Solve: x2 + 5x - 6= 0
A. -1, 6
B. 1, -6
C. -2, -3
D. 1,5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Assuming that the x2 is x squared, B

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)(1) + 5(1) - 6 = 1 + 5 - 6 = 6 - 6 = 0

(-6)(-6) + 5(-6) - 6 = 36 - 30 - 6 = 6 - 6 = 0

Answer 2

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve using factoring.

x²+5x-6=0

5 is the sum of the numbers, while -6 is their product.

Think: which two numbers add up to 5, but when multiplied, equal -6?

Those numbers are -1 and 6.

Now factor the polynomial:

(x-1)(x+6)=0

split into parts:

(x-1)=0

x-1=0

x=1

(x+6)=0

x+6=0

x=-6

So B

Hope this helps!

An airplane ascended into the sky to a steady altitude of 35000 feet. The same plane descended to a steady altitude of 32000 feet. How many feet did the airplane descend

Answers

Answer:

3000 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Initial Ascent to steady altitude = 35,000 feets

Descent to steady altitude = 32,000 feets

Number of feets the plane descend :

(Initial ascent to steady altitude - descent to steady altitude)

(35000 - 32000) feets = 3,000 feets

In a standard deck of cards, what is the probability of drawing a face card?

Answer (round) to the hundredth place value.

Answers

Answer:  0.23

Reasoning:

There are 12 face cards since there are 3 face cards in any suit, and 4 suits. So 3*4 = 12.

There are 52 cards total.

Dividing the values leads to 12/52 = 0.230769 which rounds to 0.23

Howie works at a petting zoo. He fed a piglet 1/5 of a bottle of milk then gave 3/4 of what was left to the calf. How much of the bottle of milk did the calf drink

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]th part of the bottle will be drunk by the calf.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part of the bottle fed by the piglet = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Milk left in the bottle = 1 - [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

                                  = [tex]\frac{5-1}{5}[/tex]

                                  = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Milk drunk by the calf = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]th of the left part

                                     = [tex]\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

                                     = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]th part of the bottle

Therefore, [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]th part of the bottle will be drunk by the calf.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (5,−2) and has a slope of -2/5

Answers

Answer:

y= -(2/5)x

Step-by-step explanation:

When you graph this line you can see it clearly passes through the point (5,-2)

Answer:

y + 2 = -2/5 (x - 5)

OR

y = (-2/5)x

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many ways you can find the equation.

There are two main ones, one called point-slope form, and the other called slope intercept form.

Point-slope form is easy. All you need a a point on the line, and the slope! Since they give you that in the question, all you need to do is plug things in.

Point slope form is y - [tex]y_{1}[/tex] = m(x - [tex]x_{1}[/tex])

x and y are any points. [tex]x_{1}[/tex] and [tex]y_{1}[/tex] are the points that the problem gives you. m is the slope.

The equation would be y + 2 = -2/5 (x - 5).

Slope intercept form is a bit harder. You need a point and the y-intercept.

Since you already have the slope, all you need to find is the y-intercept.

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b

x and y are the given points. m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

The y intercept is when the x value of a point is 0.

To find b, you can plug in the information you have, which is the point and the slope.

y = mx + b

-2 = (-2/5)(5) +b

-2 = -2 +b

b = 0

Since b is 0, the equation would just be y = (-2/5)x.

If bricks are each 3 inches × 4 inches × 8 inches, how many bricks can be fit into a space which is 1 foot × 4 feet × 8 feet?

A 1 to 250
B 251 to 500
C 501 to 750
D 751 to 1000
E >1000

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The dimensions of bricks are in inches so convert foot into inches.

1 foot = 12 in

4 feet = 48 in

8 feet = 96 in

To calculate the number of bricks that fit into space we divide the space's volume by the volume of 1 brick.

[tex]\text{Number of bricks in space}=\dfrac{12\times 48 \times96}{3\times 4 \times8}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Number of bricks in space}=576[/tex]

Hence, 576 bricks can be fit into a space.

Therefore the correct option is B.

In the seating for a concert, the first row has 10 chairs. Every row after that has 2 more chairs. 7. What is the explicit formula that models this situation? 8. How many chairs are in row 20?​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7. c(n) = 10 +2(n -1)

  8. c(20) = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

7. Your arithmetic sequence has first term a1=10 and constant difference d=2. The explicit formula for terms of an arithmetic sequence is ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

If we use c(n) as the function name for the function giving the number of chairs in row n, then we can fill in the numbers we know to get ...

  c(n) = 10 + 2(n -1)

__

8. Evaluating the function when n=20, we find ...

  c(20) = 10 +2(10-1) = 10 +2·19 = 10 +38

  c(20) = 48

There are 48 chairs in row 20.

so what are we trying to figure out?

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (1, 3) and is perpendicular to the line 2x+3y=15?

Answers

The equation of the line that passes through the point(1, 3) and is perpendicular to the line 2x + 3y = 15 is y = 3 / 2x + 3 / 2.

How to find the equation of a line perpendicular to another?

The line passing through (1, 3) is perpendicular to the equation 2x+3y=15.

Therefore,

y = mx + b

where

m = slopeb = y-intercept

Hence,

3y = -2x + 15

y = -2 / 3 x + 5

For line to be perpendicular it must follow the following rules;

m₁m₂ = -1

m₁(-2 / 3) = -1

-2m₁ = -3

m₁ = 3 / 2

Therefore, the equation can be found as follows:

3 = 3 / 2(1) + b

3 = 3 / 2 + b

b = 3 - 3 / 2

b = 6 - 3 / 2

b = 3 / 2

Hence,

y = 3 / 2x + 3 / 2
