SOLVING QUADRATIC EQUATIONS
2) Solve 2x2 - 5 = 27

Answers

Answer:

x = ±4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out quadratic

2x² - 5 = 27

Step 2: Add 5 to both sides

2x² = 32

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2

x² = 16

Step 4: Take the square root of both sides

x = ±4

∴ x can equal -4 or 4

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bf \huge \: x =4}[/tex]

[tex] \rm \: Or,[/tex]

[tex] \boxed{\bf \huge \: x = - 4}[/tex]

Step by step explanation:

Given Equation is :-

[tex]\sf \implies \: 2 {x}^{2} - 5 = 27[/tex]

We need to find the value of [tex]x[/tex] using Quadric formula.

Firstly, Subtract 27 from both of the side(s):-

[tex]\sf \implies2 {x}^{2} - 5 - 27 = 27 - 27[/tex]

On Simplification:-

Add -5-27 as (-) and (-) equals to (+). -5-27 would be represented as 5+27, which results to 32.

[tex]\sf\sf \implies2 {x}^{2} - 32 = 0[/tex]

Then, for this equation , a=2, b=0, c=-32.

Put the values :-

That is,

[tex]\sf \implies2 {x}^{2} + 0x + ( - 32) = 0[/tex]

As we know, that the quadratic formula is:-

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

Put the values :-

[tex]\sf \implies \: x = \dfrac{ - 0 \pm \sqrt{0 {}^{2} \: - 4(2) ( - 32)} }{2(2)} [/tex]

On Simplification:-

[tex]\sf \implies \: x = \dfrac{ - 0 {}^{} \pm \sqrt{ {0 } - \: 8 \times - 32}}{2 \times 2} [/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies \: x = \dfrac{ - 0 \pm \: \sqrt{ - 8 \times - 32} }{4}[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies x = \dfrac{ - {0}^{}\pm \: \sqrt{ + 256} }{4} [/tex]

As 0 has no value here,

[tex]\sf \implies \: x = \dfrac{ \pm \sqrt{256} }{4} [/tex]

On cancelling,

Remove the square of 256 ( √256)

[tex]\sf \implies \: x = \dfrac{ \pm \cancel{ \: 256}}{ \cancel4} [/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies \: x = ± + 4[/tex]

It may be represented as,

[tex]\sf \implies \: x = - 4[/tex]

Or,

[tex]\sf \implies \: x = 4[/tex]

What are inequalities ?

When two values are compared , an inequality represents whether one is greater than, less than, or not equal to the other.

The given statement is "negative thirty-one less than s is greater than 93". This statement must be transformed into form of an inequality.

We know that an inequality comes when a number is greater than or less than another number . Here the variable is the unknown number 's'. This meant the expression can be written as :

s - (-31) > 93

on a function map, the values for the domain of the function appear on the ______ and the values for the range appear on the _______​

Answers

Answer:

domain is x

range is y

Step-by-step explanation:

The values for the domain of the function appear on the x-axis and the values for the range appear on the y-axis.

What is the range and domain of a function?

A function's range is the set of all values that the function accepts, and its domain is the set of all values for which the function is defined.

The domain is for the independent variable while the range is for the dependent variable.

For example f(x) = x²

Now if we put x = 1 then it is called as domain variable while the value of function at x = 1 its that f(1) = 1 called range variable.

The range is the interval where the function f(x) is defined whereas the domain is the input interval of the independent variable (x).

For example f(x) = x²

Now if we put x = 1 then it is called as domain variable while the value of function at x = 1 its that f(1) = 1 called range variable.

Hence "The values for the domain of the function appear on the x-axis and the values for the range appear on the y-axis".

Answers

Answer:

a = [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of a, find the Slope of both the equations.

For lines to be perpendicular to each other    [tex]m_{1}m_{2} = - 1[/tex]

For line 1:

2x + 3y − 6 = 0 represent the line in y=mx +c form

3y = -2x + 6

y = [tex]\frac{-2}{3} x[/tex] + [tex]\frac{6}{3}[/tex]

y = [tex]\frac{-2}{3} x[/tex] + 2

[tex]m_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-2}{3}[/tex]

For line 2:

ax - 3y = 5

ax = 5 + 3y

ax - 5 = 3y

y = [tex]\frac{ax}{3} - \frac{5}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m_{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{a}{3}[/tex]

Apply the condition of perpendicularity:

[tex]\frac{-2}{3}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{a}{3}[/tex] = - 1

[tex]\frac{2a}{9} = 1[/tex]

Consider randomly selecting a student at a large university, and let A be the event that the selected student has a Visa card and B be the analogous event for MasterCard. Suppose that P(A) = 0.6 and P(B) = 0.4.
a. Could it be the case that P(A ∩ B) = 0.5? Why or why not?
b. From now on, suppose that P(A ∩ B) = 0.3. What is the probability that the selected student has at least one of these two types of cards?
c. What is the probability that the selected student has neither type of card?
d. Describe, in terms of A and B, the event that the selected student has a Visa card but not a MasterCard, and then calculate the probability of this event.
e. Calculate the probability that the selected student has exactly one of these two types of cards

Answers

Answer:

A)P(A ∩ B) cannot be equal to 0.5.

