Answers

Answer 1

Answer: x=-1/4 and x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer choices you give are extremely hard to figure out, so I hope my explanations and answers help.

The quadratic formula is [tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]. Once we figure out a, b, c, we can plug them into the formula and solve for x.

The standard form equation is ax²+bx+c=0. The equation given matches this so we know that:

a=4

b=5

c=1

Plug them into the formula. There is a [tex]\pm[/tex] symbol, which stands for "plus or minus". This means we solve the formula with addition and subtractions separately. We should have 2 solutions at the end. Let's do them separately to show work.

Solution 1: addition

[tex]x_1=\frac{-5+\sqrt{5^2-4(4)(1)} }{2(4)}[/tex]             [exponents]

[tex]x_1=\frac{-5+\sqrt{25-4(4)(1)} }{2(4)}[/tex]             [multiply]

[tex]x_1=\frac{-5+\sqrt{25-16} }{8}[/tex]                    [inside square root]

[tex]x_1=\frac{-5+\sqrt{9} }{8}[/tex]                          [square root]

[tex]x_1=\frac{-5+3}{8}[/tex]                            [add]

[tex]x_1=\frac{-2}{8}[/tex]                                [divide top and bottom by 2]

[tex]x_1=-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Solution 2: subtraction

[tex]x_2=\frac{-5-\sqrt{5^2-4(4)(1)} }{2(4)}[/tex]             [exponents]

[tex]x_2=\frac{-5-\sqrt{25-4(4)(1)} }{2(4)}[/tex]             [multiply]

[tex]x_2=\frac{-5-\sqrt{25-16} }{8}[/tex]                    [inside square root]

[tex]x_2=\frac{-5-\sqrt{9} }{8}[/tex]                          [square root]

[tex]x_2=\frac{-5-3}{8}[/tex]                            [subtract]

[tex]x_2=\frac{-8}{8}[/tex]                                [divide]

[tex]x_2=-1[/tex]

I am not able to find the answer choices, but we know that x=-1/4 and x=-1.

Let f(x) = log base 3 of x and g(x) = 3^x.
What is the value of

[f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))?]

I will mark 1st correct answer as brainliest

Answers

The value of the composite function [f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))], when f(x) = log₃(x) and g(x) = 3ˣ is 1

How to evaluate the composite function

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Let f(x) = log base 3 of x and g(x) = 3^x.

Express the equations properly

So, we have the following representations

f(x) = log₃(x) and g(x) = 3ˣ

Calculating the composite function [f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))], we have

[f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))] = [f(g(f(f(f(3²⁷))))))]

Next, we have:

[f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))] = [f(g(f(f(log₃(3²⁷))))))]

This gives

[f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))] = [f(g(f(f(27))))))]

For f(27), we have

[f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))] = [f(g(f(3)))))]

For f(3), we have

[f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))] = [f(g(1))))]

Calculating g(1), we have

[f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))] = f(3)

Lastly, we have

[f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))] = log₃(3)

Evaluate

[f(g(f(f(f(g(27))))))] = 1

Hence, the solution is 1

Theoretically, if a fruit is chosen 300 times, how many times would you expect to pick an apple or banana?

Answers

The answer is 90 times to expect picking an apple or banana.

If the fruit is chosen 300 times, then it would be a 1:3 ratio of apple or banana to the other fruits. This means that 100 times out of the 300 times, you would expect to pick an apple or banana.

Predicting the outcome using the experiment results because 300 times is a sizable number.

8+4 is either an apple or a banana in 40 times.

Therefore, the solution would be x in 300 times.

Answers

The initial saving of the Winston was $55952.48

Compound Interest

Compound interest is when you receive interest on both your interest income and your savings.

According to the question given,

Let the initial savings amount be P

We know Compound interest =

[tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]

Where,

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times interest is applied per year

t = number of time periods elapsed

Given,

A = $65000

t = 3 years

r = 5% = 0.05

n = 2 *12 = 24

So

65000 = P(1 + (0.05/24))^72

P =  $55952.48

Therefore the initial savings was  $55952.48

Find the volume of the two scoops of ice cream combined with the ice cream inside the
cone.

Answers

The volume is 23 inches long.

Answer:

(1/3) (44.5)π cm3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the two scoops of ice cream combined with the ice cream inside the cone can be calculated as follows:

Volume of cone = (1/3) π (3/2)2h = (1/3) π (4.5)8 = (1/3) (35.5)π

Volume of scoop = (1/6) π d3 = (1/6) (3)π

Total volume = (1/3) (35.5)π + 2(1/6) (3)π = (1/3) (44.5)π cm3.

Solve the following system of inequalities graphically on the set of axes below. State the coordinates of a point in the solution set. y < c - 1 y > x -4

Answers

The graph of the inequality system is attached. The coordinate of a point in the solution set is (-1, 2).

In order to graph the system of inequalities graphically, consider the equation of each inequality.

y = x – 1

y = x - 4

Choosing a few values of x, plot the graph for each equation. Shade the area bounded by the line based on the inequality. If the inequality is less than, shade the area right to the line and if the inequality is greater than, shade the area left to the line. Hence, y < x – 1 is represented by red area and y > x – 4 is represented by blue area. The overlapping shaded area contains the coordinates that represent the solution of the inequality system.

The area of the isosceles triangle having two sides 12.5 cm and another 20cm is 75cm².

What is a triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided closed-plane figure formed by joining three noncolinear points. Based on the side property triangles are of three types they are Equilateral triangle, Scalene triangle, and Isosceles triangle.

We know that an isosceles triangle has two sides having the same length and the third one is different.

