Solve The Equation: X^2-16x+126

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The only possible value for x is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recognize that we are given two different equations for the area, A:

1) A = 63 in^2, and

2) A = x^2 - 16x + 126

These two equations must be equal to each other:  A = A

and therefore,

x^2 - 16x + 126 = 63, which becomes x^2 - 16x + 63 = 0 if we subtract 63 from both sides.

Let's solve this using "completing the square."  Take half of the coefficient of x (which coefficient is -16), halve it (obtaining -8) and square the result (obtaining 64).  Now, between -16x and +63 (see the last equation, above), we write +64 - 64, obtaining:

x^2 - 16x + 64 - 64 + 63, which can be rewritten as:

(x - 8)^2 -1 = 0.  Note that this has the form (x - h)^2 + k, and that h is 8 and k is -1.  Thus, the associated parabolic graph has its vertex at (h, k), or (8, -1).  This graph opens up.  Because the vertex is below the x-axis, we know that the graph intersects the x-axis in two places.

Let's find these x values.  Rewrite (x - 8)^2 -1 = 0 as (x - 8)^2 = 1.  Squaring both sides results in x - 8 = 1, which simplifies to x = 9.  This x = 9 is 1 greater than the x-coordinate of the vertex (8).  Knowing tht the graph is symmetrical about the vertical line x = 8, we can safely assume that x = 7 is the other solution, as it is 1 unit to the left of x = 8.

Now we must check these possible solutions {7, 9}.  

Evaluate the second equation at each 7 and 9 and determine whether the area turns out to be 63 in^2, as it must.

(7)^2 - 16(7) + 126 = 49 + 126 - 112, which in turn is equal to 63.  Yes, x = 7 is a possible value for x.

Next:  x = 9.  (9)^2 - 16(9) + 126 = 81 - 112 + 126 = 95.  This does not agree with A = 63 in^2, so we must reject x = 9.

The only possible value for x is 7.

rental cost for each movie and each video game.
Rental cost for each movie:
Rental cost for each video game:

Answers

Answer:

[tex]M = 1.75[/tex] --- Movies

[tex]V = 5.5[/tex] --- Video games

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the movies with M and the video games with V.

The first month, the expression is:

[tex]2M + 3V = 20[/tex]

The next month, the expression is:

[tex]6M + 5V = 38[/tex]

Required

Find M and V

We have:

[tex]2M + 3V = 20[/tex] --- (1)

[tex]6M + 5V = 38[/tex] --- (2)

Multiply (1) by 3.

3 * [tex]2M + 3V = 20[/tex]

[tex]6M + 9V = 60[/tex] --- (3)

Subtract (1) from (3)

[tex]6M + 9V = 60[/tex]

- [tex]6M + 5V = 38[/tex]

-------------------------

[tex]6M - 6M + 9V - 5V = 60 -38[/tex]

[tex]4V = 22[/tex]

Divide by 4

[tex]V = 5.5[/tex]

Substitute 5.5 for V in (1)

[tex]2M + 3V = 20[/tex]

[tex]2M + 3 * 5,5 = 20[/tex]

[tex]2M + 16.5= 20[/tex]

Subtract 16.5 from both sides

[tex]2M = 3.5[/tex]

Divide by 2

[tex]M = 1.75[/tex]

It is proved that the given decimals are equivalent decimals.

What are equivalent fractions? What is a mathematical function, equation and expression?equivalent fractions : Equivalent fractions can be defined as fractions that may have different numerators and denominators but they represent the same value.function : In mathematics, a function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y. The set X is called the domain of the function and the set Y is called the codomain of the function.expression : A mathematical expression is made up of terms (constants and variables) separated by mathematical operators.equation : A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions.

Given are the fractions -

7/10 and 70/100

We have the following fractions -

A = (7/10) = 0.7

B = 70/100 = (7 x 10)/(10 x 10) = (7/10)

B = (7/10) = 0.7

It can be seen that fraction A equals to B.

Therefore, it is proved that the given decimals are equivalent decimals.

Step-by-step explanation:

A watch seller gained 20% by selling a watch for 1260.If he had to gain 30%,at what price should have he sold it?

Dalton III

Answered December 12, 2020

I shall explain the solution to this problem using rudimentary concepts.

First, we need to determine the original price of the watch.

Convert the percentage profit to a decimal by dividing by 100. In this problem, the profit is 20%, so we would divide:

20100=0.2

Add 1 to the profit expressed as a decimal.

1+0.2=1.2

Divide the price after the profit has been added by the figure which we have calculated to find the price before the profit (we shall assume that the currency used in this problem is the pound sterling)

£12601.2=£1050

Now that we have determined the original price of the watch, we shall determine at what price should the seller sell this watch in order to obtain a 30% gain. The same formula is used for the first two steps.

Convert the intended percentage profit to a decimal by dividing by 100. In this problem, the intended profit is 30%, so we would divide:

30100=0.3

Add 1 to the intended profit expressed as a decimal.

1+0.3=1.3

Now, instead of dividing, we would want to multiply the original price with the figure 1.3

£1050⋅1.3=£1365

So, in order to gain a profit of 30%, the watch seller should sell the watch at a price of £1365

Please help 13 points ?

Answers

Answer:

y = -12x - 77

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of the equation is expressed as y = mx+b

m is the slope

Given the coordinate (-7, 7) and (-6, -5).

m = -5-7/-6+7

m = -12/1

m = -12

Get the intercept b

Substitute m= -12 and (-7 7) into y = mx+b

7 = -12(-7) + b

7 = 84 + b

b = 7 - 84

b = -77

Get the required equation

y = mx+b

y = -12x +(-77)

y = -12x - 77

This gives the required equation
