When 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number, then the negative solution is -1
Solution:Given that when 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number
To find: negative solution
Let "a" be the unknown number
Let us analyse the given sentence
square of a number = [tex]a^2[/tex]
6 is subtracted from the square of a number = [tex]a^2 - 6[/tex]
5 times the number = [tex]5 \times a[/tex]
So we can frame a equation as:
6 is subtracted from the square of a number = 5 times the number
[tex]a^2 - 6 = 5 \times a\\\\a^2 -6 -5a = 0\\\\a^2 -5a -6 = 0[/tex]
Let us solve the above quadratic equation
For a quadratic equation [tex]ax^2 + bx + c = 0[/tex] where [tex]a \neq 0[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}[/tex]
Here in this problem,
[tex]a^2-5 a-6=0 \text { we have } a=1 \text { and } b=-5 \text { and } c=-6[/tex]
Substituting the values in above quadratic formula, we get
[tex]\begin{array}{l}{a=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^{2}-4(1)(-6)}}{2 \times 1}} \\\\ {a=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25+16}}{2}=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{49}}{2}} \\\\ {a=\frac{5 \pm 7}{2}}\end{array}[/tex]
We have two solutions for "a"
[tex]\begin{array}{l}{a=\frac{5+7}{2} \text { and } a=\frac{5-7}{2}} \\\\ {a=\frac{12}{2} \text { and } a=\frac{-2}{2}}\end{array}[/tex]
a = 6 or a = -1We have asked negative solution. So a = -1
Thus the negative solution is -1

domain of the function f(x)=3x3 is 2,5 what is the function range?
Domain of the function f(x)=3x^3 is 2,5 what is the function range?
Answer:
The range of given function is {24, 375}
Solution:
Domain of the function is possible input of the function that is "x" and range of the function is possible output of the function that is f(x)
So we can substitute the given domain values of "x" in f(x) and find the range of function
As per the given question:
The domain of the function [tex]f(x) = 3x^3[/tex] is, [2, 5]
We have to find the range of the function
At x = 2:Substitute x = 2 in f(x)
[tex]f(x) = 3x^3[/tex]
[tex]f(2) = 3 (2)^3 = 3(8) = 24[/tex]
At x = 5:Substitute x = 5 in f(x)
[tex]f(5) = 3(5)^3 = 3 \times 125 = 375[/tex]
Therefore range of given function is {24, 375}

the student council orders 12 sandwhiches for the school dance. each sandwich is 6 feet long cut into sections that are 4 inches long. how many small sandwiches will they have?
1ft = 12inch
The school council will have 216 small sandwiches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sandwiches ordered = 12
Length of one sandwich = 6 feet
1 foot = 12 inch
6 feet = 12*6 = 72 inches
Length of one sandwich in inches = 72 inches
As one small sandwich is 4 inches,
Number of small sandwiches in one sandwich = [tex]\frac{72}{4}=18[/tex]
One sandwich = 18 small sandwiches
12 sandwiches = 18*12 = 216 small sandwiches
The school council will have 216 small sandwiches.

pls help asap!
Answer:
Below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
sin ^2x + cos ^2 x = 1, so
cos^2x = 1 - (5/11)^2 = 96/121
cos x = √96/11
= 4√6/11.
sin 2x = 2 sinx cosx = 2 * 5/11 * 4√6/11.

Out of 1,000 tickets in a raffle, one ticket will win a $710 prize. The rest will win nothing. If you have a ticket, what is the expected payoff?
Answer:
The probability of winning = 0.001 and hence the expected payoff = $0.
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a lottery contest and there are 1000 entries.
Only one will win and will get a prize of $710. All others would be given nothing.
We have to find the probability of the person winning.
Probability = [tex]\frac{number of favorable events}{total number of events}[/tex]
Number of favorable events = 1
Total number = 1000
So probability of winning the payoff = [tex]\frac{1}{1000}[/tex] = 0.001
Hence the expected payoff = $0

before last nights game a basketball player has scored an average ( arithmetic mean) of 20 points per game . she scored 25 points in last nights game raising her average go 21 points per game. how many games did she play before last night's game
Answer:
She played 4 games before last night's game
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Average of last night basketball games = 20
Points scored in last night game = 25
Rise in average after last night game = 21
To Find:
The number of games played last night = ?
Solution:
Let the number of games played before last night's game be x
Then
The average of x games =20
That is
[tex]\frac{\text{ Total points scored in x games}}{x}= 20[/tex]
Total points scored in x games = 20x
In last night game she scored 25 points
So now the total score will be = 20x+25 and
the number of games will be x+1
Now the
The average of x+1 games = 21
[tex]\frac{20x+25}{x+1}[/tex] =21

