Step-by-step explanation:

From y=2x-5, gradient=2

Change in y = Gradient

Change in x

8-4 =2

6-n

4 = 2(6-n)

4 =12 -2n

4 - 12 = -2n

-8 = -2n

-8 =n

-2

n= 4

Convert repeating decimal 9.81 to a fraction

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

981/100

Step-by-step explanation

step: 9.81= 9.81/1

step 2 multiply both too and bottom by 10

9.81/1 = (9.81*100)/(1*100)= 981/100

thus 981/100 is also equal to 9 81/100

Two pools are being filled with water. To start, the first pool contains 890 liters of water and the second pool is empty. Water

mars1129 [50]

Let x=amount of time it takes both pipes draining together to empty the pool
First pipe empties at the rate of 540,000/150=3600 liters/min
Second pipe empties at the rate of 540,000/225=2400 liters/min
Together, both pipes empties at the rate of 3600+2400=6000 liters/min, so our equation to solve is:
6000*x=540000

The height of a ball thrown into the air after t seconds have elapsed is h = −16t2 + 40t + 6 feet. What is the first time, t, wh

sp2606 [1]

<h3>The first time when the ball will reach a height of 20 feet is 0.42 seconds</h3>

Solution:

Given that,

The height of a ball thrown into the air after t seconds have elapsed is:

$h = -16t^2 + 40t + 6$

What is the first time, t, when the ball will reach a height of 20 feet?

Substitute h = 20

$20 = -16t^2 + 40t + 6\\\\-16t^2 + 40t + 6 -20 = 0\\\\-16t^2 + 40t -14 = 0\\\\16t^2 -40t + 14 = 0\\\\8t^2 -20t + 7=0$

Solve by quadractic formula

$\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}$

$x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=8,\:b=-20,\:c=7$

$t = \frac{-\left(-20\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-20\right)^2-4\cdot \:8\cdot \:7}}{2\cdot \:8}\\\\t = \frac{20 \pm \sqrt{176}}{16}\\\\t = \frac{20 \pm 4\sqrt{11}}{16}\\\\t = \frac{ 5 \pm \sqrt{11}}{4}\\\\We\ have\ two\ solutions\\\\ t=2.07915, \:t=0.42084$

Rounding off we get,

t = 2.08 , t = 0.42

Thus the first time when the ball will reach a height of 20 feet is 0.42 seconds
