Which statement about the following equation is true?
[tex]2x^2-9x+2 = -1[/tex]
A) The discriminant is less than 0, so there are two real roots
B) The discriminant is less than 0, so there are two complex roots
C) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots
D) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two complex roots
Answer:
C) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is [tex]2x^2-9x+2 = -1[/tex] which by simplification becomes
[tex]2x^2 - 9x + 3 = 0[/tex]
For a quadratic equation of the form [tex]ax^2 + bx + c = 0[/tex], the discriminant is given by the equation, [tex]D = b^2 - 4ac[/tex]
If the discriminant D is greater than 0, the roots are real and different
If the discriminant D is equal to 0, the roots are real and equal
If the discriminant D is less than 0, the roots are imaginary
For the quadratic equation under consideration, a = 2, b = -9, c = 3
Let us calculate the discriminant D
D = (-9)² - 4(2)(3)
D = 81 - 24
D = 57
Since the Discriminant D is greater than 0, the roots are real and different.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
C) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots
Solve the equation.
y + 3 = -y + 9
y= 1
y=3
y = 6
y = 9
Answer: y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation, we want to get the same terms onto the same side and solve.
y+3=-y+9 [add y on both sides]
2y+3=9 [subtract 3 on both sides]
2y=6 [divide 2 on both sides]
y=3
Answer:
y=3

You are looking to invest in several different real estate deals. You have received ceconomic reports that explain the probability of good economic conditions will be .6 and .4 for bad economic conditions. Below is the Payoff Table, and after calculating the expected value for each decision, you determine the best "payoff deal is:
Good Economic Bad Economic
Conditions Condition (.60) Conditions (.40)
Apartment Building 50,000 30,000
Office Building $100,000 $-40,000
Warehouse 30,000 $10,000
A. Apartment Building
B. Office Building
C. Warehouse
D. None of the above.
Answer:
Real Estate Deals
The best "payoff deal:"
B. Office Building
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Payoff Table
Good Economic Bad Economic
Conditions Conditions
Probability (.60) (.40)
Apartment Building $50,000 $30,000
Office Building $100,000 $-40,000
Warehouse $30,000 $10,000
B) Calculation of Expected Values:
Good Economic Bad Economic Expected Values
Conditions Conditions
Probability (.60) (.40)
Apartment Building $30,000 $12,000 $42,000
Office Building $60,000 $-16,000 $44,000
Warehouse $18,000 $4,000 $22,000
b) The expected value for these real estate deals can be derived as the sum of the payoffs under the two economic conditions after they have been weighed with their odds of occurrence. The office building, in this example, showed the best payoff deal as the expected payoff from it results to a payoff of $44,000, which is higher than the expected payoff from the Apartment and Warehouse. However, it is also the riskiest, especially when bad economic conditions occur. This also accords with the general economic risk-return pattern that higher risky investments attract higher returns.
Write Given f(x)=2−4x−−−−−√ and g(x)=−3x, find the following: a. (g∘f)(x) the domain and range of the function using interval notation.
Answer:
If we have two functions g(x) and f(x)
I suppose that the functions here are:
f(x) = 2 - √(4*x)
g(x) = -3*x
First, let's analyze the functions:
g(x) as not any problem for any value of x, so the domain is the set of all the real numbers.
f(x) has a square root on it, and we know that the square root of a negative number is equal to a complex number, so here we can not have negative values of x.
The domain of f is D = x ∈ {0, ∞}
Then (gof)(x) = g(f(x)) = -3*(2 - √(4*x)) = -6 + 3*√(4*x)
We can see that g(x) does not have any problem, and the problems with f(x) remain there, so the domain of the composition is equal to the domain of f(x):
D = x ∈ {0, ∞}

