Find the discriminant of 5x^2+3x-5=0 for x

Answers

Answer 1
The discriminant is 109
Answer 2

For this case we have that by definition, a quadratic equation is of the form:

[tex]ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0[/tex]

Its roots are given by:

[tex]x = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2a}[/tex]

By definition, the discriminant is given by:

[tex]D = b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)[/tex]

According to the given equation we have to:

[tex]a = 5\\b = 3\\c = -5[/tex]

Substituting:

[tex]D = 3 ^ 2-4 (5) (- 5)\\D = 9 + 100\\D = 109[/tex]

Answer:

The discriminant is 109

The equation yˆ=−2.5x+222.5 models the amount of cholesterol, LDL , for a person, in mg/dl , where x is the time spent exercising per day, in minutes.
According to the regression equation, what is the amount of cholesterol for a person exercising 20 minutes a day?
A. 61.5 mg/dl
B. 81.5 mg/dl
C. 172.5 mg/dl
D. 272.5.5 mg/dl

Answers

Answer:

172.5 mg/dl

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation y= -2.5x + 222.5, where 'x' is the time spent exercising in minutes. If we want to know the amount of cholesteron for a person exercising 20 minutes a day, we just have to subtitute 20 into the equation for x.

So we have: y= -2x + 222.5 → y= -2.5(20 minutes) + 222.5 = 172.5 mg/dl

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the coordinates of the polygon HJKL:

H(-1,-6), J(1,-3), K(-5,-1), and L(5,-5)

We know that the polygon HJKL is dilated using the scale factor 3. This means that, to find the coordinates of the vertices of polygon H'J'K'L', we need to multiply the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate of each vertex by this scale factor.

Then:

[tex]H'=(-1(3),-6(3))=(-3,-18)\\\\J'=(1(3),-3(3))=(3,-9)\\\\K'=(-5(3),-1(3))=(-15,-3)\\\\L'=(5(3),-5(3))=(15,-15)[/tex]

A county in North Carolina spans 532 square miles. The population density of deer in the county is 11 deer per square mile.

deer

Answers

Answer:

5852 deer.

Step-by-step explanation:

That would be 11 * 532

= 5852 (answer).

Answer:

There are 5852 deer live in the county.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population density of deer in the county is 11 deer per square mile.

That means, there are 11 deer in 1 square mile in that county.

Given that, the total area of that county is 532 square miles.

For getting the total number of deer, we just need to multiply the 'population density' by the 'total area'.

So, the total number of deer [tex]=(11\times 532)= 5852[/tex]

Which expression is equivalent to
2x^2+2x-4/2x^2-4x+2

Answers

Answer: A is correct (x+2)/(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the top and bottom by 2, to simplify

[2(x^2+x-2)]/[2(x^2+2x+1)]

The 2's cancel each other out, since 2/2 would be 1.

Now factor (x^2+x-2)/(x^2+2x+1)

[(x+2)(x-1)]/[(x-1)(x-1)]

Now you can cancel out one of the (x-1) on top and bottom. All that's left is (x+2)/(x-1) which is your answer. Hope this helps!

What equation represents an exponential function that passes through the point (2, 80)?


Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = (4\sqrt{5})^{x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function looks like the following: [tex]f(x) = b^{x}[/tex].

If the function passes through the point (2, 80), then:

[tex]f(x) = b^{x}[/tex] → [tex]80 = b^{2}[/tex]

Solving for 'b':

[tex]b = \sqrt{80}[/tex] →[tex]b=4\sqrt{5}[/tex]

Then, the equation of exponential function that passes through the point (2, 80) is: [tex]f(x) = (4\sqrt{5})^{x}[/tex]

[tex]f(-7)=-343-147 -14-8[/tex]

Reading from top to bottom. Answers are as follows:

1. 7(2)^t

2. 3000(0.93)^t

3. 300(1.015)^t

4. 300(0.985)^t

Answer with explanation:

We know that the exponential function is given by:

             [tex]f(x)=ab^x[/tex]

where a is the initial amount.

and b is the change in the amount and is given by:

[tex]b=1+r[/tex] if the function is increasing by a rate of r

and [tex]b=1-r[/tex] if the function is decreasing by a rate of r.

a)

The initial amount of fish in the trout are: 7

i.e. a=7

Also, the population doubles every year.

This means that that b=2

Hence, the population after t years is given by the function P(t) as:

[tex]P(t)=7(2)^t[/tex]

b)

The original amount of the machine is: $ 3,000

i.e. a=3,000

Also, the value of machine decreases by a rate of 7%

i.e.

