The discriminant is the part under the sqrt in the quadratic formula
for ax²+bx+c, the discriminant is b²-4ac
if the discriminant is
less than 0, then there are non-real roots
equal to 0, then there is a double root
greater than 0, then there are 2 real roots (may be rational or irrational)
so
1x²-5x+7
b²-4ac=(-5)²-4(1)(7)=25-28=-3
less than 0 so it is non real roots
answer is D
From the given function modeling the height of the ball:
f(x)=-0.2x^2+1.4x+7
A] The maximum height of the ball will be given by:
At max height f'(x)=0
from f(x),
f'(x)=-0.4x+1.4
solving for x we get:
-0.4x=-1.4
x=3.5ft
thus the maximum height would be:
f(3.5)=-0.2(3.5)^2+1.4(3.5)+7
f(3.5)=9.45 ft
b]
How far from where the ball was thrown did this occur:
from (a), we see that at maximum height f'(x)=0
f'(x)=-0.4x+1.4
solving for x we get:
-0.4x=-1.4
x=3.5ft
This implies that it occurred 3.5 ft from where the ball was thrown.
c] How far does the ball travel horizontally?
f(x)=-0.2x^2+1.4x+7
evaluationg the expression when f(x)=0 we get:
0=-0.2x^2+1.4x+7
Using quadratic equation formula:
x=-3.37386 or x=10.3739
We leave out the negative and take the positive answer. Hence the answer 10.3739 ft horizontally.
Answer:
B'(16,14)
Step-by-step explanation:
In square ABCD, A(2,7) C(8,1) D(2,1). First, find the coordinates of the vertex B. From the attached diagram you can see that CD=6 units and is parallel to the x-axis, AD=6 units and is parallel to the y-axis. So, B(8,7).
The origin O is the center of dilation, 2 is the scale factor. The rule of the dilation is
(x,y)→(2x,2y)
Thus,
B(8,7)→B'(16,14) (see attached figure).
So the question is asking what is 6.2% of 1000? Then rounding our decimals?
If the greatest value of m can only be less than 9, then m<9 is the correct choice.
