Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The two possible solutions are x = 7, or x = -2

which agree with answer a) in the list of options

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by moving all terms to one side of the equal sign, and then factoring out the constant term:

[tex]x^2-5x-14=0[/tex]

The constant term  "-14" has ossible factors: (-1), (1) (-2), (2), (-7), (7), (-14), (14) and we look for a pair whose combining results in "-5" (the coefficient of the middle term. We find (-7) and (2) the appropriate factors, so we use then to split the middle term and then factor by grouping:

[tex]x^2-5x-14=0\\x^2-7\,x+2\,x-14=0\\x(x-7)+2(x-7)=0\\(x-7)\,(x+2) = 0[/tex]

Then if the product of these two binomial factors is zero, it means that the first binomial is zero, or the second one is zero. That is:

( x - 7 ) = 0  which means x = 7

or

( x + 2 ) = 0   which means  x = -2

So the two possible solutions are x = 7, or x = -2

Answer 2

Answer:

            a.   -2  or  7

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x^2-5x=14\\\\x^2-5x-14=0\\\\x^2+2x-7x-14=0\\\\x(x+2)-7(x+2)=0\\\\(x+2)(x-7)=0\\\\x+2=0\quad\vee\quad x-7=0\\\\x=-2\quad\vee\quad x=7[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \ \ \ x-y=-2\sqrt{7} \ \ \ }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

it took me some time to understand the correct equations, I believe that you mean

[tex]x+y=4\\\\x^2+y^2=22\\\\x^4=y^4-176\sqrt{7}[/tex]

So let's play with these equations

[tex]x^4=y^4-176\sqrt{7}\\\\<=>y^4-x^4=176\sqrt{7}\\\\<=>y^4-x^4=(y^2)^2-(x^2)^2=(y^2-x^2)(y^2+x^2)=(y-x)(y+x)(x^2+y^2)\\\\=176\sqrt{7}[/tex]

So

[tex]x-y=-\dfrac{176\sqrt{7}}{(x+y)(x^2+y^2)}=-\dfrac{176\sqrt{7}}{4*22}=-2\sqrt{7}=-5.291503...[/tex]

A lighthouse flashes a beam of light once every 3/5 of a minute. How many times does it flash a beam of light in half an hour?

Answers

Answer:

Total number of flash = 50 flash

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken of a flash = 3/5 minute = 3/5 × 30 = 36 sec

Total time = 30 minute = 30 × 60= 1800 sec

Find:

Total number of flash in 30 minutes

Computation:

⇒ Total number of flash = Total time / Time taken of a flash

⇒ Total number of flash = 1800 / 36

Total number of flash = 50 flash

Answer:

m<ABC > m<ACB (angle property of a triangle)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: ΔABC

                  AB = AX

Prove: m<ABC > m<ACB

From the given diagram,

ΔABX is an isosceles triangle (two congruent sides and angles)

<AXB = m<ABX = [tex]90^{o}[/tex] (isosceles triangle property)

AC = AX + XC

Thus,

AC > AB

m<ABC = m1 + m3 ≥  [tex]90^{o}[/tex]

m<ACB < [tex]90^{o}[/tex] (acute angle property)

Therefore since in a triangle the longest side is opposite to the greatest angle, then;

m<ABC > m<ACB (angle property of a triangle)

the sum of the ages of an uncle and nephew 2 years ago was 40.In 2 years time from now the age of the uncle will be 3 times that of his nephew by then.Find their ages now

Answers

Answer:

Uncle is 34. Nephew is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let u equal the age of the uncle, and n equal the age of the nephew.

First, two years ago, the sum of their ages was 40. We can represent this by subtracting 2 from each variable. Thus:

[tex](u-2)+(n-2)=40[/tex]

[tex]u+n-4=40[/tex]

[tex]u+n=44[/tex]

Next, in two years time, the uncle will be three times as old as his nephew. We can represent this by adding 2. Thus:

[tex]u+2=3(n+2)[/tex]

We now have a system of equations and can solve accordingly.

