Solve for x. Enter solutions least to greatest.x^2+3x-4=0

Answers

Answer 1

Given the equation:

[tex]\text{ x}^2\text{ + 3x - 4 = 0}[/tex]

To find x, since the equation is in the standard form of Quadratic Equation, we will be using the Quadratic formula:

[tex]\text{ x =}\frac{-b\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

At,

[tex]ax^2\text{ + bx + c = 0}[/tex]

Where,

a = coefficient at = 1

b = coefficient at x = 3

c = constant = -4

Let's plug in the values to find for x:

[tex]\text{ x =}\frac{-b\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex][tex]undefined[/tex]

Side 21 is adjacent to the angle 68

We will use the tan function to find x:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan 68=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\ \\ \tan 68=\frac{x}{21} \\ \\ x=21\cdot\tan 68=51.9768 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Note: Enter your answer and show all the steps that you use to solve this problem in the space provided. It takes Pam 45 minutes to drive to work and 60 minutes to drive home from work. Write the ratio of the time Pam spends driving home from work to the time she spends driving to work in three different ways.

Answers

1) Gathering the data

Pam -----> 45' to drive to work and 60' to drive home

2) Writing the ratio in 3 different ways:

[tex]\frac{d_H}{d_W}\text{ =}\frac{45}{60}\text{ =}\frac{3}{4}=0.75[/tex]

3) So this ratio can be written as 45/60 or 3/4 or 0.75 since we write on the numerator and the denominator the amount of time spent commuting, and the second one is after simplifying and the last one as a decimal number.

in ABC,X is the centroid if XZ=3, What is AZ

Answers

In every triangle, the centroid divides each segment starting through a vertex and passing through it (that is, the segments AZ, BY and CW) in two parts, where one part (starting from the vertex) is two times the other part.

So we have the following relations:

[tex]\begin{gathered} AX=2\cdot XZ \\ CX=2\cdot XW \\ BX=2\cdot XY \end{gathered}[/tex]

So using the value XZ = 3, we can find the value of AX:

[tex]\begin{gathered} AX=2\cdot XZ \\ AX=2\cdot3 \\ AX=6 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then, since the segment AZ is the sum of the segments AX and XZ, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} AZ=AX+XZ \\ AZ=6+3 \\ AZ=9 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So the length of AZ is equal 9.

find u'(4) for[tex]u(x) = h( \sqrt{x} )[/tex]use the table in the picture to solve the equation.

Answers

The equation given:

[tex]u(x)=h(\sqrt[]{x})[/tex]

We need to find u'(4).

This means you put in "4" into the function and see:

So, it becomes:

[tex]\begin{gathered} u(4)=h(\sqrt[]{4}) \\ u(4)=h(2) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, we want u'(4), so we need h'(2).

Looking into row and column of table, we find

h'(x) and "2" ------------>> we get "2".

Hence,

Which of the following is true for the relation f(x)=x^2+8

Answers

Answer: Both the equation and its inverse are functions.

Explanation

Given the equation:

[tex]f\mleft(x\mright)=x^2+8[/tex]

we can use the vertical line test to determine if it is a function:

As no vertical line touches the graph, then it is a function. Additionally, the inverse function can be calculating by interchanging the x and y variables in the original function:

[tex]x=y^2+8[/tex][tex]x-8=y^2[/tex][tex]y=\sqrt{x-8}[/tex]

If we do the same vertical test for the inverse function we will see that both are function.

A population increases by 4% each year. What is the annual growthfactor?

Answers

Answer

Explanation: A annual growth factor represents how quickly a value increases during an entire year. It is represented in the percentage unit % and there are some formulas to calculate the values as the example below

[tex]annual_{\text{ }}growth_{\text{ }}factor=\frac{change\text{ value}}{original\text{ value}}*100[/tex]

As we can see from the question the population increases by 4% each year. The 4% is representing exactly how quick the population is increasing in a year.

Final answer: So the annual growth factor is 4%.

