Starting with <span>3x^2-7x+12=0, we divide all four terms by 3, resulting in the following factored form:
</span><span>
3(</span><span>x^2-[7/3]x+4)=0.
</span><span>
Since 3 cannot equal 0, we can focus on the following:

x^2 - 7/4 x =-4

This completes the assignment (describe Joe's steps up to this point).



If you wish to go further:

Next, take HALF of the coefficient of x and square your result:

(-7/[4][2])^2 = 49/64

Add this to both sides of </span>x^2 - 7/4 x =-4:    <span>x^2 - 7/4x + 49/64 =-4+49/64

Rewrite the left side as (x-7/8)^2 and the right side as 49/64 - 256/64

Simplify the right side by combining these terms:  -207/64

Then x-7/8 = plus or minus (1/8)sqrt(-207)

Next, x = 7/8 plus or minus (1/8)*i*</span>√207, or

          7 plus or minus i*√207
 x = ----------------------------------
                         8

Consider the spiral given by c(t) = (e2t cos(2t), e2t sin(2t)). Show that the angle between c and c' is constant. c'(t) = _____L
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

angle is 45° which is constant

Step-by-step explanation:

We use formula for two vectors <u>a </u>and <u>b</u>    to calculate angle θ between them by formula

cos θ =  <u>a .</u> <u>b</u>  / magnitude of <u>a </u>  ×  magnitude of <u>b</u>

7. If U= {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16} and<br> A = {6, 10, 14}, what is A'?
Tresset [83]

The compliment of set A that is A' is equal to {2, 4, 8, 12, 16}.

We are given the universal set as:

U = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16}

We are also given that set A is:

A = {6, 10, 14}

We need to find A'

For this, we will subtract set A from the universal set, U.

So, we get that:

A' = U - A

A' = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16} - {6, 10, 14}

Solving the expression, we get that:

A' = {2, 4, 8, 12, 16}

Therefore, we get that, the compliment of set A that is A' is equal to {2, 4, 8, 12, 16}.
