Answer 1

Quadratic formula – is the method that is used most often for solving a quadratic equation. If you are using factoring or the quadratic formula, make sure that the equation is in standard form.

There are three basic methods for solving quadratic equations: factoring, using the quadratic formula, and completing the square.

B One-fourth as many people ate a vegetarian sandwich as ate a salad. C There were 56 more people who ate a turkey sandwich than ate a chicken sandwich. с D There were 28 more people who ate a salad than ate a chicken sandwich.​

Answers

Using proportions, it is found that the correct statement is given by:

C There were 56 more people who ate a turkey sandwich than ate a chicken sandwich.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.

In this problem, one third out of 840 people ate Turkey Sandwich, hence the number is given by:

nT = 840/3 = 280.

One sixth ate Vegetarian Sandwich, hence the number is given by:

nV = 840/6 = 140.

4/15 ate Chicken Sandwich, hence the number is given by:

nC = 4 x 840/15 = 224.

7/30 ate Salad, hence the number is given by:

nS = 7 x 840/30 = 196.

Thus, option C is correct.

Which is a solution to (x − 2)(x + 10) = 13

Answers

times the x’a together and x*10 then 2*x and 2*10
Answers:  x = -11 and x = 3

======================================================

Explanation:

There are at least three ways to solve this.

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

Method 1:

We could graph y = (x-2)(x+10) using a tool like Desmos. Graph y = 13 as well which is a horizontal line.

Check out the screenshot shown below.

The parabola in red and the horizontal line in blue intersect at the locations (-11, 13) and (3, 13)

We only focus on the x coordinates of the intersection points.

Therefore, the two solutions are x = -11 and x = 3

The order of the solutions doesn't matter.

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

Method 2:

Expand things out and get everything to one side

(x-2)(x+10) = 13

x^2 + 10x - 2x - 20 = 13

x^2 + 8x - 20 - 13 = 0

x^2 + 8x - 33 = 0

From here we can use the quadratic formula

[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-8\pm\sqrt{(8)^2-4(1)(-33)}}{2(1)}\\\\x = \frac{-8\pm\sqrt{64+132}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-8\pm\sqrt{196}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-8\pm14}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-8+14}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-8-14}{2}\\\\x = \frac{6}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-22}{2}\\\\x = 3 \ \text{ or } \ x = -11\\\\[/tex]

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

Method 3:

Instead of using the quadratic formula, we could factor.

To factor x^2+8x-33, we need to find two numbers that

Multiply to -33Add to 8

Through trial and error, you should get 11 and -3

11 times -3 = -3311 plus -3 = 8

So,

x^2+8x-33 = 0

(x+11)(x-3) = 0

x+11 = 0 or x-3 = 0

x = -11 or x = 3

A conservationist determines that a particular beach is eroding at a rate of 1.1% each year. when writing an explicit formula to represent the amount of beach remaining each year, which value should she use as the common ratio? 0.011 0.089 0.989 1.011

Answers

Using exponential function concepts, it is found that the common ratio would be given by 0.989.

What is an exponential function?

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

In which:

A(0) is the initial value.r is the decay rate, as a decimal.1 - r, also as a decimal, is the common ratio.

In this problem, the amount decays 1.1% a year, hence:

r = 0.011.1 - r = 1 - 0.011 = 0.989.

The common ratio would be given by 0.989.

What is a cyclic Quadrilateral?

A cyclic quadrilateral is a quadrilateral circumscribed by a circle in which all the vertices of the quadrilateral touch the circle.

Analysis:

Join line Qx and Sx together.

2∠QRS = reflex ∠QxS ( twice angle at the circumference is that at center)

2∠STQ = ∠QxS( twice angle at circumference is that at the center)

Also ∠QXS + reflex ∠QXS = 360(angle at a point)

2∠QRS + 2∠STQ = 360

2(∠QRS + ∠STQ) = 360

∠QRS + ∠STQ = 180°

In conclusion, ∠QRS + ∠STQ = 180°

From given graph

f(-3)= (-3)

f(1)=1

Answer:

f(-3) = -3

f(1) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) means the "function of x".

Therefore, the number in the bracket after the letter f is the value of x.

f(-3) means find the value of the function (y-value) when x = -3

f(1) means find the value of the function (y-value) when x = 1

To find f(-3), find x = -3 on the x-axis.  

Now trace vertically until you meet the line. Read the value of y at this point.

⇒ f(-3) = -3

To find f(1), find x = 1 on the x-axis.  

Now trace vertically until you meet the line. Read the value of y at this point.

⇒ f(1) = 1

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

From the table, we have that:

The intercept is the initial balance of 100.The slope is the rate of change of 35.

Hence the balance after n weeks is given by:

B(n) = 100 + 35n.

You will have $800 when B(n) = 800, hence the equation is:

35n + 100 = 800.

OD.
Each equation represents a line that increases from left to right.

Answers

Answer:

A. Yes they do. Both equations have their opposing set of y-intercept. Where equation one has a y-intercept of +7, and equation two, +7.

B. No they do not. Equation one has a slope of +3, while equation 2 has a slope of -4.

C. Yes they do. Equation one represents that of a positive increasing graph, while equation two the opposite, decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the slope formula to identify and graph each equation simply by using y = mx + b. Where y is the the y coordinate, x is the x coordinate, m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept. With this you can start plotting by marking the y-intercept by putting the x as zero and seeing what number you get. In this case, 3x0-7 = -7. Meaning that would be the y-intercept. For the slope, depending on what the x coordinate is, that's how much the graph will increase or decrease whenever the x coordinate changes. Say the x coordinate is 1, so 3x1-7 = 3-7 = -4. Meaning your coordinate would be (1, -4) where you can keep doing this formula on and on to find the y coordinate for what x coordinate you want to find, or make it easier to graph with a ruler on paper once you have enough points.
