Answer:

81.2222 or 81 with 2 left over

Step-by-step explanation:

731/9 = 81.2222

81.2222 rounded down = 81

9*81 = 729

731-729 = 2 left over

Solve equation by using the quadratic formula.
Sati [7]

Answer: 1:  x=3, x=1

2:  x= -5

3:  There are 2 real solutions.

4:  There are 2 real solutions.

5:  There are no real solutions.

6.  There is 1 real solution.

7.  

8.  x= -6, x = -2

9.  x = -1/6, x=1

10.  

Explanation:

1.  The quadratic formula is

Substituting our known information we have:

2.  Rewriting the quadratic in standard form we have x²+10x-25=0. Substituting this into the quadratic formula gives us:

3.  The discriminant is b²-4ac.  For this problem, that is 20²-4(-4)(25)=400--400=800.  Since this is greater than 0, there are 2 real solutions.

4.  The discriminant in this problem is 7²-4(2)(-15)=49--120=49+120=169.  This is greater than 0, so there are 2 real solutions.

5.  The discriminant in this problem is 1²-4(-2)(-28)=1-224=-223.  Since this is less than 0, there are no real solutions.

6.  If the discriminant of a quadratic is 0, then by definition there is 1 real solution.

7.  Rewriting the quadratic we have 3x²-4x-2=0.  Using the quadratic formula we have:

8.  Factoring this trinomial we want factors of 12 that sum to 8.  6*2 = 12 and 6+2=8, so those are our factors.  This gives us:

(x+6)(x+2)=0

Using the zero product property we know that either x+6=0 or x+2=0.  Solving these equations we get x= -6 or x= -2.

9.  Factoring this trinomial we want factors of 6(-1)=-6 that sum to -5.  (-6)(1)=-6 and -6+1=-5, so this is how we "split up" the x term:

6x²-6x+1x-1=0

We group together the first two and the last two terms:

(6x²-6x)+(1x-1)=0

Factor the GCF out of each group.  In the first group, that is 6x:

6x(x-1)+(1x-1)=0

In the second group, the GCF is 1:

6x(x-1)+1(x-1)=0

Both terms have a factor of (x-1), so we can factor it out:

(x-1)(6x+1)=0

Using the zero product property, we know either x-1=0 or 6x+1=0.  Solving these equations we get x=1 or x=-1/6.

10.  Substituting our information into the quadratic formula we get:

If the common difference of an ap is 3/2 and its 20 th term 35×1/2 find first term and 15 th term
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

d = 3/2

a₂₀ = a₁+19d

35/2 = a₁ + 19×3/2

a₁ = 35/2 - 19×3/2 = -11

a₁₅ = a₁+14d = -11 + 14×3/2 = 10

Find x, if the distance end points is (x,1) and (4,4) with the total distance is the square root of 10.
Alex Ar [27]
Okay, take a look at diagram 1 (I know it's rubbish I did it on paint :D), this shows all the information you've given in the question. The two coordinates and the distance between them.

Now if we draw additional lines on this diagram, we can make a right-angled triangle (this is on diagram 2). We can also work out the lengths of the additional sides because we know both coordinates at the end-points of the additional lines.

Finally because this is a right-angled triangle, Pythagoras' theorem must apply to its sides meaning
( \sqrt{10} )^2 = (x-4)^2 + 3^2
10 = (x-4)^2 + 9
(x-4)^2 = 1 \Rightarrow x-4 = 1
therefore x=5.

Ciara is naking a new outfit she needs 2 1/2 yards of the fabric for the shawl and 1 3/4 yards of fabric for the dress. If she h
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

1 1/4 yards

$20

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of fabric more that she needs can be determined by subtracting the sum of the yards needed for the shawl and the dress from the fabric she has

sum of the yards needed for the shawl and the dress =

2\frac{1}{2} + 1\frac{3}{4}

3\frac{2 + 3}{4} = 3\frac{5}{4} = 4\frac{1}{4}

Yards needed

4\frac{1}{4} - 3 = 1\frac{1}{4}

cost of dance outfit = $16 x 1\frac{1}{4}

\frac{5}{4} × $16  = $20

Which statement is true for the set of natural numbers?
Alja [10]
It's closed under addition. You can take any two natural numbers you want, add them up and you'll get some other natural number (eg: 3 and 5 ---> 3+5 = 8)

it's not closed under subtraction. Sure 5-3 = 2 is a natural number but 3-5 = -2 is not a natural number

so that leads us to the answer being choice B
