GIVE BRAINLIEST :) Morgan can paint a room in 10 hours, while Sophia can paint it in 4 hours. If Morgan paints for x hours and Sophia paints for y hours, they will finish half of the painting, while if Morgan paints for y hours and Sophia paints for x hours they will paint the whole room. Find the ordered pair (x,y), expressing both x and y as simplified fractions.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

x,y =  ( 3 17/21  ,  10/21)

Step-by-step explanation:

Painting the room = 1    whole job

Morgan rate =   1/10

Sophia rate  =  1/4

Rate x time = 1    job

1/10 x   + 1/4 y  = 1/2      and

1/10 y  +  1/4 x  = 1          solve for x,y

Multiply the top equation by - 2.5

(-2.5)/10 x   - (2.5/4) y = -1.25    

-1/4 x  - 5/8 y =  -1 .25

 and add to the second equation to get

1/10 y  - 5/8 y = -.25    solve for y

4/40 y - 25/40 y = -.25

-21/40 y = - .25

y =  10/21  hr                           Substitute this into one of the original equations to find 'x'

 

1/10  (10/21) + 1/4 x = 1

1/21 + 1/4 x = 1

1/4 x = 20/21

x = 80/21                                         x,y =  ( 3 17/21  ,  10/21)

The model is an algebra tile model.

1st big tile is x², however, it is in black thus it's a negative sign. -x²
2 white tiles represent 2x
3 black tiles represent -3x
3 white small tiles represent + 3
1 black small tile represent -1

-x² + 2x - 3x + 3 - 1 ⇒ -x² - x + 2  Choice C.

Write "P (x) = -36x^2 + 900x - 1584" in standard vertex form, help please!

Answers

y = a(x – h)2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex;

in our case, P(x) = a
(x + b/2a)^(2) - Δ/4a ;

a = -36; b = 900; c = -1584;

b/2a = 900/-72 = -12.5;

Δ = b^(2) - 4ac = 810000 - 144*1584 = 581904 => -Δ/4a = 4041;

P(x) = (-36)(x - 12.5)^2 + 4041, where (12.5 , 4041) is the vertex;
