What is Quadratic Equation?

A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax²+ bx + c = 0. with a ≠ 0. Because it is a second-order polynomial equation, the fundamental theorem of algebra guarantees that it has at least one solution. The solution may be real or complex.

Given data ,

The polynomial function is of second degree with zeros of -7 and 6

So , x = -7 and x = 6

Let the function be f ( x ) where f ( x ) = ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )

Now , as x tends to infinity , the negative makes no such difference on the zeros of the function f ( x ) ,

And , f ( x ) = - ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )

Therefore , to find the polynomial function , f ( x ) = - ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )

f ( x ) = - [ x² - 6 x + 7 x - 42 ]

        = - [ x² + x - 42 ]

        = - x ² - x + 42

Hence , the polynomial function f ( x ) = - x ² - x + 42

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 11x + 121/4 = 125/4

x² + 11x + 121/4 - 125/4 = 0

x² + 11x - 1 = 0

after that apply quadratic formula

x = ( -b + or - √b² - 4ac ) ÷ 2a

x = (-11 + or - √11² - 4×1×-1 ) ÷ 2×1

Answer:

c = 11.3 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Square has all of the same sides, hence bobs speed will be the same for all of the sides.

All of the sides are equal in a square

=> Let's consider the two sides along with the diagonal a right angled triangle

=> [tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2[/tex]

Where c is the speed of Rob along the diagonal and b and c is the speed of Bob along the side

=> [tex]c^2 = 8^2+8^2[/tex]

=> [tex]c^2 = 64+64[/tex]

=> [tex]c^2 = 128\\[/tex]

Taking sq root on both sides

=> c = 11.3 mi/h

If it has a single zero that means it has to be just touching the x-axis with its tip.

We know that if it has only one zero, the discriminant equals 0.

So,

[tex]D=b^2-4ac=0\implies (-k)^2-4(1)(9)=0[/tex]

Solving for k,

[tex]k=\pm\sqrt{36}=\boxed{\pm{6}}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Total length of a board is 65 inches

It is sawed into two pieces such that one piece is 7 inches shorter than twice the length of the other piece.

Let x is the length of other piece and y is the length of first piece such that,

y = 2x-7 ....(1)

Also,

x+y = 65 .....(2)

Put the value of y from equation (1) to equation (2) such that,

x+2x-7 = 65

3x=65+7

3x=72

x = 24 inches

Put the value of x in equation (1)

y = 2(24)-7

y = 41 inches

So, the length of first piece is 41 inches while the length of other piece is 24 inches.

Answer:

Quantity (lbs) of type 1 candy  x = 8

Quantity (lbs) of type 2 candy  y = 17,5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let´s call  "x" quantity (in pounds) of candy type 1 in the mixture, and "y" quantity (in pounds ) of candy type 2, then according to the problem statement.

x  +  y  =  25,5

2,20*x  +  7,30*y = 5,70 * 25,5   ⇒  2,20*x  +  7,30*y = 145,35

Then we have a two equation system

x  +  y  =  25,5                                   ⇒   y = 25,5 - x

2,20*x  +  7,30*y = 145,35               ⇒ 2,20*x + 7,30* (25,5 - x ) = 145,35

2,20*x + 186,15 - 7,30*x = 145,35

5,1*x  = 40,8

x = 40,8/5,1

x = 8 lbs

And   y  =  25,5 - 8

y = 17,5 lbs

Answer:

first number(x) = 2 second number(y)= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an example of a simultaneous equation.

First write this word problem as equations, where x is the "first number" that you've mentioned and y is the "second number".

x + 2y = 14  (equation 1)

2x + y = 10  (equation 2)

This is solved using the elimination method.

We need to make one of the coefficients the same - in this case we can make y the same. In order to do this we need to multiply equation 2 by 2, so that y becomes 2y.

2x + y = 10 MULTIPLY BY 2

4x + 2y = 20 (this is now our new equation 2 with the same y coefficient)

Now subtract equation 1 from equation 2.

4x - x + 2y - 2y = 20 - 14  (2y cancels out here)

3x = 6

x = 2

Now we substitute our x value into equation 1 to find the value of y.

2 + 2y = 14

2y = 12

y = 6

Hope this has answered your question.

Answer:

6 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number =a

Let the second number =b

A first number plus twice a second number is 14.

Twice the first number plus the second totals 10.

We solve the two equations simultaneously

[tex]a+2b=14 \implies a=14-2b\\$Substitute into the second equation$\\2(14-2b)+b=10\\28-4b+b=10\\-3b=10-28\\-3b=-18\\b=6[/tex]

Recall:

a=14-2b

=14-2(6)

=14-12

a=2

The two numbers are 6 and 2.

Answer:

The proportion of these light bulbs that will last less than the advertised time is 18.94% or 0.1894

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do here is to calculate the z-score

Mathematically;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

= (1500-1550)/57 = -50/57 = -0.88

So the proportion we will need to find is;

P( z < -0.88)

We shall use the standard score table for this and our answer from the table is 0.1894 which is same as 18.94%

Solve the trigonometric equation by isolating the function and then taking the inverse. Use the period to find the full set of all solutions.

[tex]\theta = 135+180n[/tex]

[tex]n[/tex] is any integer value.

The value of [tex]n[/tex] cannot exceed 1 or be less than 0, because the value of [tex]\theta[/tex] must be between 0 and 360 degrees.

[tex]\theta = 135+180(0)[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 135[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 135+180(1)[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 315[/tex]

40 - 5 = 2x - x

35 = x

You reject the Null Hypothesis when you have a small P-Value. Here is an example!

Out of n= 43 students, the calculated mean is [tex]\frac{}{X}[/tex]= $66000

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the number 5 is a number that you get from 7 more than n, and 2 is the other divisor that means n must equal 10 and 7 less than 10 is 3.

When five times a number is divided by 7 more than the number and the result is 2, then the number is 14/3, which is solved using the linear equation in one variable 5x/(x+ 7) = 2, where x is the required number.

Linear equations are first-order equations. Lines in the coordinate system are determined by linear equations. A linear equation in one variable is defined as an equation with a homogeneous variable of degree 1 (i.e. only one variable).

In the question, we are asked to find a number, which satisfies the statement, "Five times a number is divided by 7 more than the number. The result of this division is 2".

We assume the number to be x.

Now we try to form a linear equation in one variable from the given statement.

Five times a number is 5x.

7 more than a number is x + 7.

We are said that five times a number is divided by 7 more than a number. This can be shown as 5x/(x + 7).

Now, the result is given as 2, which can be shown as:

5x/(x+ 7) = 2, which is the required linear equation in one variable.

To get the number, we solve the equation using the following steps:

5x/(x+ 7) = 2

or, {5x/(x+ 7)}*(x + 7) = 2*(x + 7) (Multiplying both sides by (x + 7))

or, 5x = 2x + 14 (Simplifying)

or, 5x - 2x = 2x + 14 - 2x (Subtracting 2x from both sides)

or, 3x = 14 (Simplifying)

or, 3x/3 = 14/3 (Dividing both sides by 3)

or, x = 14/3 (Simplifying)

∴ When five times a number is divided by 7 more than the number and the result is 2, then the number is 14/3, which is solved using the linear equation in one variable 5x/(x+ 7) = 2, where x is the required number.
