Answer:

-1 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the quadratic, factor and set its factors equal to 0. Factoring is the action of breaking up a polynomial into pieces which multiply to make it. The factors are found by multiplying numbers to make C and add to B of ax^2+bx+c.

Here c = -9 and b = -8. The numbers -9 and 1 multiply to -9 and add to -8. These are the factors (x-9)(x+1).

Set each equal to 0 and solve for x.

x-9 = 0

x = 9

x+1 =0

x = -1

Consider a sphere of radius R > 0. Take two antipodal points A and B on the sphere, and another point C on the sphere. Check
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

To this question; we want to show that if two antipodal points on a sphere were A and B, for any random point C on the sphere, AC is perpendicular to BC?

Step-by-step explanation:

I would proceed by imagining the sphere in a three dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. For example, use a sphere of diameter 2 and let it sit at the origin. Then (0, 0, 1) and (0, 0, -1) are the vector locations of the “north and south poles” of the sphere.

Now choose the vector location of any point on the surface of the sphere. It will have a vector location - we’ll call it (x, y, z). Now the vectors from your point to the two poles are (-x, -y, 1-z) and (-x, -y, -1-z).

Now just form the dot product of those two vectors:

(-x, -y, 1-z) . (-x, -y, -1-z) = x^2 +y^2 + (1-z)*(-1-z)

Now the truth of your claim will be embodied in that dot product being zero:

x^2 + y^2 - (1+z)(1-z) = 0

x^2 + y^2 - (1-z^2) = 0

x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 1

But that last line is just the definition of points on the surface of a sphere of radius 1, so the claim is proven.

Since R>0 and AC is perpendicular to BC, the <ACB is at right angle.

Please, find attached a simple image to show antipodal points (Two points that makes a diameter) and a point C on the sphere.

Use the inequalities to describe the shaded area on the grid​
raketka [301]
The shaded area would be 2 because there is a whole square shaded in the the other two are 1/2 so if you add 1/2 together with another 1/2 plus the whole shaded square you would get two.


At least that’s what I understood from the question
