Please help me solve the equation: +%283f-1%29%5E2%2B15f=5+.
--------------
You can expand it, but there's quicker way:
+%283f-1%29%5E2%2B15f=5+
+%283f-1%29%5E2%2B15f-5+=+0
+%283f-1%29%5E2%2B+5%2A%283f-1%29+=+0+
((3f-1) + 5)*(3f-1) = 0
(3f+4)*(3f-1) = 0
f = -4/3
f = 1/3

x-3y+7z+w=11

----------------
Looks like 4.
Determinant = -535
w = 3
x = 5
y = -1
z = 0

I made an Excel sheet to do these. Doing them manually is tedious and error-prone.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the product of 5 and 3 more than twice a number is 85. What is the number ?
-----------------
n = the "some number"
Twice a number + 3 = 2n+3
-----------------
5 times 2n+3 = 85
5*(2n+3) = 85
n+3 = 17
2n = 14
n = 7

The easiest way to do these is to use the fact that EXTERIOR angles always total 360 degs, for all polygons.
-----------------
360/16 = 22.5 degs exterior
180 - 22.5 = 157.5 degs interior

2x + 10y = 3
10y = -2x + 3
y = (-1/5)x + 3/10
slope, m = -1/5


Travel_Word_Problems/269745: How long, in minutes would it take for a train to travel a distance of 50 kilometres, if its speed was 33 metres per second [120 kph] and how would you go about writing it on paper.

50 km = 50000 meters
--------------
33 m/sec = 33*60 = 1980 m/minute
50000 meters/1980 m/min =~ 25.25 minutes.
-------------------
I don't know why the 120 kph is mentioned.
To write it on paper, I'd use a pen or a pencil.

There are 32 possible combinations of 5 objects, each a 1 or 2 chance.
What do you want to figure out?


Length-and-distance/269609: In navigational terms, a bearing is defined as the number of degrees a direction is from due north clockwise. If a plane flying 120 mph has flown 1 hour at a bearing of 32°, how far has it flown in a horizontal direction?

Horizontal is a bearing of 090º = due east
The angle with the horizontal is 90 - 32 = 58º
Horizontal distance = 120*cos(58)
=~ 63.59 miles
----------------
The terminology used is not good. Plane flight that is not vertical (changing in altitude) is horizontal, regardless of heading.


Mixture_Word_Problems/269614: a chemist wants to make 50ml of a 16% acid solution by mixing a 13% acid solution and an 18% acid solution. how many ml of each solution should the chemist use?
i set up the equation as followed but i dont know if it is correct
.16(20)= .13x +.18x,
then i got 3.2=.05x
then i divided and got 64 ml
x=64ml

----------------
64 is more than 50
------------------
.16*50 = .13*x + .18*(50-x)
800 = 13x + 900 - 18x
-100 = -5x
x = 20 ml of 13%
30 ml of 18%

Thx for sharing. Do you have a question?


Equations/269564: (6/y+4)+1=(5/2y+8)
I thought that the next step would look like:
6(2y+8)+(y+4)(2y+8)=5(y+4) but the answer in the back of the book does not
correspond with this once I finish solving it.
The final answer should be -15/2.

6/y+4)+1=(5/2y+8)
I thought that the next step would look like:
6(2y+8)+(y+4)(2y+8)=5(y+4) but the answer in the back of the book does not
correspond with this once I finish solving it.
The final answer should be -15/2.
----------------
The DEN of the right side is 2x the one on the left.
-------------
6/y+4)+1=(5/2y+8)
Multiply all terms by the right side DEN 2y+8
12 + 2y+8 = 5
2y + 20 = 5
2y = -15
y = -15/2

Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation (work shown, graph etc)
Quadratic equation ax%5E2%2Bbx%2Bc=0 (in our case 1x%5E2%2B18x%2B-4+=+0) has the following solutons:

x%5B12%5D+=+%28b%2B-sqrt%28+b%5E2-4ac+%29%29%2F2%5Ca

For these solutions to exist, the discriminant b%5E2-4ac should not be a negative number.

First, we need to compute the discriminant b%5E2-4ac: b%5E2-4ac=%2818%29%5E2-4%2A1%2A-4=340.

Discriminant d=340 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: +x%5B12%5D+=+%28-18%2B-sqrt%28+340+%29%29%2F2%5Ca.

x%5B1%5D+=+%28-%2818%29%2Bsqrt%28+340+%29%29%2F2%5C1+=+0.219544457292887
x%5B2%5D+=+%28-%2818%29-sqrt%28+340+%29%29%2F2%5C1+=+-18.2195444572929

Quadratic expression 1x%5E2%2B18x%2B-4 can be factored:
1x%5E2%2B18x%2B-4+=+%28x-0.219544457292887%29%2A%28x--18.2195444572929%29
Again, the answer is: 0.219544457292887, -18.2195444572929. Here's your graph:
graph%28+500%2C+500%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+-20%2C+20%2C+1%2Ax%5E2%2B18%2Ax%2B-4+%29

There's no way to know, unless you mean the sum of the other 4.
If so, the sum of the angles of a polygon with 5 sides and 5 angles is 540º
The other 4 would add to 434º
