Solve the following equation by the quadratic formula. x 2 + x - 1 = 0

Answers

Answer 1

Answer

x is 1.62 or -0.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Quadratic Formula:

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

Given Quadratic Equation:

x² + x - 1 = 0

a = 1 (Quadratic coefficient)

b = 1 (Linear coefficient)

c = -1 (Constant coefficient)

By substituting values in the formula, we get:

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

Pringles exposed for being nazi corporation? Here’s evidence for my claim

A rectangular swimming pool has a volume of 1750 ft.³ water is being added to the pool at a rate of about 20 ft.³ per minute. use an equation in point slope form to determine about how long will it take to fill the pool completely if there were already 1125 gallons of water in the pool use the fact that one cubic foot of space holds about 7.5 gallons of water round the answer to the nearest integer if necessary

Answers

Answer:

You have a rectangular pool 15 X 30 X 5 feet

The floor of the pool is 15X30 = 450 ft2

Two sides are 5X15 = 2(75) = 150 ft2

Two sides are 5X30 = 2(150) = 300 ft2

Total area to be painted: 900 ft2

(900 ft2)/(250 ft2/gal) = 3.6 gallons

Since we can't purchase .6 gallons we

must purchase 4 gallons of paint

The volume of the pool is 15X30X5 = 2250 ft3

1 ft3 = 7.48 gallons

2250(7.48) = 16,830 gallons of water

An amusement park charges a $12 parking fee plus 25 per person. What is the total cost for 32 people?​

Answers

Answer:

The total amount for 32 people is 15.36

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that for 25 people is $12 so we need to find how much it would be for one person. you would need to divide $12 / 25. from this you would get 0.48, so for one person it's 48 cents. next you're going to subtract 25 from 32, this leaves you with seven people who aren't in a group of 25. you then multiply 7 × this equals to 3.36, add 3.36 to $12 and you'll get your total 15.36.

let f(x)= p+ 8/x-q. the line x=4 is a vertical asymptote to the graph of f. what is the value of q and p, if the y intercept is (0,4)?

Answers

Answer:

The value of q and p is 4 and -24  respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Being [tex]f(x)=\frac{p+8}{x-q}[/tex] , the line x=4 is a vertical asymptote to the graph of f(x).  The line r is an asymptote of a function if the graph of the function is infinitely close to the line r. That is, an asymptote is a line to which a function approaches indefinitely, without ever touching it.

Being a rational function that which can be expressed as the quotient of two polynomials, a vertical asymptote occurs when the denominator is 0, that is, where the function is not defined. In this case:

x - q= 0

Solving:

x= q

Being the line x=4 the vertical asymptote, then

4=q

Then the function f (x) is:

[tex]f(x)=y=\frac{p+8}{x-4}[/tex]

The y intercept is (0,4). This is, x= 0 and y=4. Replacing:

[tex]4=\frac{p+8}{0-4}[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]4=\frac{p+8}{-4}[/tex]

4*(-4)= p+8

-16= p+8

-16 - 8= p

-24= p

The value of q and p is 4 and -24  respectively.

Shel bought a $6,000 desk based on her income she can only afford to pay 600 per month The charge on the unpaid balance is 2% each month Calculate the balance outstanding at the end of month 2

Answers

Answer:

$5,030.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The balance outstanding at the end of any month is the due amount after adjusting for interest and loan repayment amount. The amount outstanding can be calculated as:

First month

Due amount = $6,000

Interest at 2% = $6,000*2% = $120

Loan repayment = $600

Reduction in balance = $600 - $120 = $480

Balance remaining = $6,000 - $480 = $5,520

Second month

Due amount = $5,520

Interest at 2% = $5,520*2% = $110.4

Loan repayment = $600

Reduction in balance = $600 - $110.4 = $489.60

Balance remaining = $5,520 - $489.60 = $5030.40

Hence, the balance outstanding at the end of month 2 is $5,030.40

Answer:

x= 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x + 9

f(x) = 36

Set the 2 equations equal to each other;

2x + 9 = 36

Subtract 9 from both sides;

2x = 27

Divide both sides by 2;

x = 13.5

Check:

f(x) = 2x + 9

f(13.5) = 2(13.5) + 9= 27 + 9 = 36

The highest elevation in a small country occurs on a mountain 1232 meters above sea level, while the lowest elevation in the same country occurs at -27 meters (below sea level). What is the difference in elevation between the highest and lowest points?

Answers

Answer: 1259 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Highest elevation = 1232 meters

Lowest elevation = -27 meters

The difference in elevation between the highest and lowest points will be:

= 1232 + 27

= 1259 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle will always add up to 180°, so all we have to do is find the missing variable.  

To do this, we first add up the two angles we do know.

—> 65 + 40 = 105      

Now that we have the total of the other two angles, simply subtract 105 from 180.

Write a quadratic equation with the given transformations from the parent function y = x2
4) Reflect over x-axis, shift to the left 5 units, shift up 7 units
5) Vertical stretch by a factor of 4, shift down 11 units
6) Vertical compression by a factor of, reflect over x-axis, shift to the right 2 units, shift up 3 units.

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

By Using the Transformations of the parabola

[tex]y = -(x+5)^2+7\\y=4x^{2} +7\\y = -(x-2)^2+3[/tex]

Vertical Translation  move the graph vertically - up or down

[tex]y = x^2+ k[/tex]

Horizontal Translation move the graph horizontally - left or right

[tex]y = (x - h)^2[/tex]

Reflection in x-axis  

flip the graph over the x-axis, (negates the y-values of the coordinates)

[tex]y = -(x^2)[/tex]

Reflection in y-axis

flip the graph over the y-axis,(negates the x-values of the coordinates)

[tex]y = (-x)^2[/tex]

Stretch or Compress Vertically  

stretches away from the x-axis or compresses toward the x-axis

[tex]y = a .x^2[/tex]

| a | > 1 is a stretch;

0 < | a | <1 is a compression

Stretch or Compress Horizontally

stretches away from the y-axis or compresses toward the y-axis

[tex]y=\frac{1}{a} x^{2}[/tex]

| a | > 1 is a compression by factor of 1/a;

0 < | a | <1 is a stretch by factor of 1/a

Now, we have [tex]y=x^2[/tex]

4). Reflect over x-axis, shift to the left 5 units, shift up 7 units

[tex]y = -(x+5)^2+7[/tex]

5) Vertical stretch by a factor of 4, shift down 11 units

[tex]y=4 x^{2} +7[/tex]

6) Vertical compression by a factor of, reflect over x-axis, shift to the right 2 units, shift up 3 units.

The translation of the given question is

f (x) = - 8x− 4 what is the slope y and the position coefficient f (x) = (6x− 12): 3 what is the slope y and the position coefficient

Answer:

We need to determine slope and position coefficient which is the intercept.

f (x) = - 8x− 4   we know that f(x) is y

slope intercept form of the line

y = -8x -4

slope = -8

intercept = -4

similarly

f (x) = 6x− 12

y = 6x -12

slope =6

intercept = -12

A brand of cereal had 1.21milligrams of iron per serving. Then they changed their recipe so they had 1.8mg of iron per serving. What was the percent increase in iron?

Given

Initial amount of iron in cereal per serving = 1.21mg

final  amount of iron in cereal per serving =1.8mg

Required

Percentage increase in iron

Increment = 1.8mg - 1.21mg

Increment = 0.59mg

% increase in iron = increment/original amount * 100%

% increase in iron = 0.59/1.21 * 100

% increase in iron = 0.4876 * 100

% increase in iron = 48.76%

Hence the percent increase in iron is 48.76%
