out the smallest possible value of K

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The expanded form of [tex](x+s)(x-t)[/tex] is [tex]x^2+Kx-40[/tex].

Where, s, t, K are positive integers.

To find:

The smallest possible value of K.

Solution:

The expanded form of [tex](x+s)(x-t)[/tex] is [tex]x^2+Kx-40[/tex]. It means,

[tex](x+s)(x-t)=x^2+Kx-40[/tex]

[tex]x^2-tx+sx-st=x^2+Kx-40[/tex]

[tex]x^2+(s-t)x-st=x^2+Kx-40[/tex]

On comping both sides, we get

[tex]K=s-t[/tex]              ...(i)

K is a positive integer if s>t.

And

[tex]st=40[/tex]

The factor pairs of 40 are (1,40), (2,20), (4,10), (5,8), (8,5), (10,4), (20,2) and (40,1).

Since s>t, therefore the possible values for (s,t) are (8,5), (10,4), (20,2) and (40,1).

Using (i), find the value of K for each factor pair.

[tex]K=8-5=3[/tex]  

[tex]K=10-4=6[/tex]      

[tex]K=20-2=18[/tex]          

[tex]K=40-1=39[/tex]          

Therefore, the smallest possible value of K is 3.

Solve the system by elimination.
{y= 16x+44
{y= -x^2 +8x+28

Answers

Answer:

x= -4, y= -20

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 16x+44

(y= -x²+8x+28) * (-1)

multiply both sides by -1  

y= 16x+44

-y= x²-8x-28

add the equations to eliminate y

y-y= x²+16x-8x+44-28

0= x² +8x +16 this is the same with (x+4)²=0 so x= -4

go back to the first equation and substitute x with -4 and solve for y

y= 16*(-4) +44 = -64+44 = -20

An employee puts $3,000 into a retirement fund that offers 7% interest compounded annually. The employee makes no other deposits or withdrawals. Which amount is closest to the interest that the employee will have earned after 4 years?

Answers

Answer:

$840

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Principal = $3000

Rate= 7%

Time= 4 years

The expression for the simple interest is

SI= PRT/100

substitute

SI= 3000*7*4/100

SI= 30*7*4

SI= $840

Hence the interest is $840

640 divided by 16= 16 divided by 16 =1

A student has a total of 233 points on three tests. The scores on the first and second tests are the same. The third score exceeds the second (or the first) by 14. Find the three scores.

Answers

Answer:

Let the scores on the first two test be x

Let score for third test be 14 exceeds second( or first) = x + 14

Total = 233

x + x + (x + 14) = 233

3x + 14 = 233

3x = 219

x = 73

Score of the third test = x + 14 = 73 + 14 = 87

Therefore, the scores are 73, 73, 87

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we need to use SOH, CAH, TOA

we have the adjacent and hypotonouse so it's easiest to use CAH

let theta (angle) = x

cos(x)=4/6

to cancel the cos mulitply both sides by cos^-1 (2nd --> cos)

x=48.1896851

which rounds to 48.2

Answers

Answer:

odd; even; even; odd

Step-by-step explanation:

The answers are odd, even, even, and odd respectively the graph is symmetric about the y axis it is an even function.

What is a function?

It is defined as a special type of relationship and they have a predefined domain and range according to the function every value in the domain is related to exactly one value in the range.

We know when the graph is symmetric about the origin it is an off function.

When the graph is symmetric about the y axis it is an even function.

When f(-x) = f(x) it is an even function

When f(-x) = -f(x) it is an odd function.

Thus, the answers are odd, even, even, and odd respectively the graph is symmetric about the y axis it is an even function.

Answer:

The interval is [4,7]

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is given by

f(x2) - f(x1)

-------------------

x2 -x1

We want the rate of change to be 56

f(x2) - f(x1)

-------------------  = 56

x2 -x1

We also know that the x2 is 7  so f(x2) = 192

192 - f(x1)

-------------------  = 56

7 -x1

192 - f(x1) = 56( 7 -x1)

192 - f(x1) = 392 -56x1

Now we need to pick points from the table and see where it is true

(6,96)

192 - 96 = 392 -56*6

96=56  False

( 5,28)

192 - 28 = 392 -56*5

164=112  False

(4,24)

192 - 24 = 392 -56*4

168=168  True

The interval is [4,7]
