This polynomial does not factor so you have to complete the square or use Quadratic formula.
x^2 + 6x + 7 = 0
Using completing the square, subtract 7 from both sides.
x^2 + 6x = -7
divide 6 by 2 = 3, square 3 = 9, add 9 to both sides.
x^2 + 6x + 9 = 2
(x + 3)^2 = 2
Take the sqrt of both sides
x + 3 = + - sqrt 2
subtract 3 from both sides
x = - 3 + - sqrt 2
This is not an answer choice but it is the correct answer. You either typed the choices incorrectly or the equation incorrectly.
Since we already know that the older child is a girl (a 100% chance to be a girl), there must be a 50% chance that the other child is a girl. Therefore, the probability that both children are girls is 50%.
Hope this helps!
Answer:6
Step-by-step explanation:
since it is A half circle it is the hhalf Value of the area of the full circle
For this case we have the following function:
<span>w (x) = - 5 (x-8) (x + 4)
</span><span>Rewriting we have:
</span><span>w (x) = - 5 (x ^ 2 + 4x - 8x - 32)
</span><span>w (x) = - 5x ^ 2 - 20x + 40x + 160
</span><span>w (x) = - 5x ^ 2 + 20x + 160
</span><span>Then, deriving we have:
</span><span>w '(x) = - 10x + 20
</span><span>We equal zero and clear x:
</span><span>0 = -10x + 20
</span><span>10x = 20
</span><span>x = 20/10
</span><span>x = 2 seconds
</span><span>Substituting values:
</span><span>w (2) = - 5 (2-8) (2 + 4)
</span><span>w (2) = - 5 (-6) (6)
</span><span>w (2) = 180 meters
</span>Answer:
The maximum height that the stone will reach is:
w (2) = 180 meters
