No. 6/8=9/12
by multiplying the denominators you get the common denominator of 72
then multiply each numerator by the number of the opposite denominator
8x12=96
6x12=72
9x8=72
Therefore, 72/96=72/96
(6/8 = 9/12)
<span>Rate of pump A: 1/8 of a pool per hour
Rate of pump B: 1/9 of a pool per hour
Combined rate: 1/8+1/9 = 17/72 +1/9 = 25/72
So if they work together, the two pumps have a combined rate of 25/72 of a pool per hour (i.e in one hour, the two pumps will empty 25/72 of the pool)
</span><span>But we want to empty ONE pool (not 25/72 of one). So we need to multiply 25/72 by some number x to get 1.
</span>
<span>Now solve for x
x=2.88
</span><span>It will take the two pumps 2.88 hours to empty the pool.
2 hours 52 minutes 50 seconds</span>
5 baskets...each holds 15 apples....(5 x 15) = 75 apples
4 friends pick the same amount...
4 x 75 = 300 apples picked in total. <==
Answer:
No real roots
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
7x² + 5x + 1 = 0 ← in standard form
with a = 7, b = 5, c = 1
To determine the nature of the roots use the discriminant
Δ = b² - 4ac
• If b² - 4ac > 0 then roots are real and distinct
• If b² - 4ac = 0 then roots are real and equal
• If b² - 4ac < 0 then the roots are not real
Here
b² - 4ac = 5² - (4 × 7 × 1) = 25 - 28 = - 3
Thus the 2 roots are not real
