A negative number divided by positive is a negative quotient and vice versa.
So
5.7 / -2.2
-0.01 / 0.05
Are the ones with negative quotients
Answer: -7twice
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a question on root of quadratic equation. The interpretation of the question
x² 14x + 49 is
x² + 14x + 49 = 0.meaning that we are to find two possible values for x that will make the expression equal 0.
We can use any of the methods earlier taught. For the purpose of this class, I am using factorization methods
x² + 14x + 49 = 0
Now, find the product of the first and the last terms, is
x² × 49 = 49ײ
Now find two terms such that their productbis 49x² and their sum equals 14x, the one in the middle.
We have several factors of 49x² but only one will give sum of 14x. Because of the time, I will only go straight to the required factors .
49x² = 7x × 7x and the sum gives 14x the middle terms..
Now we now replace the middle one by the factors and then factorize by grouping.
x² + 14x + 49 = 0
x² + 7x + 7x + 49 = 0
x(x + 7) + 7(x + 7) = 0
(x + 7)(x + 7). = 0
Now to find this value of x,
x + 7 = 0
x. = -7twice.
The root of the equation = -7twice.
Answer:
a. 12 feet b. 12 feet 0.5 inches c. 8.33 %
Step-by-step explanation:
a. How far out horizontally on the ground will it protrude from the building?
Since the rise to run ratio is 1:12 and the building is 12 inches off the ground, let x be the horizontal distance the ramp protrudes.
So, by ratios rise/run = 1/12 = 12/x
1/12 = 12/x
x = 12 × 12
x = 144 inches
Since 12 inches = 1 foot, 144 inches = 144 × 1 inch = 144 × 1 foot/12 inches = 12 feet
b. How long should the ramp be?
The length of the ramp, L is gotten from Pythagoras' theorem since the ramp is a right-angled triangle with sides 12 inches and 144 inches respectively.
So, L = √(12² + 144²)
= √[12² + (12² × 12²)]
= 12√(1 + 144)
= 12√145
= 12 × 12.042
= 144.5 inches
Since 12 inches = 1 foot, 144.5 inches = 144 × 1 inch + 0.5 inches = 144 × 1 foot/12 inches + 0.5 inches = 12 feet 0.5 inches
c. What percent grade is the ramp?
The percentage grade of the ramp = rise/run × 100 %
= 12 inches/144 inches × 100 %
= 1/12 × 100 %
= 0.0833 × 100 %
= 8.33 %
Answer:
There are no simple factors to this expression. You can however solve for x, giving you:
x = -1 ± √(y + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no simple pair of factors to this equation, so we'll have to go through the full process. You can see that by observing that there is no pair of rational numbers that add to make 2 and multiply to make -2. We can however solve for x:
