225/25= 9

It would take Derek 9 minutes to read the 225-word article.

I hope this helps!

7. x=3 is the midpoint between the roots. The other root is x = 2*3 -(-5) = 11.

8a) f(x) = (x +3)^2 -49. The vertex is (-3, -49). The roots are -10, 4.

8b) y = (x+4)^2 -1. The vertex is (-4, -1). The roots are -5, -3.

8c) f(x) = 2(x +3)^2 -34. The vertex is (-3, -34). The roots are -3±√17.

Factorise 2x^2 - 3x -2 < 0

Galina-37 [17]

Step 1: Factor $2 x^{2} - 3x -2$
1. <span> Multiply 2 by -2, which is -4.</span>
2. <span>Ask: Which two numbers add up to -3 and multiply to -4?
</span>3. <span>Answer: 1 and -4
</span>4. Rewrite $-3x$ as the sum of $x$ and $-4x$

$2 x^{2} +x-4x-2\ \textless \ 0$

Step 2: <span>Factor out common terms in the first two terms, then in the last two terms.

</span> $x(2x+1)-2(2x+1)\ \textless \ 0$
<span>
Step 3: </span>Factor out the common term $2x+1$

$(2x+1)(x-2)\ \textless \ 0$

Step 4: Solve for $x$

1. Ask: When will $(2x+1)(x-2)$ equal zero?
2. Answer: When $2x + 1 = 0$ or $x-2=0$
3. <span>Solve each of the 2 equations above:

</span> $x=- \frac{1}{2} ,2$
<span>
Step 5: </span>From the values of $x$ <span>above, we have these 3 intervals to test.
x = < -1/2
-1/2 < x < 2
x > 2

Step 6: P</span><span>ick a test point for each interval

</span>For the interval $x\ \textless \ - \frac{1}{2} 
$
Lets pick $x=-1.$ Then, $2(-1) ^{2} -3 * -1 -2 \ \textless \ 0$
After simplifying, we get $3\ \textless \ 0$ , Which is false.
Drop this interval.
<span>
For this interval $- \frac{1}{2} \ \textless \ x\ \textless \ 2$
Lets pick $x=0$ . Then, $2* 0^{2} - 3 * 0-2\ \textless \ 0$ . After simplifying, we get $-2\ \textless \ 0,$ which is true. Keep this <span>interval.

For the interval </span> $x\ \textgreater \ 2$

Lets pick $x = 3.$ Then, $2 * 3 ^{2} -3*3-2\ \textless \ 0.$ After simplifying, we get $7\ \textless \ 0$ , Which is false. Drop this interval.

.Step 7: Therefore,
$- \frac{1}{2} \ \textless \ x\ \textless \ 2$

Done! :)</span>

Inscribed angles math lib <br> Need help with 9 and 10 thank you!!

telo118 [61]

Answer:

54° and 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary, sum to 180°

(9)

19x - 26 + 7x - 2 = 180

26x - 28 = 180 ( add 28 to both sides )

26x = 208 ( divide both sides by 26 )

x = 8

Then

∠ EFG = 7x - 2 = 7(8) - 2 = 56 - 2 = 54°

(10)

21x - 33 + 14x + 3 = 180

35x - 30 = 180 ( add 30 to both sides )

35x = 210 ( divide both sides by 35 )

x = 6

Then

∠ YVW = 14x + 3 = 14(6) + 3 = 84 + 3 = 87°

The inscribed angle YVW is half the measure of its intercepted arc YW, so

arc YW = 2 × 87° = 174°, then

arc XW = 174° - 64° = 110°

Jackson's rectangular orchard is 6 km long and 4 km wide. What is the area of Jackson's orchard?

Levart [38]

For a rectangle area, use base x height, or length x width.

6 km long x 4 km wide = 24 km

The area of Jackson's orchard is 24 km

hope this helps
