X would equal 8
Step-by-step explanation:
5-3(8) = -19
5 multiplied by negative 3 times 8 equals negative 19
negative 3 times 8 equals negative 24 plus 5 equals 19
So to find the answer, first we need to understand how to approximate square roots. 80 is an imperfect square, so we're going to have to round the answer. To find that, we need to find the multiples 80.
72, 80, 81.
8, x, 9
So the distance apart between 72 and 81 is 9. The answer, x, is obviously between 8 and 9, and since the distance between these to is 9, your answer is going to be 8.9 .
I do not agree. If you divide 240 by 30, it would be 8 heartbeats, which is absurd. It's impossible for something to survive with 8 heartbeats per 30 seconds.
In order to get the CORRECT answer, divide 240 by 60 seconds.
This would give you 4 heartbeats per second.
Then, multiply it by 30 seconds, which would give you 120 heartbeats.
CORRECT answer: 120
Answer:
A. 5x^2 - 2x - 12 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The base is x feet.
The height is 2 less that 5 times the base.
The height is 5x - 2.
The area is 12.
The area is base * height / 2.
area = bh/2
area = x * (5x - 2) = 12
5x^2 - 2x = 12
5x^2 - 2x - 12 = 0
