If bc = 4x – 5 and cd = 2x + 7, find x.

How is the equation of this circle written in standard form? x2 + y2 - 6x + 14y = 142 a) (x - 3)2 + (y + 7)2 = 200 b) (x+ 3)2 + (y - 7)2 = 200 (x - 6)2 + (y + 14)2 = 142 d) (x+6)2 + (y- 14)2 = 142

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 25 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shape of a cone whose base diameter and height are always equal. how fast is the height of the pile increasing when the pile is 14 ft high? (round your answer to two decimal places.) ft/min

Titus works at a hotel. part of his job is to keep the complimentary pitcher of water at least half full and always with ice. when he starts his shift, the water level shows 4 gallons, or 128 cups of water. as the shift progresses, he records the level of the water every 10 minutes. after 2 hours, he uses a regression calculator to compute an equation for the decrease in water. his equation is w –0.414t + 129.549, where t is the number of minutes and w is the level of water. according to the equation, after about how many minutes would the water level be less than or equal to 64 cups?
