot 454}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm \sqrt{4}\sqrt{454}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm2\sqrt{454}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{20 \pm\sqrt{454}}{18}\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the solutions are:

$x =\dfrac{20 +\sqrt{454}}{18}, \quad \dfrac{20 -\sqrt{454}}{18}$

An observation deck extends 202 feet out above the valley. The deck sits 152 feet above the valley floor. If an object is droppe

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the object as it drops from the observation deck expressed as;

h= -16t^2+152

To determine the the time it will take the object to be 8 feet above the valley floor, we will substitute h = 8 into the equation and calculate t as shown;

8 = -16t^2+152

subtract 8 from both sides

8-8 = -16t^2+152-8

0 = -16t^2+144

0-144 = -16t^2

-144 = -16t^2

16t^2 = 144

Divide both sides by 16;

16t^2/16 = 144/16

t^2 = 9

t = √9

t = 3seconds

Hence it will take 3 seconds for the object to be 8 feet above the valley floor
