Cole hauls heavy equipment from North Dakota to Winnipeg. After crossing into Canada, he sees a sign that says the weight limit for the road is 7 metric tons. He must decide whether to drive on this road or to take a detour. How many U.S. standard tons are allowed on the road?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: approximately 7.7161 US tons

Work Shown:

1 metric ton = 1.1023 US tons

7*(1 metric ton) = 7*(1.1023 US tons)

7 metric tons = 7.7161 US tons

In the equation x square + 5x - 14 =0, the solutions are?​

Answers

Answer:

-2,7

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\huge\bold\red{Answer:-}[/tex]

Step by step solution :

STEP 1 : Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

1.1 Factoring x2+5x-14

The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .

The middle term is, +5x its coefficient is 5 .

The last term, "the constant", is -14

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -14 = -14

Step-2 : Find two factors of -14 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 5 .

-14 + 1 = -13

-7 + 2 = -5

-2 + 7 = 5 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -2 and 7

x2 - 2x + 7x - 14

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

x • (x-2)

Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

7 • (x-2)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

(x+7) • (x-2)

Which is the desired factorization.

Equation at the end of step 1 :

(x + 7) • (x - 2) = 0

STEP 2 : Theory - Roots of a product

2.1 A product of several terms equals zero.

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.2 Solve : x+7 = 0

Subtract 7 from both sides of the equation :

x = -7

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.3 Solve : x-2 = 0

Add 2 to both sides of the equation :

x = 2

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly

Solving x2+5x-14 = 0 directly

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

3.1 Find the Vertex of y = x2+5x-14

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is -2.5000

Plugging into the parabola formula -2.5000 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :

y = 1.0 * -2.50 * -2.50 + 5.0 * -2.50 - 14.0

or y = -20.250

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for : y = x2+5x-14

Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={-2.50}

Vertex at {x,y} = {-2.50,-20.25}

x -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at {x,y} = {-7.00, 0.00}

Root 2 at {x,y} = { 2.00, 0.00}

Solve Quadratic Equation by Completing The Square

3.2 Solving x2+5x-14 = 0 by Completing The Square .

Add 14 to both side of the equation :

x2+5x = 14

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of x , which is 5 , divide by two, giving 5/2 , and finally square it giving 25/4

Add 25/4 to both sides of the equation :

On the right hand side we have :

14 + 25/4 or, (14/1)+(25/4)

The common denominator of the two fractions is 4 Adding (56/4)+(25/4) gives 81/4

So adding to both sides we finally get :

x2+5x+(25/4) = 81/4

Adding 25/4 has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

= x2+5x+(25/4)

= (x+(5/2)) • (x+(5/2))

= (x+(5/2))2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

x2+5x+(25/4) = 81/4 and

x2+5x+(25/4) = (x+(5/2))2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

(x+(5/2))2 = 81/4

We'll refer to this Equation as Eq. #3.2.1

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

= (x+(5/2))2 is

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

= (x+(5/2))1

=x+(5/2)

Now, applying the Square Root Principle to Eq. #3.2.1 we get:

x+(5/2) = √ 81/4

Subtract 5/2 from both sides to obtain:

x = -5/2 + √ 81/4

Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative

x2 + 5x - 14 = 0

has two solutions:

x = -5/2 + √ 81/4

or

x = -5/2 - √ 81/4

Note that √ 81/4 can be written as

√ 81 / √ 4 which is 9 / 2

Solve Quadratic Equation using the Quadratic Formula

3.3 Solving x2+5x-14 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula, x , the solution for Ax2+Bx+C = 0 , where A, B and C are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

- B ± √ B2-4AC

x = ————————

2A

In our case, A = 1

B = 5

C = -14

Accordingly, = B2 - 4AC

=25 - (-56)

= 81

Applying the quadratic formula :

-5 ± √ 81

x = —————

2

Can √ 81 be simplified ?

Yes! The prime factorization of 81 is

3•3•3•3

To be able to remove something from under the radical, there have to be 2 instances of it (because we are taking a square i.e. second root).

