Solve this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula. x2 + 8x - 5 = 0

1 answer:

7 0

X^2 + 8x - 5 = 0
a = 1, b = 8, c = -5
x = ( - 8 + - sqrt(64 - 4*1*-5))/2
x = ( -8 + - sqrt(64+20))/2
x = ( -8 + - sqrt (84))/2
x = ( - 8 + - 2sqrt21))/2
x = -4 + - sqrt21

Bonnie is making a dipping sauce. She mixes 150 milliliters of soy sauce with 100 milliliters of vinegar. How much soy sauce doe

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Bonnie is mixing 1.50 milliliter of soy sauce with 1 milliliter of vinegar

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Bonnie mixes 150 milliliters of soy sauce with 100 milliliters of vinegar

So, in order to find the amount of soy sauce mixed with one ml of vinegar, we have to divide the amount of soy sauce by vinegar.

So,

$Soy\ sauce\ mixed\ with\ 1\ ml\ of\ vinegar\ =\frac{150}{100}\\ = \frac{3}{2}\\=1.50$

Hence,

Bonnie is mixing 1.50 milliliter of soy sauce with 1 milliliter of vinegar

Determine the quotient, q(x), and remainder, r(x) when

Vinvika [58]

ANSWER

Quotient:

$q(x) = 4 {x}^{2} + 3x + 2$

Remainder:

$r(x) = 3x + 1$

EXPLANATION

The given functions are

$f(x) = 12 {x}^{4} + 21 {x}^{3} + 31 {x}^{2} + 21x + 9$

and

$g(x) = 3 {x}^{2} + 3x + 4$

We want to find the remainder and quotient when f(x) is divided by g(x).

We perform the long division as shown in the attachment.

The quotient is

$q(x) = 4 {x}^{2} + 3x + 2$

The remainder is

$r(x) = 3x + 1$
