Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this expression, we can use PEMDAS or order of operations.
<u>Parenthesis</u>
<u>Exponents</u>
<u>Multiplication>Division (Depends on which comes first from left to right)</u>
<u>Addition>Subtraction (See Multiplication>Division)</u>
So First, lets solve the <u>Parenthesis</u>. -2/5=-.4
So now, our equation is -3/-.4
There is no exponents or multiplication, so lets just <u>Divide</u>.
-3/-.4=7.5
The solution is 7.5
Hope this helps!
In both cases,
(as a consequence of the interesecting secant-tangent theorem)
So we have
10.
(omit the negative solution because that would make at least one of AB or AD have negative length)
11.
(again, omit the solutions that would give a negative length for either AB or AD)
Answer:
f(2) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Function f(t) is defined in three different ways depending on the value of t.
For t = 8, function f(t) is -64/t.
For t = 10, function f(t) is 14 - t.
We are not asked about f(8) or f(10). We are asked about f(2). The third definition of function f(t) is for all values of t that are not 8 or 10. 2 is not 8 or 10, so use the third definition of function f(t) and plug in 2 for t.
f(t) = t^2 - 3t + 2 for t not equal to 8 or 10.
f(2) = 2^2 - 3(2) + 2
f(2) = 4 - 6 + 2
f(2) = 0
Answer:
10 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
(150/x) + 1.5 + (450/(x+15)) = 600/x
Multiply through by x(x + 15):
150(x + 15) + 1.5x(x + 15) + 450x = 600(x + 15)
150x + 2250 + 1.5x^2 + 22.5x + 450x = 600x + 9000
150x + 2250 + 1.5x^2 + 22.5x + 450x - 600x - 9000 = 0
1.5x^2 + 22.5x - 6750 = 0
x = (-22.5 +/- sqrt(22.5^2 - 4(1.5)(-6750))) / (2*1.5)
x = (-22.5 +/- sqrt(506.25 + 40500)) / 3
x = (-22.5 +/- sqrt(41006.25)) / 3
x = (-22.5 +/- 202.5) / 3
x = 180/3 or -225/3
x = 60 or -75
But a negative number doesn't make sense, so therefore x = 60, so the journey took 600/60 = 10 hours.
The first one is distributive property.
