25 kids in all
2xboys:3x girls

so the equation would be
2x+3x=25
solve,
5x=25
/5 /5
x=5
2x=10
3x=15

10 boys and 15 girls

Location Score Factor (100 points each) Weight A B C Convenience 0.15 89 78 84 Parking facilities 0.20 75 93 98 Display area 0.1

Olin [163]

The maximum composite score from A, B, and C is B.

The computation of the composite score for each location is shown below

The composite score for A is,

= 0.15 × 89 + .20 × 75 + 0.18 × 92 + 0.27 × 92 + 0.10 × 93 + 0.10 × 90

= 88.05

<h3>What is the composite score?</h3>

The Composite score is the average of your four test scores, rounded to the nearest whole number. Fractions less than one-half are rounded down; fractions one-half or more are rounded up.

The composite score for B is

= 0.15 × 78 + .20 × 93 + 0.18 × 90 + 0.27 × 93 + 0.10 × 97 + 0.10 × 96

= 90.91

The composite score for C is

= 0.15 × 84 + .20 × 98 + 0.18 × 87 + 0.27 × 82 + 0.10 × 84 + 0.10 × 95

= 87.90

Therefore for computing the composite score for each location we simply multiply the weight by the A location and in the same manner as A, B, and C

b. The maximum composite score from A, B, and C is B.

Which of the following equations have complex roots?

mestny [16]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Complex roots of quadratic functions occur when the <u>discriminant is negative</u>.

<u>Discriminant</u>

$b^2-4ac\quad\textsf{when}\:\:ax^2+bx+c=0$

Evaluate the discriminant of each of the given equations.

$\textsf{A.} \quad 3x^2+2=0$

$\implies a=3, \quad b=0, \quad c=2$

$\implies b^2-4ac=0^2-4(3)(2)=-24$

As -24 < 0 the equation will have complex roots.

$\textsf{B.} \quad 2x^2+1=7x$

$\implies 2x^2-7x+1=0$

$\implies a=2, \quad b=-7, \quad c=1$

$\implies b^2-4ac= (-7)^2-4(2)(1)=41$

As 41 > 0 the equation does not have complex roots.

$\textsf{C.} \quad 3x^2-1=6x$

$\implies 3x^2-6x-1=0$

$\implies a=3, \quad b=-6, \quad c=-1$

$\implies b^2-4ac=(-6)^2-4(3)(-1)=48$

As 48 > 0 the equation does not have complex roots.

$\textsf{D.} \quad 2x^2-1=5x$

$\implies 2x^2-5x-1=0$

$\implies a=2, \quad b=-5, \quad c=-1$

$\implies b^2-4ac=(-5)^2-4(2)(-1)=33$

As 33 > 0 the equation does not have complex roots.