The school district uses the Hamilton method to apportion its 22 board members to the 4 towns. How many board members are assigned to each town, using this method? 2. The following year, 900 people move out of Town D. Two hundred of these people move Town C, and 700 of them move to Town B. Now, how many board members does each town have? (Be careful. Make sure you assign a total of 22 board members). 3. Compare the results from the 2 years. Do you think they make sense? How do you think each town would react? Are they fair? Why or Why not?
Answer:
(A, B, C, D) = (2, 2, 6, 12)(A, B, C, D) = (2, 2, 6, 12)identical results; yes, they make senseyes they are fairStep-by-step explanation:
1. The Hamilton method has you compute the number represented by each board member (total population/# members). Using this factor, the number of board members for each district are computed. This raw value is rounded down.
Because this total does not allocate all board members, the remaining members of the board are allocated to the districts based on the size of the fraction that was truncated when rounding down. Allocations start with the largest fraction and work down until all board members have been allocated.
The attached spreadsheet implements this algorithm using a "threshold" that is adjusted to a value between 0 and 1, signifying the cutoff point between a fraction value that gets an additional member and one that doesn't. (Often, that threshold can be set at 0.5, equivalent to rounding the raw board member value to the nearest integer.)
The resulting allocations are ...
Town A: 2
Town B: 2
Town C: 6
Town D: 12
__
2. The second attachment shows the result after the population move. The allocations of board members are identical.
__
3. The "factor" (persons per board member) is about 4500, so we don't expect a move of 900 people to make any difference in the allocation. These results make complete sense.
__
4. Of course each town will consider its own interest at the expense of everyone else, so they may or may not consider the results fair. The towns have population ratio of about 9 : 9 : 25 : 56, so the ratios 2 : 2 : 6 : 12 are quite in line. Even in the second year, when the ratios are closer to 9 : 10 : 26 : 56, the changes are small enough that the allocation of board members still makes sense. The results are fair.
_____
Comment on "fair"
The reason there are different methods of allocation is that each seeks to rectify some perceived flaw in one or more of the others. The reason there is not a general agreement on the method to be used is that some benefit more from one method than from another. "Fair" is in the eye of the beholder. I believe in this case it would be very difficult to justify any other allocations than the ones computed here.
which of the following descriptions represent the transformation shown in the image? Part 1d
Answer:
(C) Translation of 2 units right, 1 up, and a reflection over the y-axis.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ideally, we are looking for a reflection of the red image over the y-axis, and to do that, we can see how we need to move the black image.
In order for points Q and Q' to be a reflection of each other, they need to have the same y value, and be the exact same distance from the y axis, so the point that Q has to be at is (-1,-3).
Q is right now at (-3,-4) so we can translate this.
To get from -3 to -1 in the x-axis, we go right by 2 units.
To get from -4 to -3 in the y-axis, we go up one unit.
Now, if we reflect it, the triangles will be the same.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you study the images, it is clear that the black triangle has to be reflected over the y-axis to face the same direction as the red triangle. So, choice A is eliminated.
Once you reflect the black triangle across the y-axis, you have points at (-1, -1), (3, -4), and (3, -2). Meanwhile, the red triangle's coordinates are at (-3, 0), (1, -3), and (1, -1). From these points, you can tell that the x-values differ by 2 units and the y-values differ by 1 unit.
All of these conditions match the ones put forth in option C, so that is your answer.

Could someone answer the question with the photo linked below? Then explain how to solve it?
Answer:
b = sqrt(57)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
8^2 + b^2 = 11^2
64+ b^2 = 121
Subtract 64
b^2 = 121-64
b^2 =57
Take the square root of each side
b = sqrt(57)
A certain forest covers an area of 2100 km². Suppose that each year this area decreases by 3.5%. What will the area be after 5 years
Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest square kilometer.
Answer:
[tex]\large\boxed{\sf \ \ \ 1757 \ km^2 \ \ \ }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
I would recommend that you checked the answers I have already provided as this is the same method for all these questions, and maybe try to solve this one before you check the solution.
At the beginning the area is 2100
After one year the area will be
2100*(1-3.5%)=2100*0.965
After n years the area will be
[tex]2100\cdot0.965^n[/tex]
So after 5 years the area will be
[tex]2100\cdot0.965^5=1757.34027...[/tex]
So rounded to the nearest square kilometer is 1757
Hope this helps
Answer: 1757 km²
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 3.5% = 0.035, first do 1-.035 to get .965. Then do 2100*.965*.965*.965*.965*.965 to get 1757.34027.
a food snack manufacturer samples 9 bags of pretzels off the assembly line and weights their contents. If the sample mean is 14.2 oz. and teh sample devision is 0.70 oz, find the 95% confidense interval of the true mean
Answer:
13.7≤[tex]\mu[/tex]≤14.7Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating the confidence interval is expressed as shown;
CI = xbar ± Z(б/√n)
xbar is the sample mean
Z is the value at 95% confidence interval
б is the standard deviation of the sample
n is the number of samples
Given xbar = 14.2, Z at 95% CI = 1.96, б = 0.70 and n = 9
Substituting this values into the formula;
CI = 14.2 ± 1.96(0.70/√9)
CI = 14.2 ± 1.96(0.70/3)
CI = 14.2 ± 1.96(0.2333)
CI = 14.2 ± 0.4573
CI = (14.2-0.4573, 14.2+0.4573)
CI = (13.7427, 14.6537)
Hence, the 95% confidence interval of the true mean is within the range
13.7≤[tex]\mu[/tex]≤14.7 (to 1 decimal place).

