Answer:

\{\frac{4}{9} \}

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we are given a parabola by definition:

f(x) = 9x^2 + 4x + k \\ a = 9, b = 4, c = k;

Since a > 0, our parabola has an upward opening.

Should we think about it graphically, it will be no wonder that we should pay our attention to the points of the parabola intersecting the abscissa axis. In other words, we need our vertex to intersect the x axis only once per se.
The vertex:

V_{x} = \frac{-b}{2a} = \frac{-4}{2 * 9} = - \frac{2}{9} \\ V_{y} = 9V_{x}^2 + 4V_{x} + k = 9(- \frac{2}{9})^2 + 4(- \frac{2}{9}) + k = 9 * \frac{4}{9^2} - \frac{8}{9} + k = \frac{4}{9} - \frac{8}{9} + k = - \frac{4}{9} + k

As a result, our V_{y} is parametric. k = \frac{4}{9} suits us because V_{y} = - \frac{4}{9} + \frac{4}{9} = 0. If k > \frac{4}{9}, we do not have any roots at all. We have two roots if k < \frac{4}{9}.

Hello,

Answer:

for k = 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 9 ; b = 4 ; c = k

we search Δ = 0 (because 1 real root)

Δ = b² - 4ac = 4² - 4 × 9 × k = 16 - 36k

Δ = 0 ⇔  16 - 36k = 0 ⇔ 36k = 16 ⇔ k = 16/36 = (4 × 4)/(4 × 9) = 4/9

⇒ k = 4/9

Melissa wants to purchase a digital camera.The listed price of the camera is $195.99.The camera is no sale for 10% off and Melis
lianna [129]

Answer:

The 10% off sale will save Melissa <u>$10.49</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The listed price of the camera is $195.99.

The camera is no sale for 10% off and Melissa has a coupon for 5% off the sales tax is 7%.

Now, to find the money Melissa will save of the 10% off sale.

So, to get the price of camera of the 5% off sale:

(195.99-5\%\ of\ 195.99)

=(195.99-\frac{5}{100}\times 195.99)

=(195.99-9.80)

=186.19

Now, adding the sales tax:

186.19+7\%\ of\ 186.19

=186.19+\frac{7}{100} \times 186.19

=186.19+13.03

=199.22

Thus, the price is $199.22.

Now, to get the price of 10% off sale:

195.99-10\%\ of\ 195.99

=195.99-\frac{10}{100} \times 195.99

=176.39

So, adding sales tax:

176.39+7\%\ of\ 176.39

=176.39+\frac{7}{100} \times 176.39

=188.73

Hence, the price is $188.73.

Now, to get the money 10% off sale will save Melissa:

199.22-188.73

=10.49

Therefore, the 10% off sale will save Melissa $10.49.
