Oil was accidentally spilled into a swimming pool that is 25.0 m wide and 30.0 m long. If 0.50 quarts of oil is in the pool, how thick (in cm) is the oil?

8y^50

step-by-step explanation:

60 for the first and 130 for the second

step-by-step explanation:

let's call the solutions x₁ = (5 - 2√7)/3 and x₂ = (5 + 2√7)/3

then the equation is (x-x₁)(x-x₂) = 0

if you fill that in you get a lot of numbers which you can recognize as ax²+bx+c=0.

step-by-step explanation:

you can see that a=1 (there is just an x²)

b = (-5 -2√7 + 2√7 - 5)/3 = -10/3

c = -2√7)/3 ) * (-5+2√7)/3) = -1/3

so your answer is 3x^2 – 10x – 1 = 0
