If the product of the two roots of the equation : (k - 2) x2 - 6 X + 12 = 0 is 3, then k =
(a) zero
(b) 4
(c) 6
(d) 38​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic equation in standard form

ax² + bx + c = 0

Then the product of the roots = [tex]\frac{c}{a}[/tex]

(k - 2)x² - 6x + 12 = 0 ← is in standard form

with a = k - 2 and c = 12 , thus

[tex]\frac{12}{k-2}[/tex] = 3 ( multiply both sides by (k - 1) )

12 = 3(k - 2) = 3k - 6 ( add 6 to both sides )

18 = 3k ( divide both sides by 3 )

6 = k → (c)

Shayla is going to paint a wall. The wall is 23 feet long by 8 feet high. A gallon of paint costs $11 and covers 320 square feet of area.

If the wall requires two coats of paint, what is the minimum cost of painting Shayla's wall?

PLs answer and epxlain how you got it

Answers

Answer: $22

Step-by-step explanation:

The wall is 23 ft by 8 ft, so if you multiply both sides of the rectangle together, you get the area.

23 * 8 = 184 ft^2

Since the wall requires 2 coats of paint, that means you'll just need to double the area you need to cover (since you're covering it twice).

184 * 2 = 368 ft^2

Now that we know how much square feet of area we need to cover, we can try and figure out how many gallons of paint we need to cover said area.

One gallon of paint covers 320 ft^2, so we can divide the area we need to cover (368) by the area a single gallon can cover (320) to get the amount of gallons we need to cover the wall.

368 / 320 = 1.15 gallons

To cover the wall twice, we need 1.15 gallons of paint. Assuming we can't buy 0.15 of a gallon, we will just need to buy two full gallons. Each gallon is $11, so two gallons each costing $11 is:

2 * 11 = $22

Side note: IF you can buy 0.15 of a gallon, then just multiply 1.15 * 11 = $12.65

What is the chain rule in probability for two events?

For two events A and B:

The chain rule states that the probability that A and B both occur is given by:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B|A) = P(B)P( A|B)[/tex]

Which pair of events are called independent events?

When one event's occurrence or non-occurrence doesn't affect occurrence or non-occurrence of other event, then such events are called independent events.

Symbolically, we have:

Two events A and B are said to be independent iff we have:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)[/tex]

For this case, let we define two events:
A = event of rolling a 4 in first rollB = event of rolling a number less than 3 in second roll

Then A and B are independent as their outcomes are not directly related or prone to affect each other assumingly.

Thus, probability of rolling a 4, then rolling a number less than 3 is:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)[/tex]

Total number of outcomes for any roll = n(S) = 6

Favorable number of outcomes for event A = n(A) = 1 (since a 4 can occur in 1 way out of 6 results)

Thus, P(A) = n(A)/n(S) = 1/6

And, favorable number of outcomes for event B = n(B) = 2 (since numbers less than 3 are only 1 and 2, so two outcomes possible)

Thus, P(B) = n(B)/n(S) = 2/6

Hence, probability of rolling a 4, then rolling a number less than 3 is:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B) = \dfrac{1}{6} \times \dfrac{2}{6} = \dfrac{2}{36} = \dfrac{1}{18}[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that if we will roll a 4, then rolling next a number less than 3 is given by: Option D: 1/18

Answers

Answer:

They will both have paid the same amount after 4 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that they will pay the same amount after x months

∵ Billy pays $30 for his new phone

∵ He only pays $12.50 each month

→ Find how much he will pay in x month

He will pay → 30 + 12.50x

∵ Annie got her new phone for free

∵ She only pays $20 a month

→ Find how much she will pay in x month

She will pay → 20x

∵ They will pay the same amount

→ Equate their expressions above

20x = 30 + 12.50x

→ Subtract 12.50x from both sides

∵ 20x - 12.50x = 30 + 12.50x - 12.50x

∴ 7.50x = 30

→ Divide both sides by 7.50

x = 4

They will both have paid the same amount after 4 months

Each point does NOT ALWAYS give the same amount of tickets.

11 point would most likely give 90 tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 points give 18 tickets = 9 tickets per point

3 points give 27 tickets = 9 tickets per point

9 points give 72 tickets = 8 tickets per point

You can add the 2 point value with the 9 point values to find out many point it takes to get to 90 tickets.

18(2 tickets) + 72(9 tickets) = 90(11 tickets)

Answer:

Im, not as sure, but I think it's 10 points!

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide the tickets by the points, they always come up as a whole number ( 9, 9 , then 8.) To be honest, I was a little stuck, but after messing around,, if you divide 90 by 10, you get a whole number, 9. so I was just thinking this would be right? Maybe?

Which equation describes a line perpendicular to line r that passes through the point (3,-6) x-3y=21, 3x+y=3, 3x-y=15, 3x-y=3

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Missing in the question is the slope of line r.

We'll assume that the slope (m) of line r is

[tex]m = -\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

When two lines are perpendicular, their slope are related in:

[tex]m_2 = -1/m_1[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = -1/\frac{-1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = -1 * -3[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = 3[/tex]

The equation of the (3,-6) is:

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

Where

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (3,-6)[/tex]

So:

[tex]y - (-6) = 3(x - 3)[/tex]

[tex]y +6 = 3x - 9[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = 3x - 9 - 6[/tex]

[tex]y = 3x - 15[/tex]

Kimoni wants to purchase a pair of shoes that are on sale for 10% off the regular price
of $64.00. Which is the sale price of the shoes?