How do you keep the answers on your profile for studying????

Answers

Given:

Number of sample (n) = 50

mean = 300

standard deviation (s) = 47

confidence level = 95%

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated using the formula:

[tex]\text{MOE = z }\times\text{ }\frac{s}{\sqrt[]{n}}[/tex]

Where z is the z-score at the given confidence level

At 95% confidence level, the z-score is 1.960

The margin of error is thus:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{MOE =1.96 }\times\frac{47}{\sqrt[]{50}} \\ =\text{ 13.0277} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The formula to calculate the confidence interval is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} CI=\operatorname{mean}\pm z\frac{s}{\sqrt[]{n}}^{} \\ CI\text{ = mean }\pm\text{ margin of error} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Where :

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{lower bound = mean - margin of error} \\ \text{upper bound = mean + margin of error} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{lower bound = }300\text{ - 13.0277} \\ =\text{ 286.9723} \\ \approx\text{ 287} \\ \text{upper bound = 300 + 13.0277} \\ =\text{ 313.0277} \\ \approx\text{ 313} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, if we to randomly sample from this population 100 times. The probability of having a score between 287 and 313 is 0.95

Eliminate the parameter t. Find rectangular equation for the plane curve defined by the parametric equations

Answers

For this problem, we are given the value of x in the function of t, and the value of y in the function of t. We need to represent y in the function of f.

The first step is to isolate t on the x equation:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\sqrt{t}\\ \\ x^2=t\\ \\ t=x^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then we need to replace the expression for t on the right side of the function for y.

[tex]y=2x^2+4[/tex]

The correct answer is the third one. The interval get decreased in half, because of the relation between x and t.

mom's florist sells two dozen Rose's for 24.60. First flowers sells 6 Rose's for 7.50 which florist had the lower cost per rose?

Answers

We are to compare the cost of each rose sold by two florists.

Mom's florist sells ( n ) number of roses at a certain price ( S ) as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} n\text{ = 2 dozen roses ( 2}\cdot12=24\text{ )} \\ S\text{ = \$24.60} \end{gathered}[/tex]

First florist sells ( k ) number of roses at a certain price ( M ) as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} k\text{ = 6 roses} \\ M\text{ = \$7.5} \end{gathered}[/tex]

We will determine the cost price of each rose ( c ) sold by the two florist.

For Mom's florist:

We will take the ratio of the total cost ( S ) and the number of roses sold ( n ) as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} c_1\text{ = }\frac{S}{n} \\ \\ c_1\text{ = }\frac{24.6}{24} \\ \\ c_1=\frac{\text{\$1.025 }}{rose} \end{gathered}[/tex]

For First florist:

We will take the ratio of the total cost ( M ) and the number of roses sold ( k ) as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} c_2\text{ = }\frac{M}{k} \\ \\ c_2\text{ = }\frac{7.5}{6} \\ \\ c_2=\frac{\text{\$}1.25\text{ }}{rose} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then we compare the cost prices ( c ) for roses sold by each florist:

find the value or measure. Assume all lines that appear to be tangent are tangent. m(angle) FHG=

Answers

Assuming that the lines FG and HG are tangent, you need to remember that, by definition, when two tangents intersect outside a circle, the angle formed by them is the difference of the intercepted arcs divided by 2.

Then:

[tex]AngleFormedbyTwoTangents=\frac{(DifferenceOfInterceptedArcs)}{2}[/tex]

In this case, you know that the angle formed by the tangents FG and HG is:

[tex]\angle FGH[/tex]

And the Intercepted arcs are the following:

[tex]\begin{gathered} FH=97\degree \\ FIH \end{gathered}[/tex]

By definition, a circle has 360 degrees; then you can find the measure of the arc FIH as following:

[tex]\begin{gathered} FIH=360\degree-97\degree=263\degree \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]

Knowing that, you can substitute values into the equation in order to find the measure of the angle FGH:

[tex]m\angle FGH=\frac{263\degree-97\degree}{2}=83\degree[/tex]
