1) The roots of the equation are x = -7/3 and 5/2

And the correct options are option (A) and option (B)

2) Amber needs to draw the straight line y = 4x. And the point of intersection of both the graphs (y = 3x² and y = 4x)would give the solutions to given equation i.e., x = 1.33 and x = 0

Consider the first question,

We need to find the roots of given equation (3x + 7)(2x - 5) = 0

From above equation we can say that either 3x + 7 = 0 or 2x - 5 = 0

If 3x + 7 = 0

3x = -7

x = -7/3

And is 2x - 5 =0

2x = 5

x = 5/2

So, the roots of the equation are x = -7/3 and 5/2

Hence, the correct options are option (A) -7/3 and option (B) 5/2

Consider 2nd question,

Amber is trying to solve 3x² - 4x = 0 using graphical method.

She drew the graph of y = 3x² which is parabolic in nature.

we need to draw the straight line to solve the given equation.

If we draw the line y = 4x and then subtract it from y = 3x², then we get the original equation 3x² - 4x = 0

So, we need to draw the straight line y = 4x

Therefore, Amber needs to draw the line y = 4x the point of intersection of both the graphs would be the solutions to given equation.

i.e., x = 1.33 and x = 0

Chee will have $100 after 6 weeks by saving $ 5 per week , it is solved by forming the equation:

70 + 5w

Steps for converting word problems to equations

Here in the question,

So we already know chee has $70. This is a constant for us.

We also know she saves $5 per week with. In other words, her total cash after w weeks is:

70 + 5w

This is how we express ourselves. The 70 represents $70 the money she already has, and the 5w represents how much she will have saved after w weeks.

Substitute 6 for w to find chee's total financial situation after 6 weeks.

= 70 + 5(6)

∴Multiply:

= 70 + 30

then add:

$100

Answer:   A)   (f + g) (x)

Step-by-step explanation:  Use substitution  (f + g) (x) = f (x) + g (x)  

Transform the expression   (f + g) (x) =  x+3/x+2 + x+1/x-1  

Simplify   (x-1) *(x+3) + (x + 2) * (x + 1)/(x +2) *(x -1)

Remove the opposites and calculate   x^2 +3x - x - 3 + x^2 + x + 2x + 2 /

Solution     (f + g) (x) = 2x^2 + 5x -1 / x^2 + x - 2

Answer:

x=[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

5x(2-4)=2(5x-4)

1. First we expand the brackets

     10x-20x=10x-8

2. we can simplify the equation to

       -10x=10x-8

3. we want to find the value of x so we get all of the x on one side so we would -10x on both side

  -20x=-8

4. to find the value of x we divide each side by -20 this gives us

x=[tex]\frac{8}{20}[/tex]

(it's not a negative as the negative cancel each other out as negative divided by negative gives us positive)

5. However we can simplify the fraction by dividing the top and bottom by     4 (this is because the highest common factor for both number is 4) this gives

 x=[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

6. Therefore -4 is not a solution for the equation

The quadratic function that best fit the given data is y = 2x² - 5/2x - 8.

In algebra, quadratic function is defined as a function in the second degree or power. It can be expressed as y = f(x) = ax² + b x + c, where a, b, and c are constants.

Using only three points from the given data, we can determine the quadratic equation that fits the data.

Let P1 = (-2 , 5)

P2 = (0 , -8)

P3 = (2 , -5)

Substitute the points in the expression f(x) = y = ax² + b x + c.

5 = a(-2)² + b(-2) + c     ⇒     5 = 4a - 2b + c     (equation 1)

-8 = a(0)² + b(0) + c     ⇒     -8 = c     (equation 2)

-5 = a(2)² + b(2) + c     ⇒     -5 = 4a + 2b + c     (equation 3)

Substitute equation 2 in equation 1 and 3.

5 = 4a - 2b + -8     ⇒     13 = 4a - 2b     (equation 4)

-5 = 4a + 2b + -8     ⇒     3 = 4a + 2b     (equation 5)

13 = 4a - 2b     (equation 4)

-(3 = 4a + 2b)    (equation 5)

10 =       -4b

b = -5/2

Substitute the value of b in equation 4.

13 = 4a - 2(-5/2)

4a = 13 - 5

a = 2

If a = 2, b = -5/2 and c = -8, then the quadratic equation should be y = 2x² - 5/2x - 8.

The ratio of pints in case of red to green is 4:1 and that of sidelengths is 2:1 and in case of blue to green the ratio of pint is 6:1 and that of sidelengths is 3:1.

The Total surface area of a cuboid (TSA) is equal to the sum of the areas of it’s 6 rectangular faces, which is given by:

Total Surface Area of a Cuboid (TSA) = 2 (lw + wh + lh) square units

The above formula gives the total surface area of a cuboid having all six faces.

Since all the pedestial are in the form of cuboid and we have to paint its all  6 faces and we need 0.5 pint to paint the red pedestal

So, given the side lengths of green pedestal are half that of red one.

So,

TSA of red pedestal= 2 (lw + wh + lh)

So,

TSA of green pedestal

[tex]2 (\frac{l}{2} \frac{w}{2} +\frac{w}{2}\frac{h}{2}+\frac{l}{2}\frac{h}{2})\\2 (\frac{lw}{4} +\frac{wh}{4}+\frac{lh}{4})\\\frac{2(lw + wh + lh)}{4}[/tex]

TSA of green pedestal = TSA of red pedestal/4

So, pint needed for green = 0.25 * pint for red = 0.125 pint

Similarly, for Blue pedestal it is given that the sidelengths are thrice that of green pedestal .

TSA of blue pedestal = 1.5(TSA of red pedestal)

So, pint needed for blue pedestal = 1.5 * pint for red = 0.75

Ratio of pints need red to green = 0.5:0.125 = 4 :1

Ratio of sidelength of red to green =  2 :1

Ratio of pints need blue to green = 0.75:0.125 = 6:1

Ratio of sidelength of blue to green =  3 :1

The ratio of pint amount is twice the ratio of sidelengths.

Therefore, ratio of pints in case of red to green is 4:1 and that of sidelengths is 2:1 and in case of blue to green the ratio of pint is 6:1 and that of sidelengths is 3:1.

y - 6 = 4/3(x - 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line: y= -3/4 + 1

So if a line is perpendicular to another line, then its slope will be the negative reciprocal of the other line slope (reciprocal of a fraction is the inverse of it's fraction example: reciprocal of 10/6 is 6/10). So for this problem the given line's slope is -3/4. But since the equation that has (6, 6) is perpendicular, the slope will be 4/3.

Now that we know the slope we can put the number's in the point slope form. Point slope formula: y - y1 of point = m(x - x1) (y1 = y of point, x1= x of point and m= slope)

So the equation will be y - 6 = 4/3(x - 6)

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 174%/100 = 1.74

Y = 260(1 + 1.74)

Y = 260(2.74)

Y = 712.4

Exponents are the powers that are added to numerals. Exponents are a different approach to express multiplication, which involves multiplying the same integer again. You can find out how many times your number has been multiplied by itself using the exponent. This shows how it's connected to other maths areas.

The number of times a quantity is multiplied by itself can be used to define an exponent. For instance, the result of multiplying 2 by itself three times is 2 2 2 = 2³

Exponents, which are superscript numbers, tell you how many times to multiply a number by itself. Understanding scientific scales like the pH scale or the Richter scale, utilizing scientific notation to represent very large or very small numbers, and taking measurements are some examples of real-world applications.
