Find the possible values of k if one of the roots of the quadratic equation x^2 - kx + 8 = 0 is twice the other.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]k=\pm 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is :

[tex]x^2 - kx + 8 = 0[/tex]

One of the roots of this equation is twice that of the other. Let the roots are [tex]\alpha \ and\ \beta[/tex], [tex]\alpha =2\beta[/tex]

Sum of roots, [tex]\alpha +\beta =\dfrac{-b}{a}[/tex]

[tex]\alpha +\beta =\dfrac{-(-k)}{1}\\\\\alpha +\beta =k\\\\3\beta =k\ .......(1)[/tex]

Product of roots,

[tex]\alpha \beta =\dfrac{c}{a}\\\\2\beta ^2=\dfrac{8}{1}\\\\\beta =\pm 2[/tex]

If [tex]\beta =\pm2[/tex],

[tex]k=3(2)\\\\=\pm 6[/tex]

So, the value of k is equal to [tex]\pm 6[/tex].

Timia needs so cash in a hurry she owns her car outright and is considering a title loan. The lender told timia she could borrow 1750 for 1 month

Answers

The question is incomplete ; the fee which Timia would pay isn't given. And this is needed to compute the APR on the loan.

I would assume that the fee which Timia would pay as interest on the 1 - month loan is x

Answer:

r = x / 145.83333

Step-by-step explanation:

If interest paid, I = x

Principal, P = $1750

And period (time) of loan = 1 month = (1/12) = 0.0833333

Rate = r

Using the simple interest formula :

Interest = Principal * rate * time

x = 1750 * r * 0.833333

Make r the subject :

x = 145.83333r

Divide both sides by 145.83333

Hence, the rate value , r becomes :

r = x / 145.83333

Therefore, the student can just input the appropriate, interest value in place of x and obtain the correct and exact answer (I do not want to use an hypothetical value for x) .

Malia and Omar want to find the shortest route from their school to a local burger

hangout. The length of Route A is 1.5 times the length of Route B and ¾ the

length of Route C. If Route C is 3 kilometers long, then Route A is how many

kilometers longer than Route B?

Answers

Answer:

Route A is 0.75 km longer than route B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of route A is 1.5 times the length of route B.

a = 1.5b

[tex]\frac{a}{b}=\frac{15}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{b}=\frac{3}{2}[/tex] --------(1)

Here, a = Length of route A

b = Length of route B

Length of route A is [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of route C.

a = [tex]\frac{3}{4}c[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{c}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex] ------(2)

Here, c = Length of route C

Length of route C = 3 km

Length of route A = [tex]\frac{3}{4}\times 3[/tex] [From equation (2)]

                             = 2.25 km

Length of route B = [tex]\frac{2}{3}\times 2.25[/tex] [From equation (1)]

                             = 1.5 km

Difference in route A and route B = 2.25 - 1.5

                                                       = 0.75 km

Therefore, route A is 0.75 km longer than route B.

m∠1 = 37°

Step-by-step explanation:

if m∠5 = 137 then m∠2 = 43 (supplementary angles)

if m∠7 = 100 then m∠3 = 100 (vertical angles)

m∠1 + m∠2 + m∠3 = 180°

m∠1 + 43 + 100 = 180°


if you’re standing on the street 1,300 feet from the bottom of the building, you have to look up at a 23 degree angle to see the top. How tall is the building ? explain or show your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

551.82feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

WE are given the following from the question;

Distance of me from the bottom of the building = 1300feet (adjacent)

Angle of elevation = 23 degrees

Required

Height (opposite)

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

Tan theta = opp/adj

Tan 23 = H/1300

H = 1300tan23

H = 1300(0.4245)

H = 551.82feet

Hence the building is 551.82feet tall

Point B is a point of tangency. Find the radius r of OC.

Answers

Answer:

r = 16 units

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

AB is the tangent drawn from a point A to the circle C.

BC = r [Radius of the circle]

Length of AC = (18 + r)

AB = 30

By the property of a tangent drawn to a circle,

"Radius of a circle and tangent are perpendicular to each other"

AB ⊥ BC

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,

AB² + BC² = AC²

(30)² + r² = (r + 18)²

900 + r² = r² + 36r + 324

36r = 900 - 324

r = [tex]\frac{576}{36}[/tex]

r = 16 units