Mai biked 7 and 1/4 miles today, and Noah biked 3 5/8 miles. How many times the length of Noah's bike ride was Mai's bike ride?
Answer:
The distance cover by Mai's bike is 2 time the distance cover by Noah's bike
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The distance cover by Mai's bike = [tex]d_1[/tex] = 7 [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex] miles
I.e [tex]d_1[/tex] = [tex]\dfrac{28+1}{4}[/tex] miles
Or, [tex]d_1[/tex] = [tex]\dfrac{29}{4}[/tex] miles
The distance cover by Noah's bike = [tex]d_2[/tex] = 3 [tex]\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex] miles
I.e [tex]d_2[/tex] = [tex]\dfrac{24 + 5}{8}[/tex] miles
Or, [tex]d_2[/tex] = [tex]\dfrac{29}{8}[/tex] miles
let the number of times that Noah's bike ride was Mai's bike ride = n
So, The distance cover by Mai's bike = n × The distance cover by Noah's bike
Or, [tex]d_[/tex] = n × [tex]d_[/tex]
Or, [tex]\dfrac{29}{4}[/tex] miles = n × [tex]\dfrac{29}{8}[/tex] miles
Or, n = [tex]\frac{\frac{29}{4}}{\frac{29}{8}}[/tex]
∴ n = [tex]\dfrac{8}{4}[/tex]
I.e n = 2
Hence The distance cover by Mai's bike is 2 time the distance cover by Noah's bike . Answer
What is the mean of: 3.7,5, 9.2,4,6.1,5,2.6, 4.5.2,5?
A. 4.88
B. 4.5
C. 4
D. 6.6
The mean of 3.7,5, 9.2,4,6.1,5,2.6, 4,5.2,5 is 4.88.
Explanation:Mean is referred in mathematics to as average of the mentioned numbers. Average can be virtually imagined as a center position giving every number equal weight. Average can be calculated by diving the sum of all the numbers by count of total numbers.
For example, 2, and 4 will have average of 3. Average of 2,3,4 will be also 3. This is because [tex]\frac{(2+4)}{2} = 3, and\ also\ \frac{(2+3+4)}{3} = 3[/tex].
So considering the above Question, count of all the above numbers is 10.
Sum = 3.7 + 5 + 9.2 + 4 + 6.1 + 5 + 2.6 + 4 + 5.2 + 5 = 488
Mean = Average = [tex]\frac{Sum}{Count}[/tex]
Mean = [tex]\frac{488}{10}[/tex] = 4.88

