The factors of the quadratic equation is (x + 1) and (x - 6)

Given,

The quadratic equation; -2x² + 10x + 12

We have to find the factors of this equation using quadratic formula;-

Quadratic formula;- \frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}

Here,

a = -2, b = 10 and c = 12

Now,

\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} = \frac{-10(+-)\sqrt{10^{2} -4 . -2. 12} }{2.-2} = \frac{-10(+-)\sqrt{100 +96} }{-4} = (-10±14) ÷ -4

Solve for,

- 10 + 14 / -4 = -4/4 = -1

That is, (x + 1)

Solve for,

- 10 - 14 / -4 = -24/-4 = 6

That is,  (x - 6)

Therefore, the factors for the given quadratic equation is (x + 1) and (x - 6)

Check all of the ordered pairs that satisfy the equation below.
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Hey there!

y=3/4x shows that the y-value is always 3/4 of the x-value.

Thus, if x is 4, y is 3. It always fits the 4:3 ratio.

The ordered pairs that satisfy this equation are: 28:21 and 16:12

Let me know if this helps :)

Delicious77 [7]

Answer: There are 667 owls for every 1000 squirrels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of owls = 30

Number of squirrels = 45

If the number of owls and squirrels will continue to increase.

If there are 1000 squirrels, then the number of owls would be

\dfrac{30}{45}=\dfrac{x}{1000}\\\\x=\dfrac{30\times 1000}{45}\\\\x=666.67\\\\x\approx 667

Hence, there are 667 owls for every 1000 squirrels.

I need help on listing the four points that have a distance of 8 from B, thank you!
dolphi86 [110]

Answers:

  • (12, 3)
  • (-4, 3)
  • (4, 11)
  • (4, -5)

A diagram is shown below.

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

Explanation:

First we locate point B at (4,3). The '4' in the x position means we've gone 4 units to the right of the origin, and the 3 in the y coordinate means we've gone 3 units up.

Now we need to find four points that are 8 units away from this central location. We'll ignore point A.

What we can do is add 8 to the x coordinate of point B to get x+8 = 4+8 = 12. Keeping the y coordinate the same, the point (12, 3) is exactly 8 units away from (4,3). Think of drawing a number line through those two points. Then we can note there are 8 spaces between (4,3) and (12,3). Or we can say "there are 8 spaces between 4 and 12" since that '3' doesn't really play much of a role in this case.

So (12,3) is one answer.

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

Move back to point B(4,3)

Instead of adding 8 to the x coordinate, let's subtract 8 from it

x-8 = 4-8 = -4

Again the y coordinate is kept the same.

The point (-4, 3) is 8 units away from (4,3). The number line distance from -4 to 4 is 8 units.

So (-4,3) is another answer.

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

Move back to point B

From this starting point, we can move 8 units up. Doing this means we add 8 to the y coordinate, while the x coordinate is kept intact.

(4,3) turns into (4,11) after doing so.

(4,11) is another answer.

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

Move back to point B

From this point, we can move down 8 units to arrive at (4,-5). note how y-8 = 3-8 = -5. The x coordinate is kept the same.

(4,-5) is another answer.

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

The four points we found were:

  • (12, 3)
  • (-4, 3)
  • (4, 11)
  • (4, -5)

which are four possible answers

Those points are found by going 8 units right, 8 units left, 8 units up and 8 units down in that order. Each time we started at point B as our center of operation. The use of the word "center" is done because we can form a circle of radius 8, and the center of the circle is at B(4,3). Any point on the circle's edge is exactly 8 units away from the center point B.

Refer to the diagram below. The four answers are the red points P,Q,R,S. The point T is another point that could be an answer, but it's not as easy to find compared to the four other points.
