Answer:

$1 \frac{7}{12} \: or \: 1.583$

Step-by-step explanation:

nine fourths is also

$\frac{9}{4}$

two thirds is also

$\frac{2}{3}$

subtract,

$\frac{9}{4} - \frac{2}{3}$

L.C.M = 12

$\frac{27 - 8}{12}$

$\frac{19}{12}$

$1 \frac{7}{12} \: or \: 1.583$

horrorfan [7]

Grace has a 45 degree upwards angle, then the height of the lighthouse is 14'.

Case A. Kelly is 26 feet from the lighthouse.
The arcTangent of 14/26 is a 28.3 degree angle.

Case B. But if Kelly stood closer to the lighthouse, i.e. 2 feet away, then her angle is arcTangent of 14/2 = 81.9 degrees

Which two values of x are roots of the polynomial below?<br> 3x2-3x+1

QveST [7]

Answer:

The roots are

$x=\frac{1}{6} [3+ i\sqrt{3}]$

$x=\frac{1}{6} [3- i\sqrt{3}]$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$3x^2-3x+1$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

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

in this problem we have

$3x^2-3x+1=0$

so

$a=3\\b=-3\\c=1$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-(-3)\pm\sqrt{-3^{2}-4(3)(1)}} {2(3)}$

$x=\frac{3\pm\sqrt{-3}} {6}$

Remember that

$i=\sqrt{-1}$

so

$x=\frac{1}{6} [3\pm i\sqrt{3}]$

The roots are

$x=\frac{1}{6} [3+ i\sqrt{3}]$

$x=\frac{1}{6} [3- i\sqrt{3}]$

Tashia paid two months rent and a $500 security deposit when she signed her lease. In total, she paid $2,400.

fiasKO [112]

The equation that represents the scenario is 2x + 500 = 2400

The cost of one month rent is $950

She paid two months rent and a $500 security deposit when she signed for a lease. In total she paid $2400.

let

the cost of a month rent = x

Therefore,

<h3>Total cost Equation</h3>

2x + 500 = 2400

The cost of the one month rent can be calculated as follows:

2x + 500 = 2400
2x = 2400 - 500
2x = 1900
x = 1900 / 2
x = $950

Therefore, the equation that represent the scenario and cost of one month rent are as follows;

2x + 500 = 2400
cost of one month rent = $950