Emily participates in a trivia quiz show. In each round, 20 points are awarded for a correct answer and 10 points are deducted for an incorrect answer. Emily answered 7 questions correctly and 8 incorrectly in the first round. What was her first-round score? Emily answered 4 questions correctly and 11 incorrectly in the second round. What was her score in the second round? The final score is the average of the two rounds, what is Emily's final score?
Answer:
1. Emily scored 60 points in the first round
2. Emily scored minus 30 points in the second round
3. Emily's final score is 15 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review all the information given to us to answer the questions correctly:
Points awarded for a correct answer = 20
Points deducted for a incorrect answer = 10
2. Let's calculate the score of Emily in the first round:
Score = 7 * 20 - 8 * 10
Score = 140 - 80
Score = 60
Emily scored 60 points in the first round
3. Let's calculate the score of Emily in the second round:
Score = 4 * 20 - 11 * 10
Score = 80 - 110
Score = - 30
Emily scored minus 30 points in the second round
4. Let's calculate the final score of Emily:
Final score = (Score 1st round + Score 2nd round)/2
Final score = (60 + - 30)/2
Final score = (60 - 30)/2 = 30/2 = 15
Emily's final score is 15 points.
Please i want to calculate summation of 0.30+0.60+0.90............+3.0
what is the formulae to get it
Answer:
16.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an arithmetic series because the increase is a constant 0.30.
Sum of n terms = (n/2)[a + l) where n = no.of terms a = first term , l = last term.
There are 3/ 0.3 = 10 terms so
Sum = (10/2) (0.3 + 3.0)
= 5 * 3.3
= 16.5.
15 points. Would the rules for interference work the same for light waves as they do for sound waves? Explain why or why not.
Answer:
Yes, because when waves are at the same place at the same time, the amplitudes of the waves simply add together and this is really all we need to know!
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of two waves can be less than either wave, alone, and can even be zero. This is called destructive interference.
If we place the waves side-by-side, point them in the same direction and play the same frequency, we will have constructive interference.
Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (4,−9) and has a slope of 6. The equation is y− = (x− )
Answer:
y + 9 = 6(x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = 6 and (a, b) = (4, - 9), thus
y - (- 9) = 6(x - 4), that is
y + 9 = 6(x - 4)
Find the equation of the line through the point (6, 9) that has a slope of 4?
A) y = 6x + 4
B) y = 3x + 121
C) y = 4x + 15
D) y = 4x - 15
Answer:
D Y=4x-15
Step-by-step explanation:y=Mx+b
Three numbers form a geometric progression. If the second term is increased by 2, then the progression will become arithmetic and if, after this, the last term is increased by 9, then the progression will again become geometric. Find these three numbers.
The three numbers forming the geometric progression are [tex]4/7, 32/7,[/tex] and [tex]81/7.[/tex] The second term is increased by [tex]2[/tex], then the progression will become arithmetic and if, after this, the last term is increased by [tex]9[/tex], then the progression will again become geometric.
Let's denote the three numbers forming the geometric progression as [tex]a[/tex], [tex]ar[/tex], and [tex]ar^2}[/tex], where a is the first term and [tex]r[/tex] is the common ratio.
If the second term is increased by [tex]2[/tex], then the progression becomes arithmetic. This means:
[tex]ar+2=2ar-a[/tex]
[tex]2=ar-a \\2=a(r-1)[/tex]
If after this, the last term is increased by [tex]9[/tex], then the progression becomes geometric again. This means: [tex]ar^2} +9=(ar+2)r[/tex]
[tex]ar^2} +9=ar^2} +2r \\9=2r \\r=9/2[/tex]
Now, we have found the value of [tex]r[/tex], which is the common ratio. Let's substitute [tex]r=29[/tex] into the equation [tex]2=a(r-1)[/tex] to find the value of a:
[tex]2=a((9/2)-1) \\2=a(9-2/2) \\2=a(7/2) \\a=4/7[/tex]
So, the first term a is [tex]4/7.[/tex]
Now, let's find the second term by substituting [tex]a=4/7[/tex] into the equation [tex]ar+2=2ar-a:\\4/7.9/2+2=2.4/7.9/2-4/7 \\18/7+2=36/7-4/7 \\32/7=32/7[/tex]
This equation is satisfied, so the second term is [tex]32/7.[/tex]
Finally, let's find the third term by multiplying the first term by the common ratio:
[tex]4/7.(9/2)2=7.4/4.1/8=81/7[/tex]
So, the three numbers forming the geometric progression are [tex]4/7, 32/7,[/tex]and [tex]81/7.[/tex]
We used the properties of geometric and arithmetic progressions to set up and solve equations to find the three numbers. First, we found the common ratio r by solving the equations derived from the given conditions. Then, we found the first term a and used it to find the second term. Finally, we found the third term by multiplying the first term by the common ratio squared.
COMPLETE QUESTION:
Three numbers form a geometric progression. If the second term is increased by [tex]2[/tex], then the progression will become arithmetic and if, after this, the last term is increased by [tex]9[/tex], then the progression will again become geometric. Find these three numbers.
The three numbers are 4, 18, and 81.
Let the three numbers forming the geometric progression be [tex]\( a, ar, \)[/tex] and [tex]\( ar^2 \)[/tex], where [tex]\( r \)[/tex] is the common ratio.
Given that increasing the second term by 2 makes it an arithmetic progression, we have:
[tex]\[ar + 2 = a + 2d\][/tex]
where d is the common difference in the arithmetic progression.
Similarly, after increasing the last term by 9, the progression becomes geometric again, so:
[tex]\[ar^2 + 9 = (ar + 2)r\][/tex]
From the first equation, [tex]\( d = (ar - a)/2 \)[/tex], and substituting this into the second equation, we get:
[tex]\[ar^2 + 9 = (ar + 2)r\][/tex]
[tex]\[ar^2 + 9 = ar^2 + 2r\][/tex]
[tex]\[9 = 2r\][/tex]
[tex]\[r = \frac{9}{2}\][/tex]
Substituting [tex]\( r = \frac{9}{2} \)[/tex] into the first equation, we find [tex]\( d = \frac{a}{2} \)[/tex].
Thus, [tex]\( a + 2 = a + \frac{a}{2} \)[/tex], and solving for [tex]\( a \)[/tex], we find [tex]\( a = 4 \)[/tex].
Then, using [tex]\( r = \frac{9}{2} \)[/tex], we find [tex]\( ar = 18 \) and \( ar^2 = 81 \)[/tex].
Therefore, the three numbers are 4, 18, and 81.
A construction crew has just finished building a road. The road is 10 kilometers long. If the crew worked for 4 2/3 days, how many kilometers of road did they build each day? (Assume they built the same amount each day.)
2.14 kilometers of road is built each day
Solution:
Given that road is 10 kilometers long
The crew worked for [tex]4\frac{2}{3}[/tex] days
To find: Kilometers of road build each day
Assume they built the same amount each day
Length of road = 10 km
number of days worked = [tex]4\frac{2}{3} = \frac{3 \times 4 + 2}{3} = \frac{14}{3}[/tex]
Kilometers of road build each day is given as:
Kilometers of road build each day = total length of road divided by number of days the crew worked
[tex]\rightarrow \frac{10}{\frac{14}{3}}=\frac{10}{1} \times \frac{3}{14}=2.14[/tex]
Thus 2.14 kilometers of road is built each day
What is -4x+y=-8 equal to
Answer:
y=4x+8
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you want this rewritten in slope intercept form. That means we need to isolate the y.
-4x+y=-8
Add 4x to both sides
y=-8+4x
Now let's rewrite it in slope intercept form. Recall slope intercept form is y=mx+b. That means our 'b' (8) must be on the end of the equation.
y=4x+8
why would 3/2 be a rational number?
Explanation: All fractions positive or negative are rational numbers so 3/2 must be rational. Another way to think about rational numbers is that if you can turn the number into a fraction, it's rational. Since 3/2 is already in fraction form, it's a rational number.