[tex]r=7\%\\\\i.e.\\\\r=0.07[/tex]

Hence, we have:

[tex]b=1-r\\\\i.e\\\\b=1-0.07\\\\i.e.\\\\b=0.93[/tex]

Hence, the function which represent the price of the machine after t years i.e. P(t) is given by:

[tex]P(t)=3000(0.93)^t[/tex]

c)

The initial population of colony of ants i.e. a=300.

The number of ants increases at a rate of 1.5% every month.

i.e. [tex]r=1.5%\\\\i.e.\\\\r=0.015[/tex]

i.e.

[tex]b=1+r\\\\i.e.\\\\b=1+0.015\\\\i.e.\\\\b=1.015[/tex]

Hence, the function P(t) which represents the population of ants after t months is given by:

[tex]P(t)=300(1.015)^t[/tex]

d)

The initial infected cells i.e. a=300

The infected cells are decaying at a rate of 1.5% per minute.

i.e.

[tex]r=1.5%\\\\i.e.\\\\r=0.015[/tex]

Since, there is a decay hence,

[tex]b=1-r\\\\i.e.\\\\b=1-0.015\\\\i.e.\\\\b=0.985[/tex]

Hence, the function P(t) which represents the number of infected cells after t minutes is given by:

[tex]P(t)=300(0.985)^t[/tex]

In 2009, there were 1570 bears in a wildlife refuge. In 2010, the population had increased to
approximately 1884 bears. If this trend continues and the bear population is increasing exponentially,
how many bears will there be in 2018?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]8,101\ bears[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In this problem we have a exponential function of the form

[tex]y=a(b)^{x}[/tex]

where

x ----> is the number of years since 2009

y ----> is the population of bears

a ----> is the initial value

b ---> is the base

step 1

Find the value of a

For x=0 (year 2009)

y=1,570 bears

substitute

[tex]1.570=a(b)^{0}[/tex]

[tex]a=1.570\ bears[/tex]

so

[tex]y=1.570(b)^{x}[/tex]

step 2

Find the value of b

For x=1 (year 2010)

y=1,884 bears

substitute

[tex]1,884=1.570(b)^{1}[/tex]

[tex]b=1,884/1.570[/tex]

[tex]b=1.2[/tex]

The exponential function is equal to

[tex]y=1.570(1.2)^{x}[/tex]

step 3

How many bears will there be in 2018?

2018-2009=9 years

so

For x=9 years

substitute in the equation

[tex]y=1.570(1.2)^{9}[/tex]

[tex]y=8,101\ bears[/tex]

(this is my sister on my acc I'm letting her) True or False? When you use a pulley you use less force to pull up a load.Explain your thinking below. btw im in grade four so no fancy words.​

Answers

Answer:

True depending on what you are comparing it to.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pulley would help lighten the load that you are trying to pull up, which may make it easier for you to get the load to your designated area. The more complicated it is, usually the more 'lighter' it becomes, or the less force you have to exert.

For example, you will have to give a 100% energy in trying to life a heavy box. However, if you use a simple pulley (only one), you may only have to exert 75% more energy, for the weight is significantly lower.

what is the Distance between (-4, -8) and (10, -8)??

Answers

Answer:

The distance between both points would be 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y coordinate or -8 stays the same for both points on a coordinate grid. However the x coordinate changes from -4 to 10, which is 14 places away on a coordinate grid. Therefore the distance between these two points is 14.

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance equation:

d² = (x₂ − x₁)² + (y₂ − y₁)²

d² = (10 − -4)² + (-8 − -8)²

d² = 14² + 0²

d = 14

Answers

Answer:

A.

Only function g is even

Answer:

Option: A is the correct answer.

  A.   Only function g is even.

Step-by-step explanation:We know that the graph of a even function is such that both the ends of a graph points in the same direction and the graph of a odd function is such that both the ends of the graph points in the opposite direction.Also, the graph of the even function is symmetric about the y-axis .whereas the graph of the odd function is symmetric about the origin i.e. it has rotational symmetry about the origin.

Here by looking at the graph we observe that the graph of function g satisfies the condition of even function.

( whereas the graph of function f is not symmetric about the y-axis and hence function f is not even )

     Hence,  the function g is an even function.

Wayne needs to drive 470 miles to reach Milwaukee. Suppose he drives at a constant speed of 50 miles per hour. Which function represents Wayne’s distance in miles from Milwaukee in terms of the number of hours he drives?
A.
y = 420x
B.
y = 470 + 50x
C.
y = 50 − 470x
D.
y = 50 + 470x
E.
y = 470 − 50x

Answers

Let the number of hours driven equal x.

You would multiply the number of hours by his speed, so you would have 50x

You would then want to subtract that from the total miles to see how many more miles he needs to drive.

The answer would be E. y = 470 - 50x
