Choose the solutions to the quadratic equation x2 – 8x – 9 = 0. –21 –1 9 29

Mathematics

6 0

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

Please answer this! Im desperate UvU,
Ratling [72]
Part A:

x=5
4x-1 ≤19
4(5)-1 ≤19
20-1 ≤19
19 ≤19

x=5
4x-1<19
4(5)-1<19
19<19

Explanation:
In problem one the greater then symbol has a line under it, this means that the symbol now means greater then or equal to. Since 19 is equal to 19 it is correct. In problem to the greater then symbol has no line under it meaning it only means greater then. Since 19 is not greater then 19 it is false.
So basically the difference is:
≤ = greater then or equal to
< = greater then


Part B:
5x+2=47
-2 -2
5x=45
/5 /5
x=9

Explanation:
Since when you solve the equation x=9 the value 9 from the set makes the equation.


Hope this helped :)

Solve the inequality. Write your answer using interval notation. X(x − 1)(x + 4) &gt; 0
Nata [24]

Set each factor EQUAL to zero to find the zeroes (since it is not actually equal to zero, you will use an open circle when graphing and an open bracket when writing in interval notation).

x = 0           x-1 = 0             x + 4 = 0

                   x = 1                x = -4

Next, choose a value to the far left, between each of the zeroes, and to the far right to evaluate if it makes a true statement when input into the given inequality.

far left (I choose -5): -5(-5 - 1)(-5 + 4) > 0   →  (-)(-)(-) > 0  →   negative > 0  FALSE

- 4 to 0 (I choose -2): -2(-2 - 1)(-2 + 4) > 0   →  (-)(-)(+) > 0  →   positive > 0  TRUE

0 to 1 (I choose 0.5): .5(.5 - 1)(.5 + 4) > 0   →  (+)(-)(+) > 0  →   negative > 0  FALSE

far right (I choose 2): 2(2 - 1)(2 + 4) > 0   →  (+)(+)(+) > 0  →   positive > 0  TRUE

Answer: (-4, 0) U (1, ∞)

On a rectangular soccer field, Sang is standing on the goal line 20 yards from the corner post. Jazmin is standing 99 yards from
Anna007 [38]
Okay, so Sang is standing 20 yards away from one corner, and Jazmin is standing 99 yards away from the same corner. If this is a rectangle (I like visuals, so I'll use them to explain), then:
               
                    99ft
      A  -------------------------  B
         |                              |
20 ft  |                              |
         |                              |
    C   --------------------------  D

The question is asking you to solve for the diagonal line between points C and B. If you imagine a line there, you actually have the rectangle split into two triangles. So if you have triangle ABC, side CB would be the longest line, or the hypotenuse. That means you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve the problem.

A^2 + B^2 = C^2
99^2 + 20^2 = C^2
9,801 + 400 = C^2
10,201 = C^2

Now you solve for the square root of 10,201 to get C.

sqr (10,201) = C
C = 101 yards
