What is the positive root of the equation x2 + 5x = 150?
ao

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 5x = 150

x^2 + 5x - 150 = 0

This equation will factor:

(x - 10)(x + 15) = 0

x - 10 = 0 or x + 15 = 0, so:

x = 10 or -15.

Answer 2
Answer:  x = 10 is the positive root

================================================

Work Shown:

First get everything to one side

[tex]x^2 + 5x = 150\\\\x^2 + 5x - 150 = 0\\\\[/tex]

Now use the quadratic formula

Plug in a = 1, b = 5, c = -150.

[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(5)\pm\sqrt{(5)^2-4(1)(-150)}}{2(1)}\\\\x = \frac{-5\pm\sqrt{625}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-5\pm25}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-5+25}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-5-25}{2}\\\\x = \frac{20}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-30}{2}\\\\x = 10 \ \text{ or } \ x = -15\\\\[/tex]

Factoring, completing the square, or graphing are alternative methods to get these two answers. We see that the positive root is x = 10.

Find each measurement. (The figure is not drawn to scale.)

Answers

Answer:

a. m∠Z =  62

b. [tex]m\widehat{WZ}[/tex] = 118

c.  m∠W = 62

d. [tex]m\widehat{WX}[/tex] = 122°

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The given parameters are;

m∠X = 118

[tex]\overline {WZ} \cong \overline {YZ}[/tex]

m∠Y = 120

m∠X + m∠Z = 180  Angles in opposite segment are supplementary

m∠Z = 180 - m∠X  = 180 - 118 = 62

m∠Z =  62

b. Given [tex]\overline {WZ} \cong \overline {YZ}[/tex] line drawn from W to Y forms isosceles triangles WZY, with base angles ∠WYZ and ∠YWZ equal (Base angles of an isosceles triangle)

Therefore

∠WYZ + ∠YWZ + m∠Z = 180 (Angle sum theorem)

∠WYZ = ∠YWZ (Substitution property of equality)

∠WYZ + ∠YWZ + m∠Z = ∠WYZ + ∠WYZ + m∠Z =180

2×∠WYZ + 62 =180

2×∠WYZ = 180 -62 = 118°

∠WYZ =  118°/2 =59

∠WYZ = ∠YWZ = 59

[tex]m\widehat{WZ}[/tex] subtends chord WZ at the center  =  ∠WYZ  subtends chord WZ at the circumference

∴ 2×∠WYZ = [tex]m\widehat{WZ}[/tex]

[tex]m\widehat{WZ}[/tex]  = 2×59 = 118

[tex]m\widehat{WZ}[/tex] = 118

c.  m∠X + m∠Y + m∠Z + m∠W = 360 (Sum of angles in a quadrilateral)

m∠W = 360 - (m∠X + m∠Y + m∠Z) = 360 - (118 + 120 + 60) = 62

m∠W = 62

d. [tex]m\widehat{WZ}[/tex] + [tex]m\widehat{WX}[/tex] = [tex]m\widehat{XWZ}[/tex]  (Angle addition postulate)

[tex]m\widehat{XWZ}[/tex] = 2 × ∠Y (Angle subtended at the center = 2 × Angle subtended at the circumference

∴ [tex]m\widehat{XWZ}[/tex] = 2 × 120 = 240

[tex]m\widehat{WX}[/tex] = [tex]m\widehat{XWZ}[/tex] - [tex]m\widehat{WZ}[/tex]

[tex]m\widehat{WX}[/tex] = 240 - 118 = 122°

[tex]m\widehat{WX}[/tex] = 122°.

Erick just answered a help-wanted ad. The ad states that the job pays $45K 1 point
annually. What would Erick's monthly salary be if he gets this job?

Answers

Answer:

Per month salary = $3,750

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Annual pay = $45,000

Find:

Per month salary

Computation:

Number of month in a year = 12

Per month salary = Annual pay / Number of month in a year

Per month salary = $45,000 / 12

Per month salary = $3,750

The number of rainbow smelt in Lake Michigan had an average rate of change of −19.76 per year between 1990 and 2000. The bloater fish population had an average rate of change of −92.57 per year during the same time. If the initial population of rainbow smelt was 227 and the initial population of bloater fish was 1,052, after how many years were the two populations equal? The linear function that models the population of rainbow smelt is y1 = −19.76x + 227, where x = the years since 1990 and y1 = the number of rainbow smelt. The linear function that models the population of bloater fish is y2 = . The linear equation that determines when the two populations were equal is –19.76x + 227 = –92.57x + 1052 . The solution is x = years.

