Answer: Option 'D' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

x^2-bx-c=0

Both the first and second signs are negative,

Let α and β are the roots of the x^2-bx-c=0,

then, we know that the relationship between the zeroes and coefficients of quadratic equations:

\alpha+\beta =\frac{-b}{a}=b\\\\and\\\\\alpha \beta =\frac{-c}{a}=-c

Since the product of roots is positive.

So, the signs of the factors will be one positive and one negative.

Hence, Option 'D' is correct.

Determine whether each pair of functions are inverse functions. 1) f(x) = 8x – 10, g(x) = (x + 10) 2) f(x) = 4x + 5, g(x) = 4x –
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function you take it in y=f(x) form, switch x and y and then solve for the new y.

So I'll do the first one.

f(x) = 8x-10

y=8x-10 Now switch x and y

x = 8y-10 Now solve for y.  

x+10=8y

(x+10)/8 = y

g(x) is not that, so it is not the inverse.  Can you figure out the second one?

John is driving to his office to attend a meeting. In the first 10 minutes, he covers a distance of 1 mile every minute. Then he
Georgia [21]

Answer:

The total distance cover by John is 15 min to reach his office .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as ;

In the first 10 minutes , the distance cover is 1 miles every minutes

So, for 10 minutes , total distance cover by John = 10 × 1 = 10 miles

Again ,

John cover distance of 0.5 miles for every minutes , he travel for next 10 min

So, for next 10 min, total distance cover by John = 10 × 0.5 = 5 miles

So, The total distance cover by john = 10 miles + 5 miles = 15 miles

Hence The total distance cover by John is 15 min to reach his office . Answer

If rx – st = r, which expression represents r.
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

{ \tt{rx - st = r}}

» Collect like terms, r terms on the left hand side by subtracting r from both sides and adding st to both sides

{ \tt{(rx - st) { \green{ - r + st }} = r{ \green{ - r + st}}}} \\ { \tt{rx - r = st}}

» On the left hand side, factorise out r

{ \tt{ \green{r(x - 1)} = st}} \\  \\ { \boxed{ \tt{ \blue{ \: r =  \frac{st}{x - 1} }}}}
