If he drains 1/8 of a gallon in 1/2, the amount he will drain in one hour is twice as much as 1/8.

Mateo will drain 2/8 (simplified: 1/4) of a gallon in one hour.

Just multiply numerator and denominator of the given rate by 2:

2(1/8) gallon        1/4 gallon
-----------------  =  ---------------- = 1/4 gallon per hour
2(1/2) hour)              1 hour

Solve the equation by completing the square. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. x2 – 4x = 5
Ksenya-84 [330]
Solve for x over the real numbers:
x^2 - 4 x = 5

Subtract 5 from both sides:
x^2 - 4 x - 5 = 0

x = (4 ± sqrt((-4)^2 - 4 (-5)))/2 = (4 ± sqrt(16 + 20))/2 = (4 ± sqrt(36))/2:
x = (4 + sqrt(36))/2 or x = (4 - sqrt(36))/2

sqrt(36) = sqrt(4×9) = sqrt(2^2×3^2) = 2×3 = 6:
x = (4 + 6)/2 or x = (4 - 6)/2

(4 + 6)/2 = 10/2 = 5:
x = 5 or x = (4 - 6)/2

(4 - 6)/2 = -2/2 = -1:

Answer:  x = 5 or x = -1

An oblique prism with a square base of edge length x units has a volume of One-halfx3 cubic units. Which expression represents t
lara [203]

Answer:one-half x units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Prism has a square base with length x\ units

If the volume of prism V=\frac{1}{2}x^3\ units

We know

Volume=base\ area\times height

Base area =x\times x=x^2\ units

height=\frac{Volume}{area}

height=\frac{\frac{1}{2}x^3}{x^2}

height=\frac{x}{2}\ units
