A quadratic equation is shown below:

16x2 − 8x + 1 = 0

Part A: Describe the solution(s) to the equation by just determining the radicand. Show your work. (5 points)

Part B: Solve 4x2 − 8x − 45 = 0 by using an appropriate method. Show the steps of your work, and explain why you chose the method used. (5 points)

Answers

Answer 1
First problem
We want to solve 16x² - 8x + 1 = 0

Notice that the quadratic expression is a perfect square because
(4x - 1)² = (4x)² + 2(4x)(-1) + (-1)² = 16x² - 8x + 1
Therefore
(4x - 1)² = 0
4x - 1 = 0  => x = 1/4 (multiplicity of 2)

Answer: x = 1/4 (multiplicity of 2)

Second problem
We want to solve 4x² - 8x - 45 = 0

The discriminant is
D = √[(-8)² - 4(4)(-45)]
    = √784
    = 28
Because D>0, there will be two real roots.

Use the quadratic formula.
x = (1/8)[8 +/- 28]
   = (1/8)(36) = 4.5
or
x = (1/8)(-20) 
   = -2.5

Answer:  x = 4.5 or x = -2.5

An expression is defined as a set of numbers, variables, and mathematical operations. The correct option is A, 2+3.

What is an Expression?

In mathematics, an expression is defined as a set of numbers, variables, and mathematical operations formed according to rules dependent on the context.

Given that the temperature at 9 a.m. is 2 degrees. Further, the temperature rises 3 more degrees by noon.

As two whole numbers are added together, the total quantity or sum of those values is obtained. Therefore, the expression that describes the temperature at noon is 2 + 3.

This is because the temperature is positive and after the temperature rises, the temperature will be added.

Hence, the expression that describes the temperature at noon is 2 + 3.

Determine the range of: f(x) = 13 - 20x - x^2 -3x^4. Also, find the max. And min. Values and state where those values occur

Answers

To know the range of the equation, you must first see the graph by plotting arbitrary points. Set values of x in any interval and substitute it to the equation. You would get a corresponding value of f(x) or y. When you plot the points, the graph would look like that in the picture.

The range of the graph refers to the coverage of y-values of the curve. From the picture, we could see that it covers most of the negative y-axis. To know at which value, let's find the maxima. There is no minima for this graph as you can see because it extends downwards infinitely at both sides.

To find the maxima, differentitate f(x) with respect to x and equate to 0
f'(x) = 0 = -20-2x-12x^3=0
You can find the roots easily by using a scientific calculator using the mode EQN. For this equation, there are 2 complex root and 1 real root. Thus, x = -1.14. Substitute this to the original equation:

y = 13 - 20(-1.14) - (-1.14)^2 -3(-1.14)^4
y = 29.433

Thus, the maxima is at point (-1.14,29.433). It can't be seen clearly in the graph because of the close intervals.

if a polynomial has one root in the form a+√b , it has a second root in the form of a_√b

Answers

When roots of polynomials occur in radical form, they occur as two conjugates.
That is,
The conjugate of (a + √b) is (a - √b) and vice versa.
To show that the given conjugates come from a polynomial, we should create the polynomial from the given factors.

The first factor is x - (a + √b).
The second factor is x - (a - √b).

The polynomial is
f(x) = [x - (a + √b)]*[x - (a - √b)]
      = x² - x(a - √b) - x(a + √b) + (a + √b)(a - √b)
      = x² - 2ax + x√b - x√b + a² - b
      = x² - 2ax + a² - b

This is a quadratic polynomial, as expected.

If you solve the quadratic equation x² - 2ax + a² - b = 0 with the quadratic formula, it should yield the pair of conjugate radical roots.
x = (1/2) [ 2a +/- √(4a² - 4(a² - b)]
   = a +/- (1/2)*√(4b)
   = a +/- √b
x = a + √b, or x = a - √b, as expected.

Answer:

a - √b

Step-by-step explanation:

If you solve the quadratic equation x² - 2ax + a² - b = 0 with the quadratic formula, it should yield the pair of conjugate radical roots.x = (1/2) [ 2a +/- √(4a² - 4(a² - b)]   = a +/- (1/2)*√(4b)   = a +/- √bx = a + √b, or x = a - √b, as expected.

Answer:

The value of the equation for z is [tex]z=\frac{83}{6-c-t}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

[tex]-cz+6z=tz+83[/tex]

Subtract tz from both the sides.

[tex]-cz+6z-tz=tz-tz+83[/tex]

[tex]-cz+6z-tz=83[/tex]

Take z common.

[tex]z(-c+6-t)=83[/tex]

[tex]z(6-c-t)=83[/tex]

Divide 6-c-t from both the sides.

[tex]\frac{z(6-c-t)}{6-c-t}=\frac{83}{6-c-t}[/tex]

[tex]z=\frac{83}{6-c-t}[/tex]

Thus, the value of the equation for z is [tex]z=\frac{83}{6-c-t}[/tex].

Of the 240 shirts on a rack, 40 percent are size medium. How many shirts on the rack are size medium?

Answers

First, let’s check for the given:

Shirts on the rack = 240

Medium size shirts = 40% of 240

 

With the following given, we can now solve for the total number of shirts on the rack that are size medium.

So, in order to solve for the problem, we multiply 40% to 240:

The decimal equivalent of 40% is 0.4.

240 shirts * .4 = 96 shirts

Therefore, out of 240 shirts on the rack, there are 96 shirts on the rack that are size medium.

 

To add, the number or ratio that represents a fraction of 100 is called a percentage.

