x^2-3x-4=0\\\\x^2-2x\cdot\frac{3}{2}=4\ \ \ /+(\frac{3}{2})^2\\\\x^2-2x\cdot\frac{3}{2}+(\frac{3}{2})^2=4+(\frac{3}{2})^2\\\\(x-\frac{3}{2})^2=4+\frac{9}{4}\\\\(x-\frac{3}{2})^2=\frac{16}{4}+\frac{9}{4}\\\\(x-\frac{3}{2})^2=\frac{25}{4}\\\\x-\frac{3}{2}=\pm\sqrt\frac{25}{4}

x-\frac{3}{2}=\pm\frac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt4}\\\\x-\frac{3}{2}=\pm\frac{5}{2}\\\\x-\frac{3}{2}=-\frac{5}{2}\ or\ x-\frac{3}{2}=\frac{5}{2}\\\\x=-\frac{5}{2}+\frac{3}{2}\ or\ x=\frac{5}{2}+\frac{3}{2}\\\\x=-\frac{2}{2}\ or\ x=\frac{8}{2}\\\\x=-1\ or\ x=4

Why not simply factor the left side ?

(x - 4) times (x + 1) = 0

This equation is true if either factor is zero.

(x - 4) = 0
<em>x = 4</em>

(x + 1) = 0
<em>x = -1 </em>

The two linear equations in two variable is:

12 x + 3 y = 40

7 x - 4 y = 38

(a) For a system of equations in two Variable

a x + by = c

p x + q y = r

It will have unique solution , when

\frac{a}{p}\neq \frac{b}{q}\neq\frac{c}{r}

As, you can see  that in the two equation Provided above

\frac{12}{7}\neq \frac{3}{-4}\neq \frac{40}{38}

So, we can say the system of equation given here has unique solution.

(b). If point (2.5, -3.4) satisfies both the equations, then it will be solution of the system of equation, otherwise not.

1. 12 x+3 y=40

2. 7 x-4 y=38

Substituting , x= 2.5 , and y= -3.4 in equation (1) and (2),

L.H.S of Equation (1)= 1 2 × 2.5 + 3 × (-3.4)

                             = 30 -10.20

                               = 19.80≠ R.H.S that is 40.

Similarly, L H S of equation (2)= 7 × (2.5) - 4 × (-3.4)

                                                  = 17.5 +13.6

                                                  = 31.1≠R HS that is 38

So, you can Write with 100 % confidence that point (2.5, -3.4) is not a solution of  this system of the equation.

Find the domain and range of 1/t+2
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Domain = (-∞, -2) ∪ (-2, ∞).

Range =  (-∞, 0) ∪ (0, ∞).

Step-by-step explanation:

t can't have the value -2 because that would make  1/(t + 2) = 1/0 which is undefined.

So the domain is All real values of t. except t = -2.

As t approaches infinity or negative infinity  f(t) approaches  zero, and as t approaches -2 from below or above f(t) approaches negative infinity or positive infinity.

Choice 3: Kyra makes $700.00 a week in her job. She did such a great job this week that she is going to get a 15% raise next wee
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

15/100 x 700 = 105

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider 15% as 15 because you always consider a percent out of 100, you can remember by the word 'cent' meaning 100.

You need to FIRST find out what the percentage is OF whenever coming across these types of problems.

And the keyword 'of' means to multiply.

Suppose that X1 and X2 are independent random variables each with a mean μ and a variance σ^2. Compute the mean and variance of
Deffense [45]

Mean:

E[Y] = E[3X₁ + X₂]

E[Y] = 3 E[X₁] + E[X₂]

E[Y] = 3µ + µ

E[Y] = 4µ

Variance:

Var[Y] = Var[3X₁ + X₂]

Var[Y] = 3² Var[X₁] + 2 Covar[X₁, X₂] + 1² Var[X₂]

(the covariance is 0 since X₁ and X₂ are independent)

Var[Y] = 9 Var[X₁] + Var[X₂]

Var[Y] = 9σ² + σ²

Var[Y] = 10σ²

If x+y=10 and x-y =6 what is the answer of x cube - y cube fast​
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

x+y=10 which means that x=10-y

Replace 10-y in the other equation which gives you:

10-y-y=6

10-2y=6

-2y=-4

y=2

Replace 2 in any of the 2 equations same answer for both:

x+y=10

x+2=10

x=8

So,

{x}^{3} - y^{3}

=  {8}^{3}  -  {2}^{3}

=512-8

=504

Hope this helps!
