In can be less mental effort if the equation is multiplied by -1 first.
.. x^2 -10x +8 = 0
.. x^2 -10x +25 +8 -25 = 0
.. (x -5)^2 = 17
.. x -5 = ±√17
.. x = 5 ±√17

The values of x that satisfy the given equation are
.. x = 5 -√17 ≈ 0.877
.. x = 5 +√17 ≈ 9.123

Triangle RST has the vertices R(2, 3), S(-2, 1), and T(-1, 5). What are the coordinates after the two transformations: Translati
igor_vitrenko [27]

Given :

Triangle RST has the vertices R(2, 3), S(-2, 1), and T(-1, 5).

To Find :

The coordinates after the two transformations:

a) Translation (x, y) --> (x - 2, y - 1) .

b)  Rotation: 90 degrees counterclockwise at the origin.

Solution :

Applying transition a) , we get :

R'(2-2,3-1) , S'(-2-2,1-1) , T'(-1-2,5-1)

R'( 0, 2) , S'( -4 , 0), T'( -3, 4)

Now , When any point ( h , k ) is rotated 90° counterclockwise about the origin, the new points are (-k , h) .

So , R''( -2, 0) , S''( 0, -4 ) , T''( -4 , -3 ) .

Therefore , the coordinates after transformations are

( -2, 0) ,( 0, -4 ) , ( -4 ,-3 ) .

Hence , this is the required solution .

The average height of a 13 year old male in the U.S. is 60 inches, with a standard deviation of 2 inches. The average weight of
Romashka [77]

Since the average height is 60 inches and its deviation is 2 inches, one deviation to the right (or higher) is 62 inches (60 + 2). Two deviations is 64 inches, three deviations is 66 inches, and four deviations is 68 inches.


Since the average weight is 100 pounds and its deviation is 5 inches, we repeat the process from finding heights to get to 115 pounds. That takes three deviations.


The MORE deviations away, the more unusual it is. So the height (4 deviations) is more unusual than the weight (3 deviations).

<u>Geometry</u>

  • Circumference of a Circle Formula: C = πd

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Circumference <em>C </em>= 141.3 ft

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>d</u></em>

  1. Substitute in <em>C</em> [Circumference Formula]:                                                       141.3 ft = πd
  2. Substitute in π (approximation):                                                                      141.3 ft ≈ 3.14d
  3. [Division Property of Equality] Divide both sides by 3.14:                              45 ft ≈ d
  4. Rewrite:                                                                                                             d ≈ 45 ft

The zeros of function dare -3 and 8. Which expression could be a factor of function d?
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the zero product property

x-a = 0  x-b = 0  where a and b are the zeros

(x-a)(x-b) =0

(x- -3)(x -8) =0

(x+3) (x-8) =0
