Answer:
x = - 2, x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = 4x² - 20x - 56
To find the zeros let f(x) = 0, that is
4x² - 20x - 56 = 0 ( divide through by 4 )
x² - 5x - 14 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 7)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7
The area of the patio is 216 square feet. Write an equation that represents the area of the patio
Answer:
[tex]216=2w \times w[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that the patio is a rectangle, we have
[tex]A= l\times w[/tex]
Where [tex]l[/tex] is the length and [tex]w[/tex] is the width.
Now let's assume that the length of the patio is double than the width.
[tex]l=2w[/tex]
So, the equation that represents this problem is
[tex]216=2w \times w[/tex]
Answer:
x(x+6)=216
Step-by-step explanation:
It would actually be x instead of w because in the equation, they are using x's.
The equation would then be solved by making the equation x^2+6x=216.
By completing the square using (b/2)^2, you would then get the width to be 12 and the length to be 18.

Professor Plum is standing 10 feet from a streetlamp. The light from the lamp is making his
shadow 8 feet long. He estimates that the angle of elevation from the tip of his shadow to the
top of the streetlamp is 40. About how high is the streetlamp? (6 points)
Answer:
15.10 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
It would be helpful to draw the figure from the problem statement above. Drawing it, would give you a right triangle shape where the base is equal to 10 ft + 8 ft = 18 ft with the angle of 40 degrees. We use knowledge on trigonometric functions to solve this.
tan (theta) = opposite side / adjacent side
tan 40 = x / 18
x = 15.10 ft

Corey brought $54.50 to the art supply store. He bought a brush, a sketchbook, and a paint set. The brush was 1 6 as much as the sketchbook, and the sketchbook cost 3 4 the cost of the paint set. Corey had $2.00 left over after buying these items. What was the cost of each item?
Answer: The items cost as follows;
(a) Brush = $3.50, (b) Sketchbook = $21 and (c) Paint set = $28
Step-by-step explanation: First of all we shall assign letters to the unknown variables, hence we shall call the brush x, the sketchbook y, and the paint set we shall call z.
The total amount spent by Corey was $52.50 because after buying all he needed, he had $2.00 left out of a total of $54.50. This means his transaction can be expressed as follows;
x + y + z = 52.50
However, we know that the brush was 1/6 as much as the sketchbook, that is, if the sketchbook is y, then the brush which is x shall be 1/6 of y. Simply put, x = 1/6y or x = y/6.
Similarly, the sketchbook cost 3/4 of the paint set. If the paint set is z, that means y = 3/4z or y = 3z/4.
Note however that, if y = 3z/4, then by cross multiplication,
4y = 3z
4y/3 = z
Having derived that x = y/6 and z = 4y/3, we can substitute for the values of x and z into the original equation
x + y + z = 52.50
y/6 + y + 4y/3 = 52.5
using a common denominator which is 6, you now have;
(y + 6y + 8y)/6 = 52.5
By cross multiplication, you now have
15y = 52.5*6
15y = 315
Divide both sides of the equation by 15
y = 21
Therefore, if the sketchbook is y, then the sketchbook costs $21.
Also if the brush is x, then the brush costs
x = y/6
x = 21/6
x = 3.50 (The brush costs $3.50)
Also if the sketchbook costs 3/4 of the paint set, then
y = 3z/4
21 = 3z/4
21*4 = 3z
84 = 3z
Divide both sides of the equation by 3
28 = z (The paint set costs $28)
Doreen uses 13 apples for every two pies she bakes. How many apples will she use for 12 pies?

Answer:
78 apples for 12 pies
Step-by-step explanation:
we use 13 apples for 2 pies
she makes 12 pies
6x2 = 12 pies
so we do 13x6
13x6=78
78 apples for 12 pies :)
can i get brainliest
Answer:
13/2 = 6.5
12 x 6.5 = 78
? = 78
13/2 = 78/12
Step-by-step explanation:
13 apples ÷ 2 pies = 6.5 apples per pie
12 pies x 6.5 apples per pie = 78 apples for 12 pies
? = 78 apples for 12 pies
13/2 = 78/12

. A don Alvaro le encargaron construir un depósito de agua de 729 m3 ¿Cuánto debe medir la arista del depósito?
Answer:
a = 9m
Step-by-step explanation:
You can take the volume of the water tank as the volume of a cube.
The volume of a cube with side a is given by:
V=a*a*a = a^3
To find the value of a you do a the subject of the formula:
a=(V)^{1/3}
You replace and obtain for a:
a = (729m^3)^{1/3} = 9m
hence, the rim a of the water tank is 9m
Answer: The side of the tank is 9 m.
Step-by-step explanation: A water tank is normally a cube, which means length, width and height has the same measure.
To calculate Volume of a cube:
V = length*width*height
Knowing that volume is 729 and assuming sides are x:
x*x*x = 729
x³ = 729
x = [tex]\sqrt[3]{729}[/tex]
x = 9
The volume is in cubic meters, so sides of the tank measures 9 m.

