x_{1,2} =  \frac{-b+-  \sqrt{ b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}

is the formula for calculating x1 and x2

To prove x1 + x2 = -b/a all we need to do is to express x1 and x2 from equation above

once we do we will get -2b/2a which is equal to -b/a because square root part will negate each other. one has + sign in front and other - sign

Showing that x1x2 = c/a goes similar way.
the numerator parts is actually difference of squares. after that we will have:
-b^2 -b^2 + 4ac = 4ac

in denominator we have 2a*2a = 4a^2
4ac/4aa = c/a

The radius r of a circle is increasing at a rate of 7 centimeters per minute. (a) find the rate of change of the area when r = 1
VikaD [51]
Dr /dt = 7

A = pi r^2

dA / dr = 2pir

dA/dt = dA/dr  * dr/dt = 2pir * 7  = 14pir

when r = 12   rate of change of the area =  14*pi*12  =  168pi

            =  527.79 cm^2 / minute to nearest hundredth

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to use trigonometric functions

cos 30 = adj. /hyp.

cos 30 = 12 / y

y = 12/cos 30 ≅13.86

tan 30 = opp./adj

tan30 = x / 12

x = 12 tan30 ≅6.93

Which of the following equations matches the function shown above?
Ksenya-84 [330]

So, the function is obviously shifted up by 1 so it rules out A and B, and we also see that the period is 4pi rather than 2pi, and using the fact that:

\frac{2\pi}{b}=4\pi \implies \frac{b}{2\pi}=\frac{1}{4\pi}\implies b=\frac{1}{2}

Now that we know our b value, we see that the correct answer would be C.
