The rule for the number of fish in a home aquarium is 1 gallon of water for each inch of fish length. Marta's aquarium holds 39

gallons of water and Hank's aquarium hold 51 gallons of water. The aquarium holds two types of fish, fish A and fish B. If Marta bought 3 of fish A and 2 of fish B, and Hank bought 3 of fish A and 4 of fish B, how long is fish A and how long is fish B?

Answer: Fish A: 9 inches ; Fish B: 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be turned into a systems of equation, where x equals the length of fish A and y equals the length of fish B:

3x + 2y = 39 → -3x - 2y = -39

3x + 4y = 51 → 3x +4y = 51

Combine: 0 + 2y = 12 → y = 6 inches.

Plug back in: 3x + 2(6) = 39 → 3x = 27 → x = 9 inches.

There seems to be a flaw with this question because it says that there are five x-intercepts but the given information only gives you 4 x-intercepts to work with.

Even means the graph is symmetric about the y-axis

The best answer is <span>A.(–6, 0), (–2, 0), and (0, 0)

because you do not have to worry about another point (0,0). Plus we need (-6,0) for it to be symmetric with (6,0).

Consider function f(x) = x²(x-6)(x+6)(x+2)</span>²(x-2)<span>². It is even and fits these conditions as it has x-intercepts at (6,0), (-6,0), (-2,0), (2,0), and (0,0). again, the question does not tell us the fifth x-intercept, so we need to assume that there is another one that needs to be there...and so (-2,0) must have (2,0) for it to be even as well.</span>

Now see if you can solve these word problems about time and distance.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Ediburgh -------------------------------350 miles-------------------------London

Let the distance traveled by train from Edin to London be "x"

hence the distance traveled by train from London to Edin would be "350-x"

  • The rate of Edin to London train is 60
  • The rate of London to Edin train is 40

Let the time they meet be"t"

Now, we know distance formula to be D = RT

Where

D is distance

R is rate

and

T is time

<u>Train from Edin to London:</u>

x = 60t

<u>Train from London to Edin:</u>

350-x = 40t

Solving for x:

350 - 40t = x

We put this into first equation:

x = 60t

350 - 40t = 60t

350 = 100t

t = 350/100

t = 3.5

They meet after 3.5 hours