Urgent!!! Help
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
f(x) = x³ - x² - 6x
Step-by-step explanation:
If a polynomial f(x) has roots x = a and x = b then the factors are
(x - a) and (x - b) and the polynomial is the product of the factors, that is
f(x) = (x - a)(x - b)
Here the roots are x = 3, x = - 2 and x = 0, thus
(x - 3), (x - (- 2)) and (x - 0) are the factors, that is
(x - 3), (x + 2) and x , hence the polynomial is
f(x) = x(x - 3)(x + 2) ← expand the pair of factors
= x(x² - x - 6) ← distribute parenthesis by x

The measure of an exterior angle of a regular polygon is 2x, and the measure of an interior angle is 4x. Using the relationship between interior and exterior angles, find the value of x.
The value of x is 30
Solution:
Given that measure of exterior angle of regular polygon is 2x
The measure of interior angle is 4x
To find: value of x
The sum of an interior angle plus an exterior angle must be equal to 180 degrees (supplementary angles)
measure of exterior angle + measure of interior angle = 180
2x + 4x = 180
6x = 180
x = 30
Finding the measure of an exterior angle
measure of exterior angle = 2x = 2(30) = 60 degrees
Finding the measure of interior angle
measure of interior angle = 4x = 4(30) = 120 degrees
Last year, Goran biked 384 miles. This year he biked c miles, using c write an expression for the total number of miles he biked
Answer:
384 + c = m.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use another variable such as t to represent "total." I used m to represent total "miles." The variable you use to represent the total shouldn't matter but these two variables make the most sense. 384 for last year's miles plus c, which is this year's miles, equals the total miles. A very simple, straight forward and easy equation to write.
