Rounded to the nearest hundredth, what is the positive solution to the quadratic equation 0 = 2x2 + 3x – 8? Quadratic formula: x

OleMash [197]

ANSWER

$x=1.39$ to the nearest hundredth.

EXPLANATION

We have the equation,

$0=2x^2+3x-8$

Which can be rewritten as

$2x^2+3x-8=0$

The question demands the use of the quadratic formula.

Comparing this to the general quadratic equation;

$ax^2+bx+c=0$

$a=2,b=3,c=-8$

The quadratic formula is given by;

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

We now substitute all the values in to the formula;

$x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{(3)^2-4(2)(-8)}}{2(2)}$

We simplify to obtain;

$x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{9+64}}{4}$

$x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{73}}{4}$

We now split the plus or minus sign to obtain;

$x=\frac{-3-\sqrt{73}}{4}$

This implies that;

$x=-2.89$

$x=\frac{-3+\sqrt{73}}{4}$

This will evaluate to;

$x=1.39$

Hence, the positive solution rounded to the nearest hundredth is

$x \approx 1.39$

Given ΔABC with A(–4, –2), B(4, 4), and C(18, –8), write the equation for the line containing median segment The term is line se

Monica [59]

Here we want to find the equation of the line containing the median CP.

P, being the midpoint of AB can be found using the midpoint formula as:

$\displaystyle{ P=( \frac{-4+4}{2} , \frac{-2+4}{2} )=(0, 1)$ .

The slope m of the line through CP can be found by the slope formula using points C(18, -8) and P(0, 1):

$\displaystyle{ m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \frac{-8-1}{18-0}= \frac{-9}{18}= \frac{-1}{2}$ .

Now, we can write the equation of the line with slope -1/2, passing through
P(0, 1):

$y-1= \frac{-1}{2}(x-0)\\\\y= -\frac{1}{2}x+1$ .

Answer: $y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1$

In the following Earliest Start Time (EST) graph, assume each unit of time is an hour.

Stels [109]

Step-by-step explanation:

Critical Path Analysis is presented using the circle and arrow diagrams.
Earliest Start Time = the earliest possible time of starting the activity
An arrow running between two event circles shows the activity needed to complete that task.
All arrows run left to right
Time for doing just task E = 8 hours (as shown in the figure)