Answers

64 * 0.10 = 6.4
64 - 6.4 = $57.60

Answer:

the price of the pair of shoes are $57.60

Step-by-step explanation:

So you first need to find out what 10% is in $64 so your going to multiply 0.1 (10% in decimal form is 0.1 ) by 64 to get 10% of the original price.

64 * 0.1 = $6.40

so now we are going to subtract $6.40 from $64 for the sale price:

$64.00 - $6.40 = $57.60

so the sale price is $57.60

2x+13

Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

When I was first introduced to algebra, One thing that had me stumped for the longest time is terms like "2x".  This is because nobody explained to me that saying "2x" and similar terms implies a multiplication.  so "2x" actually means "2 × x".  I only mention this because I thought maybe it would help.

To solve it then, all we need to do then is think of "x" as meaning five, and it being multiplied by 2

We're given this:

[tex]2x + 13[/tex]

which you can also read as this:

[tex]2 \times x + 13[/tex]

We're told x equals five, so we can say:

[tex]2 \times 5 + 13[/tex]

Remember when solving this, that multiplication and division always come before addition and subtraction, so let's do the multiplication:

[tex]10 + 13[/tex]

and then add it up:

[tex]23[/tex]

So the final answer is twenty-three.

A smoke jumper jumps from a plane that is 1900 ft above the ground. The function h=-16t+1900 gives the​ jumper's height h in feet during the free fall at t seconds. a.

What is a reasonable domain and range for the function​ h? a. The jumper is in free fall for nothing s if the parachute opens at 1000 ft

Answers

Answer:

a) The jumper opens the parachute in 7.5 seconds.

b) The jumper opens the parachute in approximately 7.706 seconds.

c) There are two possible choices for the function:

Case a): [tex]Dom\{h(t)\} = [0\,s,7.5\,s][/tex], [tex]Ran\{h(t)\}=[1000\,ft,1900\,ft][/tex]

Case b): [tex]Dom\{h(t)\} = [0\,s,7.706\,s][/tex], [tex]Ran\{h(t)\}=[950\,ft,1900\,ft][/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The equation presented in statement is incorrect. The correct formula for free fall is:

[tex]h(t)=-16\cdot t^{2}+1900[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.

[tex]h[/tex] - Height above the ground, measured in feet.

a) If we know that [tex]h(t) = 1000\,ft[/tex], then the final instant of the free fall stage is:

[tex]-16\cdot t^{2}+1900 = 1000[/tex]

[tex]16\cdot t^{2} = 900[/tex]

[tex]t = 7.5\,s[/tex]

The jumper opens the parachute in 7.5 seconds.

b) How long is the jumper in free fall if the parachute opens at 950 ​ft?

If we know that [tex]h(t) = 950\,ft[/tex], then the final instant of the free fall stage is:

[tex]-16\cdot t^{2}+1900 = 950[/tex]

[tex]16\cdot t^{2} = 950[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 7.706\,s[/tex]

The jumper opens the parachute in approximately 7.706 seconds.

c) There are two possible choices for the function:

Case a): [tex]Dom\{h(t)\} = [0\,s,7.5\,s][/tex], [tex]Ran\{h(t)\}=[1000\,ft,1900\,ft][/tex]

similar polygons: For two polygons to be similar, both of the following must be true:

Corresponding angles are congruent.

Corresponding sides are proportional.

Describe the process you used to find your answer.

Answers

Answer:

484 students

Step-by-step explanation:

The event coordinator asks you to determine how many students participated in the track-and-field day. The total number of students in seventh and eighth grade combined is 584; 5/8 of them are seventh graders and 3/8 of them are eighth graders. If 4/5 of the seventh graders participated in track-and-field day and 7/8 of the eighth graders participated, about how many total students participated? Describe the process you used to find your answer.

Solution:

The total number of students = 584

Number of seventh grade students = 5/8 * total number of students = 5/8 * 584 = 365 students

Number of eighth grade students = 3/8 * total number of students = 3/8 * 584 = 219 students

Number of the seventh graders that participated in track-and-field day = 4/5 * 365 = 292 students

Number of the eighth graders that participated in track-and-field day = 7/8 * 219 = 191.625 students ≈ 192 students

Total students that participated = 292 + 192 = 484 students

Answer:

Answer:

484 students

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of students = 584

Number of seventh grade students = 5/8 * total number of students = 5/8 * 584 = 365 students

Number of eighth grade students = 3/8 * total number of students = 3/8 * 584 = 219 students

Number of the seventh graders that participated in track-and-field day = 4/5 * 365 = 292 students

Number of the eighth graders that participated in track-and-field day = 7/8 * 219 = 191.625 students ≈ 192 students

The position of an open-water swimmer is shown in the graph. The shortest route to the shoreline is one that is perpendicular to the shoreline. Write an equation that represents this path.

Answers

Answer:

An equation that represents this path is described below in detail.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equalization that describes the pathway of the swimmer to the shoreline can be described in the slope-intercept pattern, given as.

Where,

Slope (m) = the adverse reciprocal of the incline of the shoreline, considering it is perpendicular to it = ??

y-intercept (b) = ??

Find the incline of the shoreline using, (0, 1) and (4, 4):

.

Considering the incline of the shoreline is ¾. The incline of the pathway of the swimmer would be the adverse reciprocal of ¾.

The adverse reciprocal of ¾ = -⁴/3.

The incline of the swimmer's path = -⁴/3.

Applying the coordinate of the position of the swimmer (6, 1), and the incline of the way, we can find b, the y-intercept of the way.

Substitute x = 6, y = 1 and m = -⁴/3 into y = mx + b, to find b.

Thus:

1 = (-⁴/3)(6) + b

1 = -8 + b

Add 8 to both sides

1 + 8 = b

9 = b

b = 9
