Answer:
n =
, n = 
Step-by-step explanation:
6n² - 5n - 7 = - 8 ( add 8 to both sides )
6n² - 5n + 1 = 0 ← in standard form
Consider the product of the factors of the coefficient of the n² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the n- term
product = 6 × 1 = 6 and sum = - 5
The factors are - 3 and - 2
Use these factors to split the n- term
6n² - 3n - 2n + 1 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
3n(2n - 1) - 1(2n - 1) = 0 ← factor out (2n - 1) from each term
(2n - 1)(3n - 1) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for n
3n - 1 = 0 ⇒ 3n = 1 ⇒ n = 
2n - 1 = 0 ⇒ 2n = 1 ⇒ n = 
Answer:
c

Answer:
<em>a:b:c=8:12:15</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Combined Ratio</u>
We are given the ratios:
a:b=2:3
b:c=4:5
The combined ratio a:b:c will include all three variables in one single expression.
Before finding it, we must have a common number for the common variable (b). Since b is 3 in the first ratio and 4 in the second ratio, we must equate both by finding the LCM of 3 and 4=12, thus both ratios will be amplified as follows:
a:b=2:3=(2*4):(3*4)=8:12
b:c=4:5=(4*3):(5*3)=12:15
Now there is a common factor in both ratios, we can combine them removing the common factor:
a:b:c=8:12:15
Let
x = 3a (first angle)
y = 3a (second angle)
z = 6a (third angle)
The total angle of a triangle is ALWAYS 180.
3a + 3a + 6a = 180
12a = 180
a = 15
Therefore, x = 45, y = 45, z = 90
Answer:
$69.60
Step-by-step explanation:
20% of $58 is $11.60. So you add $11.60 + 58 which equals $69.60, so that is the total cost.
