Answer:

Option 1 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation $(x + 5)^2 + 4(x + 5) + 12 = 0$

we have to choose the best statement describes the above equation.

$(x + 5)^2 + 4(x + 5) + 12 = 0$ → (1)

As, the highest degree of its monomials i.e individual terms with non-zero coefficients is 2.

⇒ Degree of above equation is 2.

hence, the given equation is quadratic equation.

The general form of quadratic equation is

$ax^2+bx+c$

In variable u: $u^2+u+c=0$ → (2)

Now, compare equation (1) with (2), we say that

The equation is quadratic in form because it can be rewritten as a quadratic equation with u substitution u = (x + 5).

Option 1 is correct.

Answer:

$Blue = \frac{8}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Yellow = 1ft^2$

$Blue = 8z^{-1$

Required

Evaluate Blue when z = 9

To do this, we simply substitute 9 for z in $Blue = 8z^{-1$

$Blue = 8 * 9^{-1$

Convert indices to fraction

$Blue = 8 * \frac{1}{9}$

$Blue = \frac{8}{9}$

<em>Hence, the blue section has an area of </em> $\frac{8}{9}ft^2$ <em></em>

liberstina [14]

Answer:

<h2><u>The amount paid to an employee was </u><u>162</u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u>The expression 12h + 30w Identifies the amount paid to an employee.</u></h2><h2><u>Let h represent hours and let w represent the total amount of g-wagons sold. </u></h2><h2><u>Since the question explains that an employee works 6 hours and sells 3 wagons, put h as h = 6 and w as w = 3. We would end up getting this equation. 12h + 30w = 12(6) + 30(3).</u></h2><h2><u>Now all you need to do is solve it.</u></h2><h2><u>left side = 72</u></h2><h2><u>right side = 90</u></h2><h2><u>72 + 90 =</u><u> 162</u></h2>

What is the quadratic formula?

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

I guess u want to know the quadratic function and its formula is, AX*2 + BX + C. Otherwhise you want to know how to get 0 and get the Xm if you want to know how to solve a quadratic. That formula is, (-B +/- $\sqrt{x}$ (B*2 - 4AC) ) . 1/2 (where A, B and C are the number at the original function).

a mower uses 5/16 gallon of gas to mow the back yard. the side yard is only 2/3 the size of the backyard. How much gas will be n

Trava [24]

Answer:

(5/24) gallons of gas to mow the side yard

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily solve this proble by applying a rule of three

5/16 gallons of gas --------------------------------- for 1 backyard

x gallons of gas ------------------------------------- 2/3 backyard

x = ((2/3)/1)*(5/16) gallons of gas

x = ((2/3))*(5/16) gallons of gas

x = ((10/48) gallons of gas

x = (5/24) gallons of gas

When you draw a multi-phase sample ____. Group of answer choices

notsponge [240]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": You use information from a first sample for collecting a subsequent subsample for further study.

Explanation:

Multi-phase sampling is a strategy by which a large number of data under study is taken, then a subsample of that pool is taken, and after that, another smaller subsample is taken in an attempt to count with samples that best might represent the whole population. Usually, the process takes collecting two different samples, but it can be applied as many times as necessary.