Which expression is equivalent to 0.83¯ ?
Answer:
Hello There!!
Step-by-step explanation:
Your answer will be 83/99. Because, We have to expressed the 0.83¯ as a fraction in simplest form. Let x = 0.83¯ = 0.8383. Then, We have to multiply by 100 to both sides we have: 100x = 83.8383. After, Subtract (One) to (Two) we will have: 99x = 83. Then, We will divide both sides by 99 we have: x = 83/99. Therefore, the 0.83¯ as a fraction in simplest form is, 83/99.

The length, width and height are consecutive whole numbers. The volume is 120 cubic inches.
Answer:
4, 5 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive means right next to each other.
4 x 5 x 6 = 120 cubic inches.
4 X 5 = 20
20 X 6 = 120
The values of the consecutive numbers will be 4, 5, and 6.
Let the numbers be represented by a, a+1, and a+2.
Therefore, a(a+1)(a+2) = 120
a³ + 3a² + 2a = 120
a = 4
Therefore, a + 1 = 4+1 = 5
a + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6
Therefore, the values will be 4, 5, and 6.

Simplify the rate:
46 cans of Soda / 8 people
Only enter the numeric amount:
Answer: 23 cans of soda/4 people.
or (23/4) cans of soda per person.
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the rate:
46 cans of soda/ 8 people
First, 46 and 8 are multiples of 2, so we can divide both numerator and denominator by 2:
46/2 = 23
8/2 = 4
Then the rate can be:
23 cans of soda/4 people.
Now 23 is a prime number, so we can not simplify it furthermore

What is Quadratic Equation?
A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax²+ bx + c = 0. with a ≠ 0. Because it is a second-order polynomial equation, the fundamental theorem of algebra guarantees that it has at least one solution. The solution may be real or complex.
Given data ,
The polynomial function is of second degree with zeros of -7 and 6
So , x = -7 and x = 6
Let the function be f ( x ) where f ( x ) = ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )
Now , as x tends to infinity , the negative makes no such difference on the zeros of the function f ( x ) ,
And , f ( x ) = - ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )
Therefore , to find the polynomial function , f ( x ) = - ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )
f ( x ) = - [ x² - 6 x + 7 x - 42 ]
= - [ x² + x - 42 ]
= - x ² - x + 42
Hence , the polynomial function f ( x ) = - x ² - x + 42

Frequency 16 42 10
The limits of the class with the smallest frequency are:_________
A) $6.00 and $9.00.
B) $12.00 and up to $14.00.
C) $11.75 and $14.25.
D) $12.00 and up to $15.00.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
$12.00 and up to $15.00 (D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us arrange the data properly in a tabular format.
Hourly Earnings($) 6 - 9 9 - 12 12 - 15
Frequency 16 42 10
The frequency of a distribution is the number of times that distribution occurs in a particular group of data or intervals.
From the frequency table above the following observations can be made:
Highest frequency = 42 (hourly earnings of $9 - $12)
smallest frequency = 10 ( hourly earnings of $12 - $15)
This means that among a total of 68 workers (16 + 42 + 10), the people earning $12 - $15 form the smallest group (only 10 people), while 42 workers earn $9 - $12, forming the largest majority

2). f(x) = 5 if 2 ≤ x < 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph attached shows the function in two pieces.
1). Parabola
2). A straight line parallel to the x-axis.
Standard equation of a parabola is,
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) is the vertex.
Vertex of the given parabola is (0, 0).
Equation of the parabola will be,
y = a(x - 0)² + 0
Therefore, the function will be,
f(x) = ax²
Given parabola is passing through (-1, 1) also,
