Find the zeros of the function f(x) = -5x2 + 4x - 1 by completing the square.
(leave in fraction form if necessary)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The roots are;

x = (2 + i)/5 or (2-i)/5

where the term i is the complex number representing the square root of -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to use the completing the square method to solve the quadratic equation;

f(x) = -5x^2 + 4x -1

Set the function to zero

0 = -5x^2 + 4x - 1

So;

-5x^2 + 4x = 1

divide through by the coefficient of x which is -5

x^2 - 4/5x = -1/5

We now take half of the coefficient of x and square it

= -2/5^2 = 4/25

add it to both sides

x^2 - 4x/5 + 4/25= -1/5 + 4/25

(x- 2/5)^2 = -1/5 + 4/25

(x - 2/5)^2 = -1/25

Take the square root of both sides

x - 2/5 = √( -1/25

x - 2/5 = +i/5 or -i/5

x = 2/5 + i/5 or 2/5 - i/5

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed { x = \frac{3}{5}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]7x + 6 = 17x[/tex]

-Take [tex]17x[/tex] and subtract it from [tex]7x[/tex]:

[tex]7x + 6 - 17x = 17x - 17x[/tex]

[tex]-10x + 6 = 0[/tex]

-Subtract [tex]6[/tex] to both sides:

[tex]-10x + 6 - 6 = 0 - 6[/tex]

[tex]-10x = -6[/tex]

-Divide both sides by [tex]-10[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{-10x}{-10} = \frac{-6}{-10}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed { x = \frac{3}{5}}[/tex]

So, the value of [tex]x[/tex] is [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Hailey cuts a 7-inch square piece of plywood for a birdhouse. She rotates the piece 90° counterclockwise. What is the length in inches of each side of the piece of plywood after the rotation?
Can someone please help me ASAP!!

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{7\ \text{inches}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

As I mentioned earlier with a single side (line), rotations do not change the size of something. Only dilations do that. This goes for both lines AND shapes.

However, if the question said she dilated the piece, then yes, the length in inches would be different. However, rotation just changes the position and nothing happens to the length.

Hope this helped!

1.4 has 2 significant digits as a result of which rule? a. All nonzero numbers are significant. b. Zeros between nonzero digits are significant. c. Final zeros after the decimal point are significant. d. Zeros used solely for spacing the decimal point are not significant.

Answers

Answer:

All non zero digits count in significant digits.

(a) is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

1.4 has 2 significant digits.

We know that,

Significant digits :

All non zero digits count in significant digits.

All zero which is present in between two significant digits it is also significant.

Leading zero is not count as significant.

Trailing zero is count as significant.

We need to find 1.4 has 2 significant digits as a result of which rule

Using given rules

1.4 has 2 significant digits it is follows the rule of all non zero digits count in significant digits.

Hence, All non zero digits count in significant digits.

(a) is correct option.

Members of the theater club sold tickets for the spring
musical. On Friday night, they made $125 in presales a
sold 120 tickets at the door. For the Saturday night sho
they earned $180 in presales and sold 110 tickets at the
door, If the theater club earned the same amount each
night, what is t, the cost per ticket?

Answers

Answer:

C. 125 + 120x = 180 + 110x

t = $5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A.125t + 120 = 180t + 110

B. 120t + 110t = 125 + 180

C. 125 + 120t = 180 + 110t

D. 125 - 120t = 180 - 110t

Friday

$125 + 120t

Saturday

110t + 180

equate Friday and Saturday

125 + 120t = 110t + 180

Collect like terms

125 - 180 = 110t - 120t

-55 = -10t

Divide both sides by -10

t = -55 / -10

= 5.5

t = $5.5

Answers

Mark wants to fence 4 rectangular gardens. So we calculate the perimeter of the each garden by this formula

P = 2(L) + 2(W)

Total Length of the garden =

=

Length = 18.5 feet

Total width of the garden =

=

Width = 9.0 feet

Perimeter of the garden = 18.5 + 9 = 27.5 feet

Mark wants to fence 4 garden

Therefore, 27.5 × 4 = 110 feet.

Mark needs 110 ft. fencing to surround all 4 gardens.

If a football player passes a football from 4 feet off the ground with an initial velocity of 36 feet per second, how long will it take the football to hit the ground? Use the equation h = −16t2 + 6t + 4. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

0.65

0.27

Answers

Given:

The height of ball is represented by the equation is

[tex]h=-16t^2+6t+4[/tex]

To find:

The time taken by ball to hit the ground.

Solution:

First we need to find the zeroes of the given equation. So, for zeroes h=0.

[tex]-16t^2+6t+4=0[/tex]

Here, [tex]a=-16,b=6,c=4[/tex]. Usingquadratic formula, we get

[tex]t=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]t=\dfrac{-6\pm \sqrt{6^2-4(-16)(4)}}{2(-16)}[/tex]

[tex]t=\dfrac{-6\pm \sqrt{36+256}}{-32}[/tex]

[tex]t=\dfrac{-6\pm \sqrt{292}}{-32}[/tex]

[tex]t=-\dfrac{-6+ 17.088}{-32},\dfrac{-6+ 17.088}{-32}[/tex]

[tex]t=0.7215,-0.3465[/tex]

Time cannon be negative. So, at t=0.7215 the ball will hit the ground. Time taken by ball to hit the ground is

[tex]t=0.7215-0[/tex]

[tex]t=0.7215[/tex]

Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

[tex]t\approx 0.72[/tex]

So, the ball will hit the ground after 0.72 seconds.

Therefore, the correct option is A.
