If f(x)= x2 - 4x - 4, find the input values that make the function 0.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x² - 4x - 4

the general formula for solving such a quadratic equation (for f(x) = 0) is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 1

b = -4

c = -4

x = (4 ± sqrt(4² - 4×1×-4))/(2×1) = (4 ± sqrt(16 + 16))/2 =

= (4 ± sqrt(2×16))/2 = (4 ± 4×sqrt(2))/2 = 2 ± 2×sqrt(2)

x1 = 2 + 2×sqrt(2)

x2 = 2 - 2×sqrt(2)

55.7 degrees is the same as 55 degrees _____' 12"

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a degree in decimals as 55.27 degrees

But normally in degrees, we use for part of degrees minutes and seconds

60 seconds make one minute and 60 minutes make one degree.

Here 55 degrees would be the same

But part degree 0.27 = 27/100

If we want to convert this into minutes multiply by 60

Multiple Choice= 2 points each

Short Response= 4 points each

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up a system of equations to find out how many points each type of question is worth.

x= multiple choice

y= short response

Equation 1 (You)

23x+10y=86

Equation 2 (Your Friend)

28x+5y=76

Solve with elimination. Multiply the second equation by negative 2 to cancel out the y-variable.

-2(28x+5y=76)

-56x-10y=-152

Subtract both equations together.

23x+10y=86

-56x-10y=-152

-33x= -66

x=2

Now that we found x, plug it into the first equation to solve for y.

23x+10y=86

23(2)+10y=86

46+10y=86

10y=40

y=4

Each multiple choice is worth 2 points, and each short answer response is worth 4 points.

Step by step explanation:

4. 6x + 2y = 22  

 (3x + 3y = 18) * 2

- Negate

6x + 2y = 22

6x + 6y = 36

Answers

Answer:

  y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation means y will change by the same factor x does. When x changes by a factor of 15/10 = 1.5, the value of y will change by that same factor

  x = 10, y = 12

  x= 15, y = 1.5×12 = 18

The new value of y is y = 18.

_____

Written as a proportion, you have ...

  y/15 = 12/10

  y = 15×12/10 = 18

__

Written as a direct variation equation, you have ...

  y = kx

  12 = k·10   ⇒   k = 1.2

  y = 1.2·15 = 18 . . . . for x=15

Answer:

3. 314 student and 226 adult

4. x = 6.5, y = -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

3. First we will take our information and make a system of equations:

[tex]2.4a+1.25s=934.9[/tex]

[tex]a+s=540[/tex]

[tex]a[/tex] is the number of adult tickets sold and [tex]s[/tex] is the number of student tickets sold.

From the second equation we can rearange it to be:

[tex]a=540-s[/tex]

Then we can plug in our new value of [tex]a[/tex] to our first equation

[tex]2.4(540-s)+1.25s=934.9[/tex]

[tex]1296-2.4s+1.25s=934.9[/tex]

[tex]1.15s=361.1[/tex]

[tex]s=314[/tex]

We can then find [tex]a[/tex] by plugging in s to our second equation

[tex]a+314=540[/tex]

[tex]a=226[/tex]

4. It is mostly solved already. We can take the value of y from the first equation and plug it into the second to get:

[tex]3x -5(-5x+32)=22[/tex]

[tex]3x+25x-160=22[/tex]

[tex]28x=182[/tex]

[tex]x=6.5[/tex]

Then plug our value of x into the first equation to get:

[tex]3(6.5)-5y=22[/tex]

[tex]19.5-5y=22[/tex]

[tex]5y=-2.5[/tex]

[tex]y=-0.5[/tex]

plS

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

3×|x + 4| + 2 >= 5

you handle this basically like an equation :

3×|x + 4| >= 3

|x + 4| >= 1

because of the absolute value we have 2 solutions for that :

x + 4 = 1

and

x + 4 = -1

as in both cases the absolute value turns the result into 1.

so,

x + 4 = 1

x = -3

x + 4 = -1

x = -5

so, to satisfy the inequality

x >= -3 or x <= -5

please consider : if the inequality would have been > instead of >=, we would have had to use > and < for the solution.

Find the first, fourth, and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule.
A(n) = 5 + (n - 1) 1/6

Answers

Answer:

A(1) = 5

A(4) = 5.5

A(10) = 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

An nth term formula works, whether for a arithmetic or geometric sequence, can be used to find any term in a sequence;

Simply substitute the number that corresponds with the position of the term you want to find and the formula will give the value of that term;

So:

A(1) = 5 + ⅙((1) - 1) = 5

A(4) = 5 + ⅙((4) - 1) = 5.5

A(10) = 5 + ⅙((10) - 1) = 6.5
