Find The Discriminant And The Number Of Real Roots For This Equation.x^2 + 3x + 8 = 0A. 32; Two Real
Answer 2

The correct option regarding the discriminant and the number of real roots for this equation is given by:

D. -23; no real roots

What is the discriminant of a quadratic equation and how does it influence the solutions?

A quadratic equation is modeled by:

[tex]y = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]

The discriminant is:

[tex]\Delta = b^2 - 4ac[/tex]

The solutions are as follows:

If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta > 0}[/tex], and it is a perfect square, it has 2 real solutions.If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta = 0}[/tex], it has 1 real solution.If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta < 0}[/tex], it has 0 real solutions.

In this problem, the function is:

x² + 3x + 8.

Hence the coefficients are a = 1, b = 3, c = 8, and the discriminant is given by:

[tex]\Delta = b^2 - 4ac = 3^2 - 4(1)(8) = -23[/tex]

Negative discriminant, hence no real roots, and option D is correct.

A cell phone company wants to determine the average amount of data that their smart phone customers use each month. Which group would best represent a sample of the population?

one thousand of their customers with the most expensive monthly plans
one thousand of their customers who most recently signed up with the company
one thousand of their customers with a current smart phone data plan
one thousand of their customers who called in for technical support

Answers

The group that best represents a sample of the population is one thousand of their customers with a current smart phone data plan.

What is the appropriate sample of the population?

A sample is a smaller representative group of the population. A sample is used as it might not be feasible or cost effective to access the whole population.

The appropraite sample should be representative of the whole population of customers.

The group that would best represent a sample of the population is given by: Option C: one thousand of their customers with a current smart phone data plan.

Why do we do sampling?

We do sampling so that we don't have to work on entire population of items but only on that sample in a way that we can predict information about population.

Most of the times, it isn't possible in real world to work on entire populations. Samples come out for rescue by assumptions that they will have some properties of the population pertained in them.

Thus, the sample should be taken out such that it includes data of the population as much  as it can in unbiased way so as to imitate population. (assuming that we want the sample to contain the summary of the population).

We've to collect sample in such a way that we can get a widespread view of the population (all customers). We want to do sampling for getting the average amount of data that their smart phone customers use each month.

Option A, B and D are choosing those customers, which are like a special part of the customers, and not an overall coverage of the customer the cell phone company has.

But option C covers assumingly all sorts of customers who use internet data.

B. ( 8*2) -6
C. 8*(6-2)
D. 8* (2-6)

Answers

Answer:

B

We find twice Jessica’s age and then subtract 6 since she is 6 years younger than that.

Answer:

B. (8*2) -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Jessica is 8, and Kayla is 6 years younger than twice (doubled) Jessica's age, this means that Kayla is 6 years younger than 16. Therefore the equation would be (8*2)-6.

Step-by-step explanation:

8. Triangle's base is 10, height 4.

10 * 4 = 40

40/2 = 20

24 * 10 = 240

240 + 20

= 260

9. Radius 3.

πr²

12 * 6 = 72

72 - 9π

≈43.73

10. Semicircle has a radius of 2.

2²π

4π/2 = 2π

≈6.28

6.28 + 28 = 34.28

≈34.28

8. It has Triangle embedded to a Rectangle

Area of Figure =Area of Triangle + Area of Rectangle

Area of Triangle = ½ base x height

= ½ x 10 x 8 =40

Area of Rectangle= 24 x 10 =240

TOTAL AREA OF FIGURE = 240 + 40 = 280

9.

Its a rectangle with a Circle in the Middle

Area of Shaded Region would be

Area of Rectangle – Area of circle

Area of Rectangle = 12 x 6 =72

Area of Circle = πr² = π x 3² = 28.27

AREA OF SHADED REGION= 72 - 28.27

=43.73in².

10.

The shape contains a semicircle on a rectangle

Area of the shape = Total Surface Area of semicircle + Area of a Rectangle

Total Surface Area of a semi circle=2πr²

Diameter was given = 4cm

Radius = Diameter/2 = 4/2 = 2cm

If you look at the diagram, you notice there are two triangular bases and three rectangular faces.

Therefore, the surface area, or the total area of all the bases and faces, would be the area of one triangular base multiplied by 2 and the area of each rectangular face

area of triangle = (1/2)*height*base

area of triangular base = (1/2)*15*28 = 210 cm^2

area of rectangle = base*height

area of rectangular face #1 = 25*30 = 750 cm^2

area of rectangular face #2 = 17*30 = 510 cm^2

area of rectangular face #3 = 28*30 = 840 cm^2

total surface area = 2*210 + 750 + 510 + 840 = 2520 cm^2

Two runners start from the same point at the same time. They will be 4 miles apart at the end of two hours if running in the same direction, and they will be 16 miles apart at the end of one hour if running in opposite directions. Find their speeds.

Answers

Answer:

runner 1 runs with 9 miles / hour

runner 2 runs with 7 miles / hour

Step-by-step explanation:

x = speed of runner 1

y = speed of runner 2

2 hours × (x miles / hour) - 2 hours × (y miles / hour) = 4 miles

2x - 2y = 4

x - y = 2

x = y + 2

1 hour × (x miles / hour) + 1 hour × (y miles / hour) = 16

x + y = 16

y + 2 + y = 16

2y + 2 = 16

2y = 14

y = 7 miles / hour

x = y + 2 = 9 miles / hour

Today is your 10th birthday, and you decide to start saving for your college education. You will begin college on your 20th birthday and will need to pay ksh144,000 at beginning of first in a 4- year program. Fees will increase at inflation rate of 10% per year. You will make a deposit 1 year from today in an account paying 12% (percent) annually and continue to make an identical deposit each year up to and including the year you begin college. What should be the size of your deposit?

Answers

Answer:

The size of your deposit should be $13,023.92.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the real interest has to be calculated using the following formula:

r = [(1 + i) / (1 + inf)] - 1 ..................... (1)

Where;

i = market interest rate = Interest rate on the account = 12%, or 0.12

r = real interest rate = ?

inf = inflation rate = 10%, or 0.10

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for r, we have:

r = [(1 + 0.12) / (1 + 0.10)] - 1 = 0.0181818181818183

Since you will need to pay ksh144,000 at beginning of first in a 4- year program, this implies that the relevant to use in calculating the size of the deposit is the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Annuity Due as follows:

FV = P * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) * (1 + r) ................................. (2)

Where,

FV = Future value or the amount needed to pay on the 20th birthday = ksh144,000

P = Fixed annual payment or size of the deposit = ?

r = real interest rate = 0.0181818181818183

n = number of years = 20 - 10 = 10 (Since you will make a deposit 1 year from today annually and continue to make an identical deposit each year up to and including the year you begin college.)

Substituting the values into equation (2) and solve for P, we have:

144,000 = P * (((1 + 0.0181818181818183)^10 - 1) / 0.0181818181818183) * (1 + 0.0181818181818183)

144,000 = P * 10.8591414092614 * 1.0181818181818183

144,000 = P * 11.0565803439752

P = 144,000 / 11.0565803439752

P = $ 13,023.92

Therefore, the size of your deposit should be $13,023.92.
