Rewrite the expression  6j^2 - 4j + 12$ in the form $c(j + p)^2 + q$, where $c$, $p$, and $q$ are constants. What is $\frac{q}{p}$

The ratio of \frac{q}{p}  = - 34

How to solve such questions?

Such Questions can be easily solved just by some Algebraic manipulations and simplifications. We just try to make our expression in the form which question asks us. This is the best method to solve such questions as it will definitely lead us to correct answers. One such method is completing the square method.

Completing the square is a method that is used for converting a quadratic expression of the form ax^{2} + bx + c to the vertex form

a(x - h)^{2} + k. The most common application of completing the square is in solving a quadratic equation. This can be done by rearranging the expression obtained after completing the square: a(x + m)^{2} + n, such that the left side is a perfect square trinomial

$6j^2 - 4j +12$

=  $6(j^2 - \frac{2}{3} j )+12$

= $6(j^2 - \frac{2}{3} j  +  \frac{1}{9}  )+\frac{102}{9}                   (Completing Square method)

=6( j- \frac{1}{3} )^{2}  +  \frac{34}{3}

On comparing with the given equation we get

p = - \frac{1}{3}     and q = \frac{34}{3}

∴ \frac{q}{p} = \frac{\frac{34}{3} }{\frac{-1}{3} }

= - 34

For each $n \in \mathbb{N}$, let $A_n = [n] \times [n]$. Define $B = \bigcup_{n \in \mathbb{N}} A_n$. Does $B = \mathbb{N} \time
andre [41]

Answer:

No, it is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

The set C = \mathbb{N} \times \mathbb{N} contains every ordered pair of Natural numbers, while B only contains those pairs in which both values in each entry are the same. Therefore, C is a bigger set than B, but B is not equal to C because for example C contains [1] \times [2] and B doesnt because 1 is not equal to 2.

How many ways can we pick three distinct integers from {1, 2, ..., 15} such that their sum is divisible by 3?
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Clearly from 1 to 15 we can only have the sum 6,9,12 and 15 to be divisible by 3.

Now meaning we have 4! ( 4 factorial) which implies 4x3x2x1= 24 .

We have 24 ways to pick distinct integers that are divisible by 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you need to do is to look for numbers that are divisible by 3. Then you take its factorial
