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

Mathematics
1 answer:
Serggg [28]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = (5 + i sqrt(15))/4 or x = (5 - i sqrt(15))/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

2 x^2 - 5 x + 5 = 0

Hint: | Using the quadratic formula, solve for x.

x = (5 ± sqrt((-5)^2 - 4×2×5))/(2×2) = (5 ± sqrt(25 - 40))/4 = (5 ± sqrt(-15))/4:

x = (5 + sqrt(-15))/4 or x = (5 - sqrt(-15))/4

Hint: | Express sqrt(-15) in terms of i.

sqrt(-15) = sqrt(-1) sqrt(15) = i sqrt(15):

Answer: x = (5 + i sqrt(15))/4 or x = (5 - i sqrt(15))/4

B) The time, T (in minutes) taken for a stadium to empty varies directly as the number of spectators, S. And inversely as the nu
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

18 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the time (T) varies directly as the number of spectators (S) and varies inversely as number of open exits (E).

Hence:

T ∝ S; T ∝ 1 / E

Let k be the constant of proportionality. This gives:

T = kS / E

when T = 12 minutes, S = 20000, E = 20. Hence:

12 = k(20000) / 20

20000k = 240

k = 12 / 1000

This gives:

T = \frac{12}{1000}(\frac{S}{E} )

When  S = 36000, E = 24, we are to calculate the time (T):

T=\frac{12}{1000} (\frac{36000}{24} )=18\\

T = 18 minutes

Show how to solve it step by step <br><br> tan(x)cot(x)=1
nika2105 [10]

There are two ways to confirm the identity.

Method 1

\tan(x)\cot(x) = 1\\\\\tan(x)\frac{1}{\tan(x)} = 1\\\\\frac{\tan(x)}{\tan(x)} = 1\\\\1 = 1 \ \ \checkmark\\\\

--------------------------------------------

Method 2

\tan(x)\cot(x) = 1\\\\\left(\frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}\right)\left(\frac{\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}\right) = 1\\\\\frac{\sin(x)\cos(x)}{\cos(x)\sin(x)} = 1\\\\\frac{\sin(x)}{\sin(x)} = 1\\\\1 = 1 \ \ \checkmark\\\\

Find the equation of the line that passes through (4,4) and is parallel to
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

y = - 3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

3x + y + 2 = 0 ( subtract 3x + 2 from both sides )

y = - 3x - 2 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (3, - 4) into the partial equation

- 4 = - 9 + c ⇒ c = - 4 + 9 = 5

y = - 3x + 5 ← equation of line in form y = mx + c
