step 1
convert pounds to ton
1 ton------> 2204.62 lb
<span>each crate weighs 80 pounds
so
by proportion
1/2204.62=x/80
x=80/2204.62-----> x=0.036 ton
each crate weighs 0.036 ton
step 2
divide 2 ton by 0.036
2/0.036=55.11 crate----------> 55 crate
the answer is
</span>the greatest number of crates that can be loaded onto the elevator is <span>55
alalternative method
</span>step 1
convert ton to pounds
1 ton------> 2204.62 lb
a freight elevator has a weight limit of 2 ton
2 *2204.62 -----> 4409.24 lb
step 2
each crate weighs 80 pounds
divide 4409.24 by 80
4409.24/80=55.11 crate----------> 55 crate

Replace f(x) with 0 and swith the equation around to solve for x
x^4 - 32x^2 - 144 = 0
Factor the left side:
(x+6) (x-6) (x^2+4)
so far we have x+6 = 0, x = -6
x -6 = 0, x = 6
solve x^2 +4 = 0
x^2 = -4
x = sqrt(-4)
x = 2i, -21
The answer is B) 2i, 6, -6
Answer:
g = 7 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
you have 7 yards for the angle adjacent 30 deg.
tan 60 =
tan 60 = 7 / g
7 * root(3) / g = root(3)
7/g = 1
g = 7 yards
