These are two questions and two answers:
Question 1:
<span>A
quadratic equation is shown below: 3x^2 − 15x + 20 = 0 Part A: Describe
the solution(s) to the equation by just determining the radicand. Show
your work.
Answer: </span><span>The negative value of the radicand means that the equation does not have real solutions.
Explanation:
1) With radicand the statement means the disciminant of the quadratic function.
2) The discriminant is: b² - 4ac, where a, b, and c are the coefficients of the quadratic equation: ax² + bx + c
3) Then, for 3x² - 15x + 20, a = 3, b = - 15, and c = 20
and the discriminant (radicand) is: (-15)² - 4(3)(20) = 225 - 240 = - 15.
4) The negative value of the radicand means that the equation does not have real solutions.
Question 2:
Part B: Solve 3x^2 + 5x − 8 = 0 by using an appropriate
method. Show the steps of your work, and explain why you chose the
method used.
Answer: </span> two solutions x = 1 and x = - 8/3x
Explanation:
1) I choose factoring (you may use the quadratic formula if you prefer)
2) Factoring
Given: 3x² + 5x − 8 = 0
Make 5x = 8x - 3x: 3x² + 8x - 3x - 8 = 0
Group: (3x² - 3x) + (8x - 8) = 0
Common factors for each group: 3x(x -1) + 8(x - 1) = 0
Coomon factor x - 1: (x - 1) (3x + 8) = 0
The two solutions are for each factor equal to zero:
x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1
3x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = -8/3
Those are the two solutions. x = 1 and x = - 8/3
Answer:
The sum of all positive integers less than 100, which are not divisible by 3 is 3267.
Step-by-step explanation:
The all positive integers less than 100 has sum, given by
S₁ = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ......... + 99
⇒ S₁ = 
Now, the sum of all positive integers less than 100 which are divisible by 3 is
S₂ = 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15 + ........ + 99
⇒ S₂ = 3(1 + 2 + 3 + ........ + 33)
⇒ S₂ = 
Therefore, the sum of all positive integers less than 100, which are not divisible by 3 is = S₁ - S₂ = 4950 - 1683 = 3267. (Answer)
Note : The sum of n natural numbers S is given by
S = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ....... + n =

A.
- There are no critical points because the graph is neither continuous nor smooth. There is a discontinuity at x = 2.
B.
- The absolute maximum is f(lim⇒-2_-) = infinity. The absolute minimum is f(lim⇒-2_+) = -infinity. This applies to the interval [-10, 7].
C.
- The absolute maximum is f(5) = 26/7 or 3.714. The absolute mimimum is f(0) = 1.75. This applies to the interval [0, 5]. Proof: graph f(x) at [0, 5] on a graph or graphing calculator.
