Answer:
(x - 5)(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 3x - 10 =
= x² + 2x - 5x - 10
= x(x + 2) - 5(x + 2)
= (x - 5)(x + 2)
3t = 5(3-t)
3t = 15 - 5t
3t + 5t = 15
8t = 15
t = 15/8
t = 1 7/8
7/8 * 60 mins = 52.50 minutes
t = 1 hour and 52.5 minutes
It took Stu 1 hour and 52.5 minutes to hike the trail one way.

This explanation shows that the equation is solvable and there is not where in the steps we get a zero on the denominator.
</span><span><u>Explanation</u>
</span><span>The equation given in the statement is;
4/5+3/x=1/2
This equation can be solved as follows:
4/5+3/x=1/2
3/x=1/2-4/5=(5-8)/10
3/x= -3/10
Taking the reciprocal on both side of the equation;
x/3=-10/3
Multiplying by 3 both sides we get;

The potential energy, E, of the penny is given by E=mgh. The energy, Q, required to raise the temperature of an object by an amount ΔT is given by Q=mcΔT. We can equate these two to get the result but we must use proper units and include the 60%:
(0.6)mgh=mcΔT
We see we can divide out the mass from each side
0.6gh=cΔT, then 0.6gh/c=ΔT
(0.6)9.81(m/s²)50m/385(J/kg°C) = 0.7644°C
since this is the change in temperature and it started at 25°C we get
T=25.7644°C
As you can see the result does not depend on mass. The more massive the copper object the more potential energy it will have to contribute to the heat energy, but the more stuff there will be to heat up, and the effect is that the mass cancels.
<span>Amanda has 26 nickels and dimes.
We shall call nickels x and dimes y.
We can write the following equations:
x = 3y -2 or -x +3y = 2
x + y = 26
We can cancel out the x to give 4y = 28 or y = 7
If there are 26 coins in total and 7 of them are dimes then there must be 19 nickels.
The number of nickels (19) is two fewer than three times the number of dimes ( 3(7) - 2 = 19).</span>