If matrix A has dimensions 3 x 2 and matrix B has dimensions 3 x 2, can matrix A and matrix B be multiplied?

Answers

Matrix A has 3 rows, 2 columns
Matrix B has 3 rows, 2 columns

The number of columns in matrix A (which is 2) does not match up with the number of rows in matrix B (which is 3). 

So the matrix multiplication A*B is undefined. We cannot multiply the matrices.

Answer:

we can not multiply matrix A and B.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that

dimension of matrix A = 3 x 2

dimension of matrix B = 3 x 2

Rule of multiplying two matrices:

Two matrix can be multiplied if the column of first matrix is equal to the row of second matrix.

column of first matrix = row of second matrix

Here, we have

Column of first matrix A = 2

Row of second matrix b = 3

Since,, column of matrix A ≠ Row of matrix B

Hence, we can not multiply matrix A and B.

Daisy works at an ice-cream parlor. She is paid $10 per hour for the first 8 hours. She works for x hours in a day and x is greater than 8, the expression giving her net earnings for the day is

B. (x-8)1.5
C. 80+15 (x-8)
D. (8)(15)(x-8)

Answers

Some information is missing. The logical assumption is that you forgot to write that the rate for the hours worked over 8 hours is 50% more than the regular rate or, what is the same 1.5 times.

With that this is the solution step by step:

1) Number of  hours worked: x

2) Rate for the first 8 hours: $10 per hour

2) Pay for the first 8 hours = $10 * 8 = $80

3) Number of hours worked over 8 hours = x - 8

4) Rate for the hours worked over 8: 1.5 times $10 per hour = $15 per hour

5) Pay for the hours worked over 8 = $15 (x - 8) = 15 (x - 8)

6) Total pay = 80 + 15 (x - 8)

That is the option C.

Answer: option C. 80 + 15(x - 8)

A student needs to make a rectangular cardboard piece that is 12 inches long. The area of the cardboard piece should be between 60 square inches to 300 square inches. The function f(w) relates the area of the cardboard, in square inches, to the width w in inches. Which of the following shows a reasonable domain for f(w)?

A: 2 ≤ w ≤ 5

B: 5 ≤ w ≤ 25

C: 25 ≤ w ≤ 60

D: 60 ≤ w ≤ 300

Answers

area = L x w

60 = 12 x w

w=60/12 = 5

300 = 12 x w

w = 300/12 = 25

so B is the correct answer

Answer:

Option B

[tex]5 \leq w \leq 25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

L------> the long of the cardboard piece

W-----> the width of the cardboard piece

The area of cardboard piece is equal to

[tex]A=L*W[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex]L=12\ in[/tex]

so

[tex]A=12W[/tex]

[tex]f(W)=12W[/tex]------> equation A

[tex]f(W)\geq 60\ in^{2}[/tex] ------> inequality B

[tex]f(W)\leq 300\ in^{2}[/tex] ------> inequality C

Substitute equation A in the inequality B

[tex]12W\geq 60\ in^{2}[/tex]

[tex]W\geq 60/12[/tex]

[tex]W\geq 5\ in[/tex]

Substitute equation A in the inequality C

[tex]12W\leq 300\ in^{2}[/tex]

[tex]1W\leq 300/12[/tex]

[tex]1W\leq 25\ in[/tex]

Use the law of cosines to find the missing third side

Answers

a^2=b^2+c^2-2bccosA

a^2=7.4^2+15.8^2-2(7.4)(15.8)cos54°

a^2=304.4-233.84cos54°

a=√(304.4-233.84cos54°) units

a≈12.92 units (to the nearest hundredth of a unit)


The missing third side BC is approximately 16.93 units. To use the Law of Cosines to find the missing third side (BC), we'll use the formula:

[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab * cos(C)[/tex]

where:

c is the side opposite angle C (BC in this case)

a and b are the known sides (AC and AB, respectively)

C is the angle opposite side c (angle BAC in this case)

Given values:

Angle BAC (C) = 54 degrees

AC (a) = 7.4

AB (b) = 15.8

Now, we can plug the values into the formula and solve for BC (c):

[tex]BC^2 = 7.4^2 + 15.8^2 - 2 * 7.4 * 15.8 * cos(54)[/tex]

To find cos(54), we can use a calculator:

[tex]cos(54 degrees) \approx 0.5878[/tex]

Now, we can continue the calculation:

[tex]BC^2 = 54.76 + 249.64 - 2 * 7.4 * 15.8 * 0.5878\\BC^2 = 54.76 + 249.64 - 17.44\\BC^2 = 286.96[/tex]

Now, find the square root of both sides to get the value of BC:

[tex]BC = \sqrt{286.96} \\BC \approx 16.93[/tex]

So, the missing third side BC is approximately 16.93 units.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

∠BOA = (3x -28) degrees ∠COD = (66 -x) degrees ∠BOC = 90 degrees

As we know that ∠BOA + ∠COD + ∠BOC= 180 degrees because AD is a straight line, so we have:

(3x -28) + (66-x) +90 = 180

<=> 2x = 52

<=> x = 26 degrees.

=> ∠BOA = 3*26 - 28 = 50 degrees

As we can see that, ∠BOA = ∠DOE (The properties of two straight lines intersect)

<=> ∠DOE  = 50 degrees

Once again, the  AD is a straight line, so we have:

∠DOE + ∠AOE = 180

<=> ∠AOE = 180  - ∠DOE

<=>  ∠AOE = 180  - 50 = 130 degrees