√ 81 = √ 3•3•3•3 =3•3•√ 1

= ± 9 • √ 1

= ± 9

So now we are looking at:

x = ( -5 ± 9) / 2

Two real solutions:

x =(-5+√81)/2=(-5+9)/2= 2.000

or:

x =(-5-√81)/2=(-5-9)/2= -7.000

Two solutions were found :

x = 2 x = -7

Determine whether QR and ST are parallel, perpendicular,
or neither.
Q(-6, 11), R (2, -1), S(-4, 8), T(-1, 10)

Answers

Answer:

Perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that:

Two lines are parallel if their slopes are the same. Two lines are perpendicular is their slopes are negative reciprocals. And two lines are neither (a.k.a intersecting) if they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

So, let's find the slope of QR and ST.

QR)

We can use the slope formula:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Let Q(-6, 11) be (x₁, y₁) and R(2, -1) be (x₂, y₂). Substitute:

[tex]m=\frac{-1-11}{2-(-6)}[/tex]

Subtract:

[tex]m=-12/8=-3/2[/tex]

So, the slope of QR is -3/2.

ST)

Let S(-4, 8) be (x₁, y₁) and T(-1, 10) be (x₂, y₂). Substitute:

[tex]m=\frac{10-8}{-1-(-4)}[/tex]

Subtract:

[tex]m=2/3[/tex]

So, the slope of ST is 2/3.

The negative reciprocal of -3/2 is 2/3.

And the negative reciprocal of 2/3 is -3/2.

So, the slopes are indeed negative reciprocals of each other.

So, QR and ST are perpendicular.

======================================================

Explanation:

The x coordinates of the two points are -6 and 4. They add to -6+4 = -2. Cut this in half to get -2/2 = -1.

The y coordinates of the two points are 3 and 9. They add to 3+9 = 12. Cut this in half to get 12/2 = 6.

The midpoint formula is

[tex]\left(x_m, y_m) = \left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)[/tex]

In short, you add the corresponding coordinates and then divide by 2.

Knowing this, reducing any of the 3 fractions to its lowest form will allow you to find the information necessary to develop an equation. As 8/3 turns out to be the simplest form of any of the fractions, the equation is a = 8/3b, or, if you decide to reverse the variables, b = 3/8a.

Answer:

x = √5 + 1, x = -√5 + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We want the coefficient of x^2 to be 1, so let's divide either side by 3;

3x^2 - 6x - 12 = 0 => Divide either side by 3

3x^2/3 - 6x/3 - 12/3 = 0/3 => Simplify

Let's try to form a perfect square;

(x^2 - 2x + ? ) - 4 = 0

Answer:

£ 45.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of adults ⇒ 12

Number of children ⇒ 26

Total cost of tickets ⇒ £ 1804.80

Cost of an adult's ticket ⇒ £ 51.60

Cost of a ticket for child ⇒ ?

Let the cost of a ticket for child be x.

Therefore,

Total cost = cost of tickets for adults + cost of tickets for children

Total cost = (No. children × Cost of a ticket) + (No.adults × Cost of a ticket)

£ 1804.80 = 26x + 12 × £51.60

1804.80  = 26x + 619.2

1804.80 - 619.2 = 26x

1185.6 = 26x

Divide both sides by 26.

45.6 = x

A helicopter was hovering over a shelter and was 800 ft above the ground. A medic was on the ground and was looking up at an angle of 65° to the helicopter. The medic’s eyes were 5.5 feet off the ground when looking at this angle of elevation. How far was the medic from the shelter?

Answers

Using the slope concept, it is found that the medic was 370.5 ft from the shelter.

What is a slope?

The slope is given by the vertical change divided by the horizontal change, and it's also the tangent of the angle of depression.

In this problem:

The vertical change is of 800 - 5.5 = 794.5 ft.The horizontal chnge is the distance d.The angle is of 65º.

Hence:

[tex]\tan{65^\circ} = \frac{794.5]{d}[/tex]
