Answers

Answer 1

Answer: It's not possible to create 38 liters of green paint with whole liters of blue and yellow paint.

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

Explanation:

The ratio of blue to yellow is 2:3. We have 2 parts blue and 3 parts yellow.

Multiply both parts by x to get 2x:3x

We have 2x parts of blue paint, and 3x parts of yellow paint.

x is some positive whole number.

In total, we have 2x+3x = 5x liters of paint. Set this equal to 38 and solve for x to get

5x = 38

x = 38/5

x = 7.6

We don't get a whole number, which contradicts how we set up x earlier. This must mean that Mark must use a fractional liters, instead of whole liters.

-------------------------

Here's another way to look at it:

Lets say he uses 2 liters of blue and 3 liters of yellow. This mixes to 2+3 = 5 liters of green.

Now let's say he uses 4 liters of blue and 6 of yellow. I multiplied both parts by 2. This mixes to 4+6 = 10 liters of green.

We continue this process to get the following

6 liters of blue + 9 liters of yellow = 15 liters of green8 liters of blue + 12 liters of yellow = 20 liters of green10 liters of blue + 15 liters of yellow = 25 liters of green12 liters of blue + 18 liters of yellow = 30 liters of green14 liters of blue + 21 liters of yellow = 35 liters of green16 liters of blue + 24 liters of yellow = 40 liters of green

As you can see, we don't land on 38 liters of green. We can get to 35 liters or 40 liters, but not 38. Each of the amounts of green are a multiple of 5.

This is confirmation that Mark will have to use some fractional amount of liters of blue and yellow paint.

whats the equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (-5,3) and (3,7)?

Answers

Answer:

The equation of perpendicular bisector of the line segment passing through  (-5,3) and (3,7) is: [tex]y = -2x+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are:

(-5,3) and (3,7)

The perpendicular bisector of line segment formed by given points will pass through the mid-point of the line segment.

First of all we have to find the slope and mid-point of given line

Here

(x1,y1) = (-5,3)

(x2,y2) = (3,7)

The slope will be:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\m = \frac{7-3}{3+5}\\m = \frac{4}{8}\\m = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The mid-point will be:

[tex](x,y) = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})\\ = (\frac{-5+3}{2},\frac{3+7}{2})\\= (\frac{-2}{2},\frac{10}{2})\\=(-1,5)[/tex]

Let m1 be the slope of the perpendicular bisector

Then using, "Product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1"

[tex]m.m_1 = -1\\\frac{1}{2}.m_1 = -1\\m_1 = -1*2\\m_1 = -2[/tex]

We have to find the equation of a line with slope -2 and passing through (-1,5)

The slope-intercept form is given by:

[tex]y = mx+b\\y = -2x+b[/tex]

Putting the point (-1,5) in the equation

[tex]5 = -2(-1)+b\\5 = 2+b\\b = 5-2\\b = 3[/tex]

The final equation is:

[tex]y = -2x+3[/tex]

Hence,

The equation of perpendicular bisector of the line segment passing through  (-5,3) and (3,7) is: [tex]y = -2x+3[/tex]

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

For the quadratic equation to have 1 repeated real solution, the discriminant b² - 4ac must be zero.

=> (-z)² - 4(z - 5)(5) = 0

=> z² - 20(z - 5) = 0

=> z² - 20z + 100 = 0

=> (z - 10)² = 0

Therefore z = 10.

Answer:

T = -3.7

Step-by-step explanation:

We begin with the given equation.

5(t+3)=-3.5

Distribute 5 throughout parentheses.

5t + 15 = -3.5

Move 15 to the other side and switch signs.

5t = -3.5 - 15

Combine like terms.

5t = -18.5

Divide by 5t.
