Answer:

I think it's

2 HgO (s) → 2 Hg (l) + O2 (g)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction:

2 HgII + 4 e- → 2 Hg0

(reduction)

2 O-II - 4 e- → 2 O0

(oxidation)

The variable $x$ varies directly as the square of $y$, and $y$ varies directly as the cube of $z$. If $x$ equals $-16$ when $z$

Kisachek [45]

If $x$ varies directly as $y^2$ , then there is some constant $a$ for which

$x=ay^2$

Similarly, there is some constant $b$ such that

$y=bz^3$

Given that $x=-16$ when $z=2$ , we have

$\begin{cases}-16=ay^2\\y=8b\end{cases}\implies-16=a(8b)^2\implies ab^2=-\dfrac14$

Now when $z=\frac12$ , we get

$\begin{cases}x=ay^2\\y=\frac b8\end{cases}\implies x=a\left(\dfrac b8\right)^2=\dfrac{ab^2}{64}=\dfrac{-\frac14}{64}=\boxed{-\dfrac1{256}}$

What two number multiply to negative 20 and add to 19

OLEGan [10]

$x;\ y-the\ numbers\\\\ \left\{\begin{array}{ccc}xy=-20\\x+y=19&\Rightarrow&x=19-y\end{array}\right\\\\subtitute\ to\ first\ equation:\\\\(19-y)y=-20\\19y-y^2+20=0\\-y^2+19y+20=0\ \ \ |change\ signs\\y^2-19y-20=0\\y^2-20y+y-20=0\\y(y-20)+1(y-20)+0\\(y-20)(y+1)=0\iff y-20=0\ or\ y+1=0\\\\y=20\ or\ y=-1$

$x=19-y\\\\for\ y=20\Rightarrow x=19-20=-1\\\\for\ y=-1\Rightarrow x=19-(-1)=20\\\\Answer:\boxed{\boxed{20\ and\ -1}}$
