What are the exact solutions of x2 − 5x − 7 = 0, where x equals negative b plus or minus the square root of b squared minus 4 times a times c all over 2 times a

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x = \frac{5 + \sqrt{53}}{2}[/tex]  or  [tex]x = \frac{5 - \sqrt{53}}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x^2 - 5x - 7 = 0[/tex]

Required

Solve for x using:

[tex]x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

First, we need to identify a, b and c

The general form of a quadratic equation is:

[tex]ax^2 + bx + c = 0[/tex]

So, by comparison with [tex]x^2 - 5x - 7 = 0[/tex]

[tex]a = 1[/tex]     [tex]b = -5[/tex]      [tex]c = -7[/tex]

Substitute these values of a, b and c in

[tex]x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{-(-5) \± \sqrt{(-5)^2 - 4 * 1 * -7}}{2 * 1}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{5 \± \sqrt{25 +28}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{5 \± \sqrt{53}}{2}[/tex]

Split the expression to two

[tex]x = \frac{5 + \sqrt{53}}{2}[/tex]  or  [tex]x = \frac{5 - \sqrt{53}}{2}[/tex]

To solve further in decimal form, we have

[tex]x = \frac{5 + 7.28}{2}[/tex]  or  [tex]x = \frac{5 - 7.28}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{12.28}{2}[/tex]  or  [tex]x = \frac{-2.28}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 6.14[/tex] or [tex]x = -1.14[/tex]

A licensed nurse practitioner is instructed to give a patient 1500 milligrams of an antibiotic over a period of 36 hours. If the antibiotic is to be given every 2 hours starting immediately, how much antibiotic should be given in each dose? To answer this question, solve the equation 18x=1500.

Answers

Answer:

83.33 milligrams

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation, [tex] 18x = 1500 [/tex] represents the total dosage of antibiotics to be given to the patient in relation to the hours.

Thus, the each dosage = x.

Let's solve for x

[tex] 18x = 1500 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 18

[tex] \frac{18x}{18} = \frac{1500}{18} [/tex]

[tex] x = 83.33 milligrams [/tex] (nearest hundredth)

An x-method chart shows the product a c at the top of x and b at the bottom of x. Above the chart is the expression a x squared + b x + c. Consider the trinomial 6x2 + 13x + 6. The value of ac is . The value of b is . The two numbers that have a product of ac and a sum of b are 4 and .

Answers

Answer:

1. ac = 36

2. b = 13

3. 4 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6x² + 13x + 6

Required

Fill in the gaps

Solving (1): The value of AC

The general form of an equation is:

ax² + bx + c

By comparison:

a = 6

b = 13

c = 6

So,

ac = a * c

ac = 6 * 6

ac = 36

Solving (2): The value of b

In (1) above, we showed that

b = 13

Solving (3): Two numbers that satisfy product ac and sum b

We have that.

ac = 36

If one of the numbers is 4, then the other number is

Other number = 36/4

Other number = 9

Alternatively, we have that.

b = 13

If one of the numbers is 4, then the other number would be:

Other number = 13 - 4

Other number = 9

Answer:

ac = 36

b = 13

The two numbers that have a product of ac and a sum of b are 4 and 9

greatest value in the range for this situation?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest rental time is 5 hours, which is 10 half-hours. The value of C for h=10 is ...

  C = 45·10 +50 = 450 +50 = 500

The greatest value in the range for this situation is $500.

Luna entered a raffle for a new pair of running shoes. She purchased 20 tickets and was told that she had a 20% chance of winning. How many tickets were sold? P (Luna winning) = StartFraction Number of tickets purchased over Total number of tickets sold EndFraction. 20 percent = StartFraction 20 over x EndFraction. One-fifth = StartFraction 20 over x EndFraction. x = tickets

Answers

Answer:

100 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of winning = amount of tickets purchased/Total number of tickets

20% = 20/total number of tickets

20/100 = 20/total number of tickets

cross multiply

20 * total number of tickets = 20 * 100

20 *  total number of tickets = 100

total number of tickets sold = 100 tickets

What is the slope of AB in parallelogram ABCD?

Answers

it’s D i believe :) rise over run. go up 10, over 4. divisible by 2, so 5 over 2

The slope of the line [tex]\overline{AB}[/tex] is the rate at which the line rises at a point.

