Answer:

x=-5\text{ or }x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation x^2+3x-10=0. We are asked to find the solutions of our given equation.

We will use splitting the middle term method to solve quadratic equation.

We will split middle term of our given equation into parts such that whose product is -10 and whose sum is 3.

We know that such two numbers are 5\text{ and }-2.

x^2+5x-2x-10=0

(x^2+5x)+(-2x-10)=0

x(x+5)-2(x+5)=0

(x+5)(x-2)=0

Using zero product property, we will get:

(x+5)=0\text{ or }(x-2)=0

x+5=0\text{ or }x-2=0

x=-5\text{ or }x=2

Therefore, the solutions for our given equation are x=-5\text{ or }x=2.

A test is worth 100 points. The test is made up of 40 items. Each item is worth either 2 points or 3 points. Which matrix equati
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Total number of points in the test = 100

Total number of items in the test = 40

Let number of items of 2 points be x and number of items of 3 points be y.

Now, using the given information the situation can be represented by using the following equations :

⇒ x + y = 40 .........(1)

⇒ 2x + 3y = 100 .........(2)

The matrix equation is :

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 1\\ 2& 3\end{bmatrix}\cdot \begin{bmatrix}x\\ y\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}40\\ 100\end{bmatrix}

By solving the equation (1) and equation (2), we get :

Solution : x = 20 and y = 20

olasank [31]

Answer:

Conjecture :  2xy / ( x + y ) ≤  √xy

Step-by-step explanation:

Harmonic mean of  x and y = 2xy/( x + y )

<u>Formulate a conjecture about their relative sizes </u>

we will achieve this by computing harmonic and geometric means

Geometric mean = √xy

harmonic mean = 2xy/( x + y )

Conjecture :  2xy / ( x + y ) ≤  √xy

attached below is the proof