We also know that the area of an isosceles triangle is (1/2)×b×√(a² - b²/4),

where b is the value of the third side and a is the value of two similar sides.

Therefore, The area of the isosceles triangle having side lengths of two similar sides is 12.5 cm and the third side is 20 cm is,

= (1/2)×20×√((12.5)²- (20)²/4) cm²,

= 10×√(156.25 - 100) cm².

Answers

The odds against exactly 5 cars passing over the bridge in that time are given as follows:

What is the relation between probabilities and odds?

A probability is calculated as the division of the number of desired outcomes by the number of total outcomes.

An odd, conversely, is calculated as the division of the number of desired outcomes by the number of non-desired outcomes.

The probability(in favor) that 5 cars will pass over a small bridge in a 4-minute period is 0.16, hence the odds are given as follows:

0.16 : (1 - 0.16) = 0.16 : 0.84.

To obtain the odds against, we must exchange the desired and the non-desired outcomes, meaning that the odds against is then given as follows:

0:84 : 0.16.

As the quotient of 84 by 16 is of 5.25, the simplified odd is given as follows:

VX is a midsegment of triangle UWYUY = 13p - 1 and VX = 20p - 95

This means that

UY = 2 * VX

Substitute the known values in the above equation, so, we have the following representation

13p - 1 = 2 * (20p - 95)

Evaluate the products

13p - 1 = 40p - 190

So, we have

40p - 13p = 190 - 1

So, we have

27p = 189

Divide by 27

p = 7

Substitute p = 7 in UY = 13p - 1

UY = 13 * 7 - 1

So, we have

UY = 90

Hence, the length is 90 units

What value is X in math?

Answers

Answer:

Any value

Step-by-step explanation:

X is a variable, meaning it can be any number, and they are just using our variable, x, as a little mask to hide the exact value. In math, we will usually need to find x by solving different equations.

Examples:

x + 4 = 7

Know, x in this case is 3 because we just know 3 + 4 = 7, but x can be any value, and sometimes it gets more complicated than this. For example, we can have something like:

2x + 8 = 16

In this case, we need to have multiple steps to solve for x. First, we minus 8 from both sides:

2x = 8

Then we divide by 2:

x = 4

So, we know x = 4. In conclusion, x is a variable that is hiding a value, and you will need to either solve or substitute x. Meaning x can be any value.

So Amy needs to use 2 pounds of Colombia beans and 32 pounds of Kenya beans to create her blend.

Define Unitary Method.

The unitary approach is a strategy for problem-solving that involves first determining the value of a single unit, then multiplying that value to determine the required value.

What is direct and indirect variation in the unitary method?

We are aware that an inverse variation or indirect variation occurs when two values are coupled in a way that a rise in one generates a corresponding reduction in the other, and vice versa.

Let x be the number of pounds of Kenya beans and y be the number of pounds of Colombia beans. We know that:

x + y = 30 (since the blend is 30 pounds)

We also know that the blend sells for $8.50 per pound, so the total cost of the blend is:

8.50(x + y) = 8.50(30) = $255

We know that the cost of the Kenya beans is $9.00 per pound and the cost of the Colombia beans is $7.50 per pound, so the total cost of the Kenya beans is:

9.00x and the total cost of the Colombia beans is 7.50y

We can set up the following equation:

9x + 7.5y = 255

We have 2 equations and 2 variables, we can solve this system of equation by different methods, one of them is substitution:

x + y = 30

9x + 7.5y = 255

We can substitute the first equation into the second equation

9(x + y) + 7.5y = 255

9(30) + 7.5y = 255

270 + 7.5y = 255

7.5y = -15

y = -2

So Amy needs to use 2 pounds of Colombia beans. We can substitute that value into the first equation to find the amount of Kenya beans:

x + (-2) = 30

x = 32

So Amy needs to use 32 pounds of Kenya beans.

A card i picked at random from a deck of 52 card. Find the probability that the card i either a queen or a diamond

Answers

the probability that the card is either a queen or a diamond is: 4/13

What is probability?

A probability is a number that expresses the possibility or likelihood that a specific event will take place. Probabilities can be stated as proportions with a range of 0 to 1, or as percentages with a range of 0% to 100%.

the proportion between the total number of conceivable outcomes and the number of outcomes in a comprehensive collection of equally probable alternatives that result in a particular occurrence.

Example: When flipping a coin, there are only two possible outcomes: either it will land on its head or on its tail.

Number of cards, n(S) = 52

Let E = Event of getting a diamond

F = Event of getting a queen

(E ∩ F) = Event of getting a diamond of queen.

Then, n(E) = 13

n(F) = 4 ,

n (E ∩ F)=1

P(E) = 13/52 = 1/4

P (F) = 4/52 = 1/13

P (E ∩ F) = 1/52

(E or F) = P(E ∪ F) = P(E) + P(F) × P(E ∩ F)

P (E or F) = 1/4 + 1/13 - 1/52

P (E or F) = (13 + 4 - 1)/52

P (E or F) = 16/52

P (E or F) = 4/13

The required probability of getting either diamond or a queen is 4/13

does the order of the quantities in an inequality matter

Answers

The order of the quantities in an inequality matters. Therefore, it is true.

How to illustrate the inequality?

An inequality in mathematics is a relation that compares two numbers or other mathematical expressions in an unequal way. The most frequent application is to size-compare two numbers on a number line.

When resolving an inequality, you can do one of the following: Add the same amount to each side; Subtract the same amount from each side; Multiply or divide each side by the same positive amount. You must flip the inequality symbol if you multiply or divide each side by a negative number.

Therefore, the order matters.
