Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions to the quadratic equation below x^2-6x-5=0

Sonja [21]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x=3-\sqrt{14}\ \vee\ x=3+\sqrt{14}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2-6x-5=0\qquad\text{add 5 to both sides}\\\\x^2-6x=5\\\\x^2-2(x)(3)=5\qquad\text{add}\ 3^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x^2-2(x)(3)+3^2=5+3^2\qquad\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\(x-3)^2=5+9\\\\(x-3)^2=14\to x-3=\pm\sqrt{14}\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\x=3-\sqrt{14}\ \vee\ x=3+\sqrt{14}$

5 times marys age is the same as 28 less than 7 times her age. Find her age

Gnom [1K]

setup a simple algebraic equation and solve.

5x = 7x-28

-5x -5x

0=2x-28

+28 +28

28=2x

Now divide both sides by 2 and you get that she is 14

50 points! I understand A. and B. but I would really appreciate help with C.

Answer:

$51.72\text{ cells per hour}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So, the function, P(t), represents the number of cells after t hours.

This means that the derivative, P'(t), represents the instantaneous rate of change (in cells per hour) at a certain point t.

C)

So, we are given that the quadratic curve of the trend is the function:

$P(t)=6.10t^2-9.28t+16.43$

To find the <em>instanteous</em> rate of growth at t=5 hours, we must first differentiate the function. So, differentiate with respect to t:

$\frac{d}{dt}[P(t)]=\frac{d}{dt}[6.10t^2-9.28t+16.43]$

Expand:

$P'(t)=\frac{d}{dt}[6.10t^2]+\frac{d}{dt}[-9.28t]+\frac{d}{dt}[16.43]$

Move the constant to the front using the constant multiple rule. The derivative of a constant is 0. So:

$P'(t)=6.10\frac{d}{dt}[t^2]-9.28\frac{d}{dt}[t]$

Differentiate. Use the power rule:

$P'(t)=6.10(2t)-9.28(1)$

Simplify:

$P'(t)=12.20t-9.28$

So, to find the instantaneous rate of growth at t=5, substitute 5 into our differentiated function:

$P'(5)=12.20(5)-9.28$

Multiply:

$P'(5)=61-9.28$

Subtract:

$P'(5)=51.72$

This tells us that at <em>exactly</em> t=5, the rate of growth is 51.72 cells per hour.

And we're done!
