factorise x square - 7 x minus 42​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x =(7-√217)/2=-3.865

x =(7+√217)/2=10.865 mark brainliest please

Step-by-step explanation:

   Factoring  x2-7x-42

The first term is,  x2  its coefficient is  1 .

The middle term is,  -7x  its coefficient is  -7 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -42

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -42 = -42

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -42  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -7 .

     -42    +    1    =    -41

     -21    +    2    =    -19

     -14    +    3    =    -11

     -7    +    6    =    -1

     -6    +    7    =    1

     -3    +    14    =    11

     -2    +    21    =    19

     -1    +    42    =    41

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 x2 - 7x - 42  = 0

Step  2  :

Parabola, Finding the Vertex :

2.1      Find the Vertex of   y = x2-7x-42

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex .   Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) .   We know this even before plotting  "y"  because the coefficient of the first term, 1 , is positive (greater than zero).

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two  x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the  x -coordinate of the vertex is given by  -B/(2A) . In our case the  x  coordinate is   3.5000  

Plugging into the parabola formula   3.5000  for  x  we can calculate the  y -coordinate :

 y = 1.0 * 3.50 * 3.50 - 7.0 * 3.50 - 42.0

or   y = -54.250

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for :  y = x2-7x-42

Axis of Symmetry (dashed)  {x}={ 3.50}

Vertex at  {x,y} = { 3.50,-54.25}

x -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at  {x,y} = {-3.87, 0.00}

Root 2 at  {x,y} = {10.87, 0.00}

Solve Quadratic Equation by Completing The Square

2.2     Solving   x2-7x-42 = 0 by Completing The Square .

Add  42  to both side of the equation :

  x2-7x = 42

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of  x , which is  7 , divide by two, giving  7/2 , and finally square it giving  49/4

Add  49/4  to both sides of the equation :

 On the right hand side we have :

  42  +  49/4    or,  (42/1)+(49/4)

 The common denominator of the two fractions is  4   Adding  (168/4)+(49/4)  gives  217/4

 So adding to both sides we finally get :

  x2-7x+(49/4) = 217/4

Adding  49/4  has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

  x2-7x+(49/4)  =

  (x-(7/2)) • (x-(7/2))  =

 (x-(7/2))2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

  x2-7x+(49/4) = 217/4 and

  x2-7x+(49/4) = (x-(7/2))2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

  (x-(7/2))2 = 217/4

We'll refer to this Equation as  Eq. #2.2.1  

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

  (x-(7/2))2   is

  (x-(7/2))2/2 =

 (x-(7/2))1 =

  x-(7/2)

Now, applying the Square Root Principle to  Eq. #2.2.1  we get:

  x-(7/2) = √ 217/4

Add  7/2  to both sides to obtain:

  x = 7/2 + √ 217/4

Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative

  x2 - 7x - 42 = 0

  has two solutions:

 x = 7/2 + √ 217/4

  or

 x = 7/2 - √ 217/4

Note that  √ 217/4 can be written as

 √ 217  / √ 4   which is √ 217  / 2

Solve Quadratic Equation using the Quadratic Formula

2.3     Solving    x2-7x-42 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula,  x  , the solution for   Ax2+Bx+C  = 0  , where  A, B  and  C  are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

                                   

           - B  ±  √ B2-4AC

 x =   ————————

                     2A

 In our case,  A   =     1

                     B   =    -7

                     C   =  -42

Accordingly,  B2  -  4AC   =

                    49 - (-168) =

                    217

Applying the quadratic formula :

              7 ± √ 217

  x  =    —————

                   2

 √ 217   , rounded to 4 decimal digits, is  14.7309

So now we are looking at:

          x  =  ( 7 ±  14.731 ) / 2

Two real solutions:

x =(7+√217)/2=10.865

or:

x =(7-√217)/2=-3.865

Answer 2

Answer:

x^2 - 7x - 42

x^2 - x (21 - 14 ) - 42

x^2 - 21x + 14x -42

7x ( x - 3) + 14 ( x- 3)

(x -3) (7x + 14)

Mattie is making a collar for her dog. She needs to buy some chain, clasp, and a name tag. She wants the chain to be 40 cm long. On meter of chain costs $9.75. The clasp is $1.29 and the name tag is $3.43. How much will it cost to make the collar? Estimate to check if your answer is reasonable.

Answers

Answer: $8.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Mattie wants to make a collar for her dog. She needs to buy some chain, clasp, and a name tag. Mattie wants the chain to be 40 cm long. On meter of chain costs $9.75, the clasp is $1.29 and name tag is $3.43.

Since 100 centimeters = 1 metre. Mattie needs 40cm and 1 meter of chain costs $9.75, cost of the chain Mattie needs will be:

= 40/100 × 9.75

= 2/5 × 9.75

= $3.90

Chain(40cm) = $3.90

Clasp = $1.29

Name tag = $3.43.

Cost to make collar will be:

= $3.90 + $1.29 + $3.43

= $8.62

If you square a googol, how many zeros will the answer have? Show your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

200 zeros

Step-by-step explanation:

1 googol is the number 1 followed by a hundred zeros, right? Right. Using 'Laws of Indices', for instance, 10^2=100, ie 10×10=100. The number of zeros will always be the sum of the number of zeros of the multiplier and multiplicand. More example, 100×100=10000. So, I think it's reasonable to say that 1 googol×1 googol= the number one followed by two hundred zeros ‍♀️

10m + 40 = 9m + 27

10m - 9m = 27 - 40

m = -13

Answer:

m = - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 (m + 4) = 1/5 (3m+9)

2/3m + 8/3 = 3/5m + 9/5

2/3m - 3/5m = 9/5 - 8/3

10/15m - 9/15m = 27/15 - 40/15

1/15m = - 13/15

m = - 13/15 / 1/15

m = - 13/15 * 15

m = - 195/15

m = - 13

Answers

Answer:

Area of Shaded Region: 189 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

~ To find the area of the shaded region, let us calculate the area of the rectangle added to the area of the two triangles, or the area of the whole triangle created from the two smaller triangles ~

1. Given dimensions of 15 by 9 centimeters, the area of the rectangle would be ⇒ 15 cm * 9 cm = 135 cm^2

2. It would be simpler if we were to consider the area of the larger triangle. The height in this case, by the Partition Postulate, would be 27 cm - 15 cm ⇒ 12 centimeters. Now provided that the shape with dimensions 15 cm by 9 cm is a rectangle, opposite sides are ≅, and thus ⇒ the base of this large triangle is 9 cm. That being said we can calculate the area of the triangle by   ⇒ 1/2 * base * altitude ⇒ 1/2 * 9 cm * 12 cm ⇒ 6 cm * 9 cm ⇒ 54 cm^2

3. The area of the shaded region is thus 135 cm^2 + 54 cm^2 ⇒ 189 cm^2

Area of Shaded Region: 189 square centimeters

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first place you have 15 possibilities, since every member of the club is available. For Madison you will have only 14, since you cant pick the same member than the one you picked for Sheyoygan. For the same argument, you will have 13 possibilities available for La Crosse, and only 12 for Green Bay.

We have to pick a combination using the possibilities that we have, thus, you have to multiply all 4 possibilities toguether to find the amount of ways to choose members to attend the conferences. This means that you will have a total of 15*14*13*12 = 32760 possibilities in total.