B)P(A ⋃ B) = 0.7

C)P[(A ∪ B)'] = 0.3

D)P(A ∩ B') = 0.3

E)probability that the selected student has exactly one of these two types of cards = 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We want to find out if P(A ∩ B) = 0.5

Now, this value is not possible because the probability of intersection of two events can not be greater than the probability of each individual event.

We are told that P(A) = 0.6 and P(B) = 0.4.

Due to the fact that the probability of B is less than 0.4 which is less than 0.5, It means that the intersection of A and B can't be greater than 0.4.

Thus, P(A ∩ B) cannot be equal to 0.5.

B) Now, P(A ∩ B) = 0.3

The probability that the selected student has at least one of these two types of cards would be P(A ⋃ B)

Now, this is expressed as;

P(A ⋃ B) = P(A) + P(B) − P(A ∩ B)

Thus,

P(A ⋃ B) = 0.6 + 0.4 - 0.3

P(A ⋃ B) = 0.7

C) Probability that the selected student has neither type of card would be expressed as; P[(A ∪ B) ' ]

Thus is further expressed as;

P[(A ∪ B) ' ] = 1 − P(A ∪ B)

P[(A ∪ B)'] = 1 - 0.7

P[(A ∪ B)'] = 0.3

D) We want to describe in terms of A and B, the event that the selected student has a Visa card but not a MasterCard.

This is simply an intersection of event A and compliment of event B. Thus, it implies that we we will remove the events when student has both types of cards from the events of A. This probability is expressed as P(A ∩ B')

Thus gives;

P(A ∩ B') = P(A) - P(A ∩ B)

P(A ∩ B') = 0.6 - 0.3

P(A ∩ B') = 0.3

E) Now, we want to find the probability that the selected student has exactly one of these two types of cards.

This is simply the addition of intersection of event A with compliment of event B and intersection of event B with compliment of event A . The probability is given by:

P(A ∩ B') + P(A' ∩ B)

Expanding this gives;

P(A ∩ B') + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

0.3 + 0.4 - 0.3 = 0.4

Answers

You need to make the denominators in the equation the same to add or subtract fractions. Pick a denominator both can multiply up to. ( this is called the least common denominator. Look it up if your unsure) so if the denominators were 2 and 3, multiply them so they both are 6. You have to multiple the numerator then too ( what you do to the bottom of the fraction, you must also do to the top) so if your fraction was 1/3 and you multiplied 3 by 2 to get 6, you would also have to multiple the 1 by 2 so then your fraction is 2/6. Once you have done that you can subtract the numerators like normal, just keep the denominators the same. So 2/6 - 1/6 = 1/6. When you have equations with mixed numbers, turn those into improper fractions first. Ex. 1 1/4 you would multiply the one on the outside of the fraction by the denominator and then add the numerator. 1 1/4 = 5/4. Then add or subtract like normal. Remember to keep your denominator the same ALWAYS when subtracting and adding fractions. Hope this helps!

Answer:

1. -9/20

2.  1  7/12

3.  -4  1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators, you must first make them like denominators. To do this we must:

1. Find the Least Common Multiple of the denominators (which is called the Least Common Denominator).

2. Change each fraction (using equivalent fractions) to make their denominators the same as the least common denominator.

3. Then add (or subtract) the fractions, as we wish!

The easiest way to this is by multiplying the denominators. Remember that whatever you do to the bottom, you also do to the top

1. -5/4 +4/5

if we multiply 4 and 5, we get 20. Our denominator will be 20 before we simplify.

our new equation is going to be -25/20 + 16/20. Now we can add these together to get an answer of -9/20. Which is in the simplist form.

One more thing: to make a mixed number an improper fraction, you multiply the whole number by the denominator, and add the numerator.

1X4=4

4+1=5

The improper fraction is 5/4.

To make a Whole number a fraction, multiply the number by the denominator

-5x3=15

The improper is -15/3.

To go from an improper to a mixed, divide the numerator by the denominator. The remainders are going to be the fraction attached.