[tex]\mathrm{The \ slope \ of \ \overline{AB} \ is \ D.} \ \dfrac{5}{2}}[/tex]

Reasons:

The slope of a line is given by the ratio of the rise to the run of the line

The coordinates of point A = (-9, -4)

The coordinates of point B = (-5, 6)

The rise of the line [tex]\overline{AB}[/tex] = The difference in the y-values = (6 - (-4)) = 10

The run of the line [tex]\overline{AB}[/tex] = The difference in the x-values = (-5 - (-9)) = 4

[tex]Slope \ of \ \overline{AB}= \dfrac{Rise \ of \ line \ \overline{AB}}{Run \ of \ line \ \overline{AB}}[/tex]

Inequality: 4000= 305 + x50
Answer: 74 boxes

Explanation: To get 305 you add the weight of the cart and the weight of the worker

Then create the inequality
Subtract 305 from 4000 and you get 3695

Then since the 50 is trying to multiply against x then you do the inverse operation and divide 3695 by 50

Which equals out to 73.9 and since the point nine is higher then 5 then you round the 73 up by one which gives you 74

Consider a function f(x) such that f(5x) =x-5/5x-1. Find f(x) and hence write down the domain of f(x).

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{x - 25}{5x - 5}[/tex]

Domain: [tex]x \ne 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(5x) = \frac{x - 5}{5x - 1}[/tex]

Required

Determine f(x) and its domain

To determine f(x), we replace 5x with x in f(5x)

So, we have:

[tex]f(5x) = \frac{\frac{5x}{5} - 5}{5x - 1}[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = \frac{\frac{x}{5} - 5}{x - 1}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]f(x) = \frac{\frac{x - 25}{5}}{x - 1}[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = \frac{x - 25}{5} * \frac{1}{x-1}[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = \frac{x - 25}{5x - 5}[/tex]

To get the domain, we set the denominator as

[tex]5x - 5 \ne 0[/tex]

[tex]5x \ne 5[/tex]

[tex]x \ne 1[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation 7.5d=2.5d, Lin divides each side by 2.5d, and Elena subtracts 2.5d from each side. Will both moves lead to the solution? Explain your reasoning

Given:

7.5d = 2.5d

Lin divides each side by 2.5d, Lin:

7.5d / 2.5d = 2.5d / 2.5d

3 = 1

This can not be the solution to the problem because 3 can not be Equal to 1

Elena subtracts 2.5d from each side

7.5d = 2.5d

7.5d - 2.5d = 2.5d - 2.5d

5d = 0

Answers

Answer:

18. AE = 6

19. BG = 6

20. CF = 5

21. GF = 2

22. CE = 3

23. AC = 3·√5

24. A_F = 10

25. DA = 3·(√5 - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Whereby the point C is the center of the circle, we have;

CB = CG = CE = 3 = The radius of the circle with center at C

CE = 3

CF = √(4² + 3²) = 5 by Pythagoras' theorem

CF = 5

GF = CF - CG = 5 - 3 = 2

GF = 2

BG = CB + CG = 3 + 3 = 6

BG = 6

Whereby, BC is a tangent to the circle with center, C, we have;

A_F = √(8² + 6²) = 10 by Pythagoras' theorem

A_F = 10

AE = A_F - EF = 10 - 4 = 6

AE = 6

AC = √(6² + 3²) = 3·√5 by Pythagoras' theorem

AC = 3·√5

DA = AC - CD = 3·√5 - 3 = 3·(√5 - 1)

DA = 3·(√5 - 1).

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the amount of the school supply kit be A

The value of A is $ 25

The percentage discount of the school supply kit = 20 %

So , the value of the percentage amount is given by the equation

The cost of the school supply kit after discount = ( amount of the school supply kit - ( percentage discount of the school supply kit x amount of the school supply kit ) )

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

The cost of the school supply kit after discount = 25 - ( 20/100 x 25 )

The cost of the school supply kit after discount = 25 - ( 25 x 0.2 )

The cost of the school supply kit after discount = 25 - 5

The cost of the school supply kit after discount = $ 20

Therefore , the discounted price is $ 20

Hence ,

The amount of the school supply kit after the discounted price is $ 20
