Find the values for a and b that would make the equality true.
–3(2x2 + ax +b) = -6x2 + 12x – 15
a =
b=

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = - 4, b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the left side, then compare the coefficients of like terms.

- 3(2x² + ax + b)

= - 6x² - 3ax - 3b, compare to - 6x² + 12x - 15

Compare coefficients of x- terms

- 3a = 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

a = - 4

Compare constant terms

- 3b = - 15 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

b = 5

The first three terms of a sequence are given. Round to the nearest thousandth (if necessary). 6, 4, 8/3... Find the 7th term.

Answers

Answer:

0.527

Step-by-step explanation:

The first three terms of a sequence are given. Round to the nearest thousandth (if necessary). 6, 4, 8/3... Find the 7th term

The sequence given in the above Question is a geometric sequence.

The formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence is given as:

an = a × r ^n - 1

Where

a = First term

r = Common ratio

n = nth term

From the above question, we are asked to find the 7th term

Hence:

a = 6

Common ratio = Second term/first term

= 4/6 = 2/3

n = 7

The 7th term = 6 × (2/3 )^7 - 1

= 6 × (2/3)^6

= 6 × (2/3)⁶

= 0.5267489712

Approximately to the nearest thousandths the 7th term = 0.527

Given that,

Mya has 3 times as much floor as Eric. Mya has 15.81 lb of floor. The relation is given by :

Let Eric has F floor.

3F = 15.81 ...(1)

what is the least perfect squared number that is divisible divisible by

12

16

20

24



NOTE : the first one who answers gets branilast ​

Answers


The lowest perfect squared number that is divisible by 12,16,20,24 is 3600
1. Let's find the L.C.M
12 = 2×2×3
16 = 2×2×2×2
20 = 2×2×5
24 = 2×2×2×3
The L.C.M is 2×2×2×2×3×5 = 240
2. Now, the L.C.M 240 is not a perfect square.
3.Therefore to obtain a lowest perfect square the given number should be should have another 3 and 5 as the factor.
4. So, multiplying 240 by 15 we, get 3600 which is a perfect square and it can be divided by 12,16,20,24.
5. 3600 is the square of 60.
6.Therefore, the lowest perfect square that is divisible by 12,16,20,24 is 3600

A plane rises from take off and flies at an angle 11° with the horizontal runway. When it has gained 750 feet find the distance to the nearest foot the plane has flown

Answers

Answer:

[tex]D=3930.632298 \approx 3930.6miles[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Angle  [tex]\theta=11\textdegree[/tex]

Height of plane [tex]h =750feet[/tex]

Generally the equation for the total distance flown is mathematically given by

[tex]D=\frac{h}{sin\theta}[/tex]

[tex]D=\frac{750}{sin11}[/tex]

Therefore total distance flown is

James works in a sporting goods store and earns $324 a week and 5% of his sales. One week James earned $432. What were his sales that week?

Answers

Answer:

His sales that week were $2,160.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to subtract $324 from the amount he earned that week, to find the 5% he got from sales:

$432-$324=$108

Now, you know that he received $108 that represent 5% of his sales and you can use a rule of three to find the amount that represents 100% which would be his sales that week:

 5%   →    108

100% →      x

x=(100*108)/5=2160

According to this, the answer is that his sales that week were $2,160.

Answer:

9. a. 6

9. b. 2; 1

9. c. 3.14; 1.57

9. d. 7.57

10. 3106.86

Step-by-step explanation:

9.  a.  The rectangle has a length of 3 and a width of 2, so that means its area has to be 6.

9. b. The semi-circle's diameter is 2, because it is the same width as the rectangle, and finding the radius, means that you need to cut the diameter in half, so the radius of the circle is 1.

9. c. To find the full circle, we must use the formula (pi)(r)^2. So we have 3.14(1), which is just equal to pi. but since we need half the circle, we must divide the number by 2, to get the answer 1.57...

9. d. Finally we need to add up all the values together, from a. we know that the rectangle has an area of 6, and from b and c, we know the semi-circle has an area of 1.57, so we add those two numbers together we get 7.57.

10. We can do the exact same thing as number nine, which means the rectangle is 30*70=2100, The radius of the circle is 15 (30/2), the area of the circle (and since there are 2 semi circles, we don't need to divide by 2) we get 706.86, now all thats left is to add the numbers together to get the number 2806.86.

Margot is sewing a ribbon on a seam along the perimeter of a square pillow. The side length of the pillow is 2x2+1 inches. She plans to make a similar pillow, including the ribbon, whose side length is 4x−7 inches. What expression can be used for the length of ribbon that she needs for both pillows, and what is the length if x = 3.5?

2x2+4x−6; 22.0 inches
2x2+4x−6; 32.5 inches
4(2x2+4x−6;) 88.0 inches
4(2x2+4x−6;) 130.0 inches

Answers

Answer:

4(2x2+4x−6;) 130.0 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression that can be used for the total length of ribbon she needs for both square pillows and the length if x = 3.5 is:

D. 4(2x² + 4x - 6); 130.0 inches.

What is the Perimeter of a Square?

Perimeter of a square = 4(s).

s = side length of the square.

Perimeter of the first pillow = 4(s) = 4(2x² + 1) inches.

Perimeter of the similar pillow = 4(s) = 4(4x - 7) inches.

Expression for the total length of ribbon she will need for both square pillows is:

4(2x² + 1) + 4(4x - 7)

4(2x² + 1 + 4x - 7)

4(2x² + 4x - 6)

If x = 3.5, plug in the value of x into 4(2x² + 4x - 6) to find the total length of the ribbon she needs:

4(2(3.5)² + 4(3.5) - 6)

4(24.5 + 14 - 6)

130.0 inches.

Thus, the expression that can be used for the total length of ribbon she needs for both square pillows and the length if x = 3.5 is:

D. 4(2x² + 4x - 6); 130.0 inches.

A drummer and a guitarist each wrote songs for their band. The guitarist wrote 5 fewer than three times the number of songs that the drummer wrote. They wrote a total of 35 songs. Which system of equations models this situation if the drummer wrote d songs and the guitarist wrote g songs? *

Answers

Answer:

Guitarist wtote 25 songs

Drummer wrote 10 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

G: number of guitarist songs

D: number of Drummer songs

We have:

G=3D - 5 (The guitarist wrote 5 fewer than three times the number of songs that the drummer wrote)

G+D=35 (They wrote a total of 35 songs)

That is the meaning of each equation.

Now we have to solve these system of equations:

G=3D-5

G+D=35

Using the substitution method:

(3D-5)+D=35

4D=35+5

4D+40

D=10

Thus: G=35-10

G=25

Calculating Temperature

From the question, we are to determine the afternoon temperature in Westfield City

From the given information,

"In the morning, the temperature in Westfield City was -2°F"

and

"By afternoon, a north wind caused the temperature to drop another 8°F"

Thus,

The afternoon temperature = -2°F - 8°F

The afternoon temperature = -10°F

Hence, the afternoon temperature in Westfield City is -10°F.
