Answer: Factoring x2+8x+17
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, +8x its coefficient is 8 .
The last term, "the constant", is +17
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 17 = 17
Step-2 : Find two factors of 17 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 8 .
-17 + -1 = -18
-1 + -17 = -18
1 + 17 = 18
17 + 1 = 18
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:
2.1 Find the Vertex of y = x2+8x+17
Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex . Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) . We know this even before plotting "y" because the coefficient of the first term, 1 , is positive (greater than zero).
Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.
Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.
For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is -4.0000
Plugging into the parabola formula -4.0000 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :
y = 1.0 * -4.00 * -4.00 + 8.0 * -4.00 + 17.0
or y = 1.000
Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :
Root plot for : y = x2+8x+17
Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={-4.00}
Vertex at {x,y} = {-4.00, 1.00}
Function has no real rootsvSolving x2+8x+17 = 0 by Completing The Square .
Subtract 17 from both side of the equation :
x2+8x = -17
Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of x , which is 8 , divide by two, giving 4 , and finally square it giving 16
Add 16 to both sides of the equation :
On the right hand side we have :
-17 + 16 or, (-17/1)+(16/1)
The common denominator of the two fractions is 1 Adding (-17/1)+(16/1) gives -1/1
So adding to both sides we finally get :
x2+8x+16 = -1
Adding 16 has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :
x2+8x+16 =
(x+4) • (x+4) =
(x+4)2
Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since
x2+8x+16 = -1 and
x2+8x+16 = (x+4)2
then, according to the law of transitivity,
(x+4)2 = -1
We'll refer to this Equation as Eq. #2.2.1
The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.
Note that the square root of
(x+4)2 is
(x+4)2/2 =
(x+4)1 =
x+4
Now, applying the Square Root Principle to Eq. #2.2.1 we get:
x+4 = √ -1
Subtract 4 from both sides to obtain:
x = -4 + √ -1
In Math, i is called the imaginary unit. It satisfies i2 =-1. Both i and -i are the square roots of -1
Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative
x2 + 8x + 17 = 0
has two solutions:
x = -4 + √ 1 • i
or
x = -4 - √ 1 • i

Find the value of x. Please help!
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the triangle similarity theorem
x/x+3 = x+3/12
Cross multiply
12x = (x+3)(x+3)
12x = x²+3x+3x+9
12x = x²+6x+9
x²+6x+9-12x = 0
x²-6x+9 = 0
Factorize
x²-3x-3x+9 = 0
x(x-3)-3(x-3) = 0
x - 3 = 0
x = 3 twice
Hence the value of x is 3
Given the following exponential function, identify whether the change represents growth or decay, and determine the percentage rate of increase or decrease.
y=57(0.4)^x
Answer:
Decay, 60%
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that the exponential function is written in the form [tex]y=ab^x[/tex]. In this problem, a=57 and b=0.4. A function is considered a growth function when [tex]b>1[/tex]. Since 0.4 not greater than 1, this is an exponential decay function.
Now, to find the rate of decrease we can use part of the form [tex]y=a(1-r)^x[/tex].
[tex]1-r[/tex] represents the percentage decrease, in this case, 0.4. If that entire term is 0.4, we need to solve for [tex]r[/tex].
[tex]1-r=0.4\\r=0.6[/tex]
So, the rate of percentage decrease is 60%.

Help!!! Find c.
Round to the nearest tenth:
Answer:
[tex]c = 14.9cm[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]b = 10cm[/tex]
[tex]B = 12^{\circ}[/tex]
[tex]A = 150^{\circ}[/tex]
Required
Determine the length of c
First, we calculate C (the third angle of the triangle).
[tex]C = 180 - A - B[/tex]
[tex]C = 180 - 150 - 12[/tex]
[tex]C = 18^{\circ}[/tex]
Using Sine's law, we make use of:
[tex]\frac{sin\ B}{b} = \frac{sin C}{c}[/tex]
By substituting values, we have:
[tex]\frac{sin\ 12}{10} = \frac{sin 18}{c}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]c* sin\ 12 = 10 * sin\ 18[/tex]
Make c the subject
[tex]c = \frac{10 * sin\ 18}{sin\ 12}[/tex]
[tex]c = \frac{10 * 0.3090}{0.2079}[/tex]
[tex]c = 14.9cm[/tex] approximated
I solved it myself and my result is (n+1)/n. Why is that 1/2 there? An explanation would be great if possible. Thanks!
Answer:
The product of (k + 1) series starts with 3 (because k = 2) and you need 2 to be multiplied to this in order to get (n + 1)!
Therefore you need to multiply 2 and 1/2 to make it right. 2 completes the factorial and 1/2 remains.