What is the measure of AngleDEF? Triangle D E F. Angle D is 28 degrees. Angle F is 47 degrees. 25 degrees 75 degrees 90 degrees 105 degrees
hellllpppp
Answer:
105 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles on a triangle must always equal 180 degrees. We know that two angles are 28 and 47, so the third angle must be 105.
28 + 47 + x = 180
75 + x = 180
75 - 75 + x = 180 - 75
x = 105
Answer:
105 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
28+47=75
180-75=105
8) Lea and Elisa each improved their yards by planting hostas and geraniums. They
bought their supplies from the same store. Lea spent $69 on 11 hostas and 7
geraniums, Elisa spent $64 on 10 hostas and 7 geraniums. What is the cost of one
hosta and the cost of one geranium?
Answer:
hosta = $5 each
geranium = $2 each
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write a system of equations:
Leas's cost: 11 h + 7 g = 69
Elisa’s cost: 10h + 7g = 64
Where h is the price of one hosta and g is the price of one geranium.
Subtracting Elisa's cost to Leas's cost:
11 h + 7 g = 69
-
10h + 7g = 64
____________
h = $5
Replacing h in one equation:
11 (5) + 7 g = 69
55 +7g =69
7g = 69-55
7g= 14
g= 14/7
g= $2

I bought 45 oz of flour. She used 15.6 oz to make a loaf of bread, 0.71 oz for each muffin. How many muffins were made if you have 18.04 oz left over?
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Total weight of flour =45 ozWeight of flour used for bread =15.6 ozLeftover =18.04 ozTherefore:
Weight of flour used for muffin =Total weight of flour-(Weight of flour used for bread+Leftover)
=45-(15.6+18.04)
=45-33.64
=11.36 oz
Since each muffin is made with 0.71 oz of flour
Number of muffins made=11.36/0.71
=16
16 muffins were made.

2nd term = 2/5
5th term = 16/135
Nth term for any series is given by [tex]a r^n-1[/tex]
where a is the forst term
r is the common ratio
for 2nd term
[tex]2nd \ term = ar^n-1 = 2/5\\2nd \ term = ar^2-1 = 2/5\\2nd \ term = ar= 2/5\\[/tex]
for 5th term
[tex]5th \ term = ar^5-1 = 16/135\\\\5th \ term = ar^4 = 16/135\\[/tex]
Since we have to eliminate a and find r .
we can divide 5th term by second term
then we get the following equation
[tex]2nd term/ 5th \ term = ar/ar^4 = (2/5) / (16/135)\\=>1/r^3 = 2*135/5*16 \\=>1/r^3 = 27/8\\=>1/r = \sqrt[3]{27/8} \\=> 1/r = 3/2\\=> r = 2/3[/tex]
\
Thus, common ratio is 2/3.
2. In two tosses of a fair die, what is the probability that:
i. The sum of the two numbers that show up is 7?
ii. The sum of the two numbers that show up is even?
iii. The sum of the two numbers that show up is greater than 9?
3. The probability that an egg will break when kept in the store is 5 out of every 200. How many broken eggs do you expect from a crate containing 600 eggs?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The outcomes table is shown in the attached diagram. From the table, the total number of outcomes is 36.
i) the number of outcomes whose sum is 7 are 6 (1,6 2,5 3,4 4,3 5,2 6,1)
The probability that the sum of the two numbers that show up is 7 is
6/36 = 1/6
ii) the number of outcomes whose sum is even are 18
The probability that the sum of the two numbers that show up is even is
18/36 = 1/2
ii) the number of outcomes whose sum is greater than 9 is 6(4,6 5,5 6,4 5,6 6,5 6,6)
The probability that the sum of the two numbers that show up is greater than 9 is
6/36 = 1/6
3) this is a poisson distribution. We want to determine the mean.
Mean = np
p = 5/200 = 0.025
n = 600
Therefore,
Mean = 0.025 × 600 = 15 eggs
15 eggs are expected to be broken from a crate containing 600 eggs