Answers

Answer:

x= 11.33 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Y1= −19.76x + 227

Y2= = –92.57x + 1052

Y1 = Y2

–19.76x + 227 = –92.57x + 1052

Collect like terms and Simplify

-19.76x + 92.57x = 1052 - 227

72.81x = 825

Divide both sides by 72.81

x= 825 / 72.81

=11.33 years

Therefore,

x= 11.33 years

The solution for x is 11.33 years.

Given,

The linear function that models the population of rainbow smelt is[tex]y_{1} = -19.76x + 227[/tex]

The linear function that models the population of bloater fish is [tex]y_{2} =-92.57x + 1052[/tex]

Since, According to the question,

[tex]y_{2}=y_{1}[/tex]

[tex]-19.76x + 227 =-92.57x+1052[/tex]

On solving for x

[tex]-19.76x + 92.57x = 1052 - 227[/tex]

[tex]72.81x = 825[/tex]

Divide both sides by 72.81

[tex]x= \dfrac{825}{72.81}[/tex]

[tex]x=11.33 \ years[/tex]

Hence the solution for x is 11.33 years.

Mr. Johnson hired a contractor to build a small deck on the back of his house. The cost of materials alone added to $678.12. When he received the final bill from the contractor, the total amount charged was $1206.12. Verify the accuracy of this bill if labor amounted to 16.5 hours at $32 an hour​

Answers

Answer:

Yes, the bill is absolutely accurate

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of materials= $ 678.12

Final  bill amount(given)=$1206.12

Rate= $32 per hour for 16.5 hrs

Total amount for 32 hrs = time * rate = 16.5* 32=$528

Therefore, by the problem ,

Cost of materials+ Total amount  for 32 hrs = Final bill amount

= 678.12+ 528

=1206.12

Therefore , the final bill amount is 100% accurate as it completely matches with the given bill amount

Joey participated in a standardized reading test. He scored in the middle of the third stanine in a normal distribution. All of the following are incorrect except:_________. a. His score was the median for the group that participated in the test.b. His t-score is 40.c. His score fell at +2 standard deviationd. His score fell at a z-score of -3.

Answers

Answer:

b. His t-score is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

The middle of the third stanine in a normal distribution means that the standard of nine that is applied has the middle of the third count.

It means that if we divide the normal distribution with the standard of nine we will find the score to be  the middle of the  third division.

So it will be (1/3*9=3) more than 3.

Which in normal distribution will be more than 30.

The t distribution is approximately normal when the number of degrees of freedom is greater than 30 .

So the best answer is that His t-score is 40  ( choice b).

23h Sam will be going shopping on Dec 26. He currently has $150. He wants to buy pants for $90 and
t-shirts for $12.50 each. He expects to get at most $150 for Christmas. How many t-shirts can he expect to
purchase?

Answers

Answer:

4 t shirts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that money available with Sam = $150

Price for pants = $90

Price of each t shirt = $12.50

To find:

How many t shirts can he expect to purchase?

Solution:

Price for 2 pants = $180 which is more than $150.

Therefore, he can not buy more than 1 pants.

The remaining amount after buying pants = $150 - $90 = $60

This amount will be used for buying t-shirts.

Number of t-shirts that can be bought:

[tex]\dfrac{60}{12.5} \approx 4.8[/tex]

But answer in decimal points for number of t shirts is not possible and he does not have more money.

It means, he can buy at most 4 t-shirts.

What is the range of the following set of measurements?
"24.35 cm, 22.51 cm, 20.98 cm, 20.98, 30.33 cm, 30.98 cm"
The range is
cm.

Answers

Answer:

The range is 10 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of a set is the difference of the largest and smallest values of the set. Looking at the data, we see that 30.98 cm is the largest value and 20.98 is the smallest value so the range is 30.98 - 20.98 = 10 cm.

Answer:

The answer is

10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the range in a given set of data subtract the lowest observation from the highest observation

From the question

The highest measurement = 30.98 cm

The lowest measurement = 20.98 cm

So the range is

30.98 cm - 20.98 cm

We have the final answer as

10 cm
