Which best explains why the expression plus or minus StartRoot b squared minus 4 a c EndRoot cannot be rewritten as b plus or mi

nus StartRoot negative 4 a c EndRoot during the next step?
Negative values, like −4ac, do not have a square root.
The ± symbol prevents the square root from being evaluated.
The square root of terms separated by addition and subtraction cannot be calculated individually.
The entire term b2 − 4ac must be divided by 2a before its square root can be determined.

Answer:

C) The square root of terms separated by addition and subtraction cannot be calculated individually.

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt(b² - 4ac) is not equal to

b - sqrt(4ac)

Because when you square b - sqrt(4ac), it's not b² - 4ac..

(b- sqrt(4ac))² = b² - 2bsqrt(4ac) + 4ac

A section of guttering can hold up to 20 litres of rainwater. The diameter is 11cm. Work out the length in metres.
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

2.1 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The gutter is in the shape of a cylinder.

Its volume is 20 liters and its diameter is 11 cm (0.11 m).

Its radius is half of its diameter => r = 0.055 m.

The volume in cubic metres:

1 litre = 0.001 cubic metres

20 litres = 20 * 0.001 = 0.02 cubic metres

The volume of a section of guttering is given as:

V = \pi r^2h

where h = length of the guttering

Therefore:

0.02 = \pi * 0.055^2 * h\\\\0.02 = 0.009503h\\\\h = 0.02 / 0.009503\\\\h = 2.10 m

The length of the section of guttering is 2.1 m long.

Select the correct answer. Which equation represents a line that is perpendicular to line FG?
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Hey there!

Equation of Line FG: y=\frac{1}{2} x+3.5, because the slope (rise over run) is 2 and we see that the y intercept is 3.5.

Equation to a Line Perpendicular to FG: y=-2x-3\\, because the equations of perpendicular lines have the same (but could also be different y-intercepts), and opposite reciprocal slopes.

Let me know if this helps :)

You intend to draw a random sample in order to test a hypothesis about an unknown population mean. You will use a hypothesis tes
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The correct order is :

1. Determine the null and alternative hypothesis.

2. Select a sample and compute the z - score for the sample mean.

3. Determine the probability at which you will conclude that the sample outcome is very unlikely.

4. Make a decision about the unknown population.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct order of the steps of a hypothesis test is given following

1. Determine the null and alternative hypothesis.

2. Select a sample and compute the z - score for the sample mean.

3. Determine the probability at which you will conclude that the sample outcome is very unlikely.

4. Make a decision about the unknown population.

These steps are performed in the given sequence to test a hypothesis.
