If y varies directly with x and y=2 when x=15. Find x when y=8.

2 answers:

8 0

Since the two numbers vary directly, if Y is quadrupled, X will do the same. 2 times 4 is 8, 15 times 4 is 60.

X = 60.

Hope that helps!! :)

$2x^2+ 9x=-5 \\ \\2x^2 + 9x+5 =0 \\\\a=2, \ \ b=9 , \ \ c=5 \\\\\Delta =b^2-4ac = 9^2 -4\cdot 2\cdot 5 = 81-40=41 \\ \\x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}=\frac{-9-\sqrt{41}}{2\cdot 2 }=\frac{-9-\sqrt{41}}{ 4 }\\\\ x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}=\frac{-9+\sqrt{41}}{2\cdot 2 }=\frac{-9+\sqrt{41}}{4 }$

78% of those surveyed at the fair bought popcorn statistic or parameter

vlada-n [284]

Step-by-step explanation:

78% of those surveyed bought popcorn statistic or parameter. This means that significantly more than half of the given population bought popcorn statistic or parameter.

If the population is, say ten thousand, then 78% of 10000 is

10000 × 78/100 = 7800.

Which is more than half the whole population.

Find the range of values of x for which 2x2 – 5x + 2 > 0

Alchen [17]

Answer:

x < 1/2 and x>2

Step-by-step explanation:

first solve the eqn,

2x2 -5x +2 = 2x2 -4x -x +2 = 2x(x-2) - 1(x-2) = (2x-1)(x-2)

since the questions asks for >,

x < 1/2 and x>2

if the question had asked for <,

1/2<x<2
