Answer:
The solution is x = 10 and x = -6. This quadratic could be represented in factored form as (x - 10)(x + 6) or on a graph with x-intercepts at (10,0) and (-6,0).
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the quadratic, write the quadratic in standard form and factor the equation.
x² - 4x = 60
x² - 4x - 60 = 0
(x - 10)(x + 6) = 0
x = 10 and x = -6
This fraction cannot be changed to a mixed number because 3 can divide 42 to give 14. Hope i helped. Have a nice day.
Answer:
Animal books make up (3/20) of all books
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the total number of books, made up of nonfiction, animal, and all others.
(3/5)X are nonfiction books.
Of the nonfiction books, 1/4 are animal books: (3/5)*(1/4)X = (3/20)X are animal books
[This means that Nonfiction, less animal books is: (3/5)X - (3/20)X]
Animal books make up (3/20) of all books.
So we can call the width of the rectangle x.
So then the length would be 4x.
The perimeter would then be 10x.
Since the perimeter is 70, we can say 70 = 10x.
And then simplify that to 7 = x.
So the length of a rectangle would be 28 cm, and the width would be 7.
So to find the area, just multiply length by width.
28*7 = 196 square cm
So the rectangle's area is 196 square cm.

Use m=y2-y1/x2-x1 when you find the slope of two coordinates :)
