f(x)=\quad 2{ x }^{ 2 }+3x+5

Let's called the input 'z'

When we plug 'z' in the function we get ;

f(z)=\quad 2{ z }^{ 2 }+3z+5

And we know that, this is equal to 19, so ;

2{ z }^{ 2 }+3z+5=\quad 19

Let's rearrange the equation.

2{ z }^{ 2 }+3z+5=\quad 19\\ \\ 2{ z }^{ 2 }+3z=\quad 19-5\\ \\ 2{ z }^{ 2 }+3z=\quad 14\\ \\ 2{ z }^{ 2 }+3z-14=\quad 0

So we have a quadratic equation here.

We'll use this formula to solve it :

\frac { -b\pm \sqrt { { b }^{ 2 }-4ac }  }{ 2a }

The formula is used in equation formed like this :

a{ x }^{ 2 }+bx+c=0

In our equation,

a=2 , b=3 and c=-14

Let's plug in the values in the formula to solve,

a=2\quad b=3\quad c=-14\\ \\ \frac { -3\pm \sqrt { 9-(4\cdot 2\cdot -14) }  }{ 4 } \\ \\ \frac { -3\pm \sqrt { 9-(-112) }  }{ 4 } \\ \\ \frac { -3\pm \sqrt { 9+112 }  }{ 4 } \\ \\ \frac { -3\pm \sqrt { 121 }  }{ 4 } \\ \\ \frac { -3\pm 11 }{ 4 }

So,

z=\quad \frac { -3+11 }{ 4 } \quad ,\quad \frac { -3-11 }{ 4 } \\ \\ z=\quad \frac { 8 }{ 4 } \quad ,\quad \frac { -14 }{ 4 } \\ \\ z=\quad 2,\quad -\frac { 7 }{ 2 }

So the input can be both, 2 and -\frac{7}{2}

The area of a rectangle is represented by the function A = n^3 - 6n^2 - 8n + 48.
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

P = 2(n - 6) + 2(n^2 - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remembering that Area = Length times Width, we factor the given function

A = n^3 - 6n^2 - 8n + 48 in the expectation that the resulting factors represent the length and width respectively:

A = n^3 - 6n^2 - 8n + 48 factors as follows:

A = n^2(n - 6) - 8(n - 6), or A = (n - 6)(n^2 - 8)

We can label '(n - 6)' "width" and '(n^2 - 8'

length.

Then the perimeter, P, of the rectangle is P = 2(length) + 2(width). which works out here to:

P = 2(n - 6) + 2(n^2 - 8)

Joey has 8 pairs of socks in his drawers five of them are white what percent of colored socks does he have ​
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer: 62.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

first, set up the proportion. 5/8 = ?/100 in order to solve, divide 100 by 8.

the answer is 12.5. next you multiply it by 5 to get 62.5. fill it in to your equation, and you get 5/8 = 62.5/100. turn the second fraction into a percent, then you have your answer. 62.5%