The ratio of the number of girls to the number of boys was 4 to 5 if 1,530 students were present how many were girls and how many were boys?
Answer:
680 girls and 850 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
the ratio of girls is 4/9
then we can find the number of girls (G) in the group of 1530 students using proportions:
4 / 9 = G / 1530
solving for G by multiplying both sides of the proportion by 1530, we get:
G = 4 * 1530 / 9 = 680
So there were:
680 girls and 1530 - 680 = 850 boys
Answer:
the answer will be
girls 680
boys 850
Hair colors are an example of which type of data?
Answer:
Nominal data are used to label variables without any quantitative value. Common examples include male/female (albeit somewhat outdated), hair color, nationalities, names of people, and so on. In plain English: basically, they're labels (and nominal comes from "name" to help you remember). You have brown hair (or brown eyes).

A blogger had 400 subscribers to her blog in January. The number of subscribers has grown by a factor of 1.5 every month since then. Write a sequence to represent the number of subscribers in the 3 months that followed.
Answer:
[tex]600, 900, 1350[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]a = 400[/tex] -- initial subscribers
[tex]b = 1.5[/tex] -- growth factor
Required
Determine the number of subscribers in the next three months
To do this, we make use of:
[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]
In this case:
x is the number of months
y is the number of subscribers
So:
when x = 1;
[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]
[tex]y = 400 * 1.5^1[/tex]
[tex]y = 400 * 1.5[/tex]
[tex]y = 600[/tex]
when x = 2
[tex]y = 400 * 1.5^2[/tex]
[tex]y = 400 * 2.25[/tex]
[tex]y = 900[/tex]
when x= 3
[tex]y = 400 * 1.5^3[/tex]
[tex]y = 400 * 3.375[/tex]
[tex]y = 1350[/tex]
So, the next three number of subscribers is:
[tex]600, 900, 1350[/tex]

There will be 6 people at Eli's cake party. You want to bake enough cake so that each person you feed will eat at least 1/5 of the cake. What is the minimum number of cakes to bake?
Please put the procedure with operations used. :(
Answer: 2 cakes.
Step-by-step explanation:
There will be a total number of 6 people at Eli's cake party.
You want that each one of these 6 people to eat at least 1/5 of a cake.
Then you need to make, at least, 6 times 1/5 of a cake.
This is equal to:
6*(1/5) of a cake = 6/5 of a cake.
And we can rewrite this as:
(6/5) of a cake = (5 + 1)/5 of a cake = (5/5 + 1/5) of a cake = 1 cake + 1/5 of a cake.
But you can not bake only 1/5 of a cake, we need whole numbers.
Then we need to round up to the next whole number, which is 2.
This means that you need to bake at least 2 cakes.

What is the Volume of a Rectangle?The volume of the rectangle is given by the product of the length of the rectangle and the width of the rectangle and the height of the rectangle
Volume of Rectangle = Length x Width x Height
Volume of Rectangle = Area of Rectangle x Height
Given data ,
To find the volume of the figure, we need to calculate the volumes of the two rectangular prisms separately and then add them together.
The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula:
Volume = length x width x height
For the first prism:
Length = 12 centimeters
Width = 9 centimeters
Height = 2 centimeters
Volume of first prism = 12 cm x 9 cm x 2 cm = 216 centimeters³
For the second prism:
Length = 10 centimeters
Width = 9 centimeters
Height = 8 centimeters
Volume of second prism = 10 cm x 9 cm x 8 cm = 720 centimeters³
Now, we add the volumes of the two prisms together to get the total volume of the figure:
216 cubic centimeters + 720 cubic centimeters = 936 centimeters³
Hence , the rectangular prism has volume of 936 cm³

Pls take a look at the picture
Each of these limits correspond to the derivative of some function f(x) at a point x = a.
Recall the limit definition of a function f(x) :
f '(x) = lim [h → 0] ( f(x + h) - f(x) ) / h
Then if x = a, we get
f '(a) = lim [h → 0] ( f(a + h) - f(a) ) / h
From here, it's easy to identify what each function and point should be:
(a) f (a + h) = (1 + h)¹ʹ³ → f(x) = x ¹ʹ³ and a = 1
(that's a 1/3 in the exponent)
(b) f (a + h) = cos(π + h) → f(x) = cos(x) and a = π
(c) f (a + h) = 5 (4 + h)⁵ → f(x) = 5x ⁵ and a = 4
(d) f (a + h) = exp(4h) = exp(4 (0 + h)) → f(x) = exp(4x) and a = 0
(where exp(x) = eˣ )