First, from the first equation, we can determine that:

[tex]u=44-n[/tex]

We can substitute this into the second equation.

[tex](44-n)+2=3(n+2)[/tex]

[tex]46-n=3n+6[/tex]

[tex]40=4n[/tex]

[tex]n=10[/tex]

Thus, the nephew's age is 10.

And the uncle's age is 44-10 or 34.

Module 6 What is the line of best fit? Why do we want the sum of the residuals to be as close to zero as possible?

Answers

Answer:

zero residual equals zero mean

A line of best fit is a straight line that shows the appropriate correlation among scatter plots of a given data. It is majorly used when the plotted points are not linear, it can be used to express the relationship between dependent and independent variables.

The sum of the residuals should be close to zero because it shows that the line of best fit is accurately drawn. Thus, it implies that there is a linear relationship between the two variables. Since he residual is close to zero, the graph could be said to be a linear graph.

Question:

Scores on the Critical Reading part of the SAT exam in a recent year were roughly Normal with mean 495 and standard deviation 118 .

You choose an SRS of 100 students and average their SAT Critical Reading scores. If you do this many times, the standard deviation of the average scores you get will be close to

a. 118

b. 118/100=1.18

c. 118/√100= 11.8

d. cannot be determined

Answer:

The standard deviation of the sample would be  

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} \\\\s = \frac{118}{\sqrt{100}} \\\\s = 11.8[/tex]

The correct option is (c)

Therefore, the standard deviation of the average scores you get will be close to 11.8

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information,  

The population mean SAT critical reading score is

[tex]\mu = 495[/tex]

The population standard deviation is

[tex]\sigma = 118[/tex]

You choose an SRS of 100 students and average their SAT Critical Reading score.

[tex]n = 100[/tex]

Since the sample size is quite large then according to the central limit theorem,

The mean sample will be the same as the population mean  SAT critical reading score.

[tex]\bar{x} = \mu = 495[/tex]

The standard deviation of the sample would be  

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} \\\\s = \frac{118}{\sqrt{100}} \\\\s = 11.8[/tex]

The correct option is (c)

Therefore, the standard deviation of the average scores you get will be close to 11.8

In triangle △JKL, ∠JKL is right angle, and KM is an altitude. JK=24 and JM=18, find JL.

Answers

Answer:

JL = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the above question that:

In triangle △JKL, ∠JKL is right angle, and KM is an altitude. JK=24 and JM=18, find JL.

From the attached diagram, we can see that

JL : JK = JK: JM

Therefore,

JL/ JK = JK /JM

Where JL = Unknown

JK = 24

JM = 18

JL/ 24 = 24/18

Cross Multiply

24 × 24 = JL × 18

Divide both sides by 18

JL = (24 × 24) /18

JL = 576/18

JL = 32

$8000 worth of sales

Step-by-step explanation:

We know Jack needs to make $1000 in 40 hours. We also know he makes 5% commission, meaning he gets 5% of the money from a sale, and that he makes $15/h.

First, lets find how much made from his hourly pay.

40 * $15 = $600

Now subtract that from how much he needs,

$1000 - $600 = $400

He still needs $400 from commissions. We know he makes 5% commission, so we can find the total value of the sales he'd need by multiplying 400 by 20 since 5% x 20 = 100%, aka the total value. $400 x 20 = $8000 in sales.

If ∠R is given and the values of r and q are given, then explain whether the Law of Sines or the Law of Cosines should be used to solve for ∠Q.

Answers

Answer:

To solve a triangle is to find the lengths of each of its sides and all its angles. The sine rule is used when we are given either a) two angles and one side, or b) two sides and a non-included angle. The cosine rule is used when we are given either a) three sides or b) two sides and the included angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

We just saw how to find an angle when we know three sides. It took quite a few steps, so it is easier to use the "direct" formula (which is just a rearrangement of the c2 = a2 + b2 − 2ab cos(C) formula). It can be in either of these forms:

cos(C) =  a2 + b2 − c22ab

cos(A) =  b2 + c2 − a22bc

cos(B) =  c2 + a2 − b22ca

Answer:

Law of cosines, two sides and the included angle known

Tim has 39 pairs of headphones and 13 music players. Tim wants to sell all the headphones and music players in identical packages what is the greatest number of packages time can make

Answers

Answer:

He will have 13 packages containing 3 pairs of headphones and 1 music player each.

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 39 pairs of headphones and 13 music players.

He wants to sell both set of items in identical packages.

To do this he has to divide them in such a way that the same number of both set of objects are in every box.

Let us find the ratio of the pairs of headphones to music players:

39 : 13 = 3 : 1

Therefore, dividing the pairs of headphones into 3 parts and the music players into 1 part, he can have identical packages.

So, he will have 13 packages containing 3 pairs of headphones and 1 music player each.

Which of the following are roots of the polynomial function?
Check all that apply.
F(x) = x^3-6x^+7x-2

Answers

Answer:

C, D, and F

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots of the cubic polynomial are 1, (5+√17)/2, and (5-√17)/2 options (C), (D), and (F) are correct.

What is polynomial?

Polynomial is the combination of variables and constants systematically with "n" number of power in ascending or descending order.

[tex]\rm a_1x+a_2x^2+a_3x^3+a_4x^4..........a_nx^n[/tex]

We have a cubic or third-degree polynomial:

F(x) = x³ - 6x² + 7x - 2

To find the all possible roots of the cubic polynomial

By using the trial and error method:

Plug x = 1

F(1) = 1 - 6 + 7 - 2

F(1) = 8 - 8

F(1) =0

x = 1 is one of the roots of the polynomial.

We can write the cubic polynomial in the factored form:

F(x) = (x - 1)(x² -5x + 2)

We have a quadratic polynomial:

= x² -5x + 2

To find the roots of the quadratic polynomial use the quadratic formula:

a= 1, b = -5, and c =2

[tex]\rm x = \dfrac{-b \pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]\rm x = \dfrac{-(-5) \pm\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(2)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

After solving:

x = (5+√17)/2

x = (5-√17)/2

Thus, the roots of the cubic polynomial are 1, (5+√17)/2, and (5-√17)/2 options (C), (D), and (F) are correct.

Liam wants to treat some friends to lunch. He has $50 and knows that lunch will cost about $8 per person, p. How many people can Liam buy lunch for?Part A- Write and solve an inequality to represent the Situation

Answers

Answer:

T ≥ 8x

Liam can buy lunch for 6 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of people Liam can buy lunch for.

Given;

Lunch cost per person r = $8 per person

The total amount he has T = $50

The cost of buying lunch for c people is;

C = $8 × x

C = 8x

Therefore, to be able to buy lunch for them, the total cost C must be less than the total amount he has.

T ≥ C

Substituting C, we have;

T ≥ 8x

50 ≥ 8x ,.......1

Solving the inequalities;

8x ≤ 50

x ≤ 50/8

x ≤ 6.25

To the nearest whole number;

x ≤ 6

Answers

Hey there! :)

Answer:

C) 74 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

MT is congruent to KT because the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other. Therefore:

8y + 18 = 12y - 10

Subtract 8y from both sides:

18 = 4y - 10

Add 10 to both sides:

28 = 4y

Divide both sides by 4:

28/4 = 4y/4

y = 7 units. Plug this into the equation for MT:

8(7) + 18 = 74 units.

Answer:

74

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equations

8y + 18 = 12y -10

Combine like terms

28 = 4y

Divide each side by 4

y=7

Plug in the value of y in the equation of 8y + 18 since that's the value for MT

8(7) + 18 = 74
