The equation -2x2-8x = 10is rewritten in the form of -2(x-p)2+q = 0. What is the value of q?

Mathematics
1 answer:
scoundrel [369]3 years ago

Answer:

q = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x²-8x = 10 (divide both sides by -2)

x² + 4x = -5 (Apply completing the square method)

x² + 4x + (4/2)²= -5 + (4/2)²

x² + 4x + 2²= -5 + 2²    (reduce left hand side using a²+2ab+b² =  (a+b)² )

(x+2)² = -5 +4

(x+2)² = -1

(x+2)² + 1 = 0   (multiply both sides by -2)

(-2)(x+2)² + 1 (-2) = 0

-2[x - (-2)]² + (-2) = 0  ---> compare this with -2(x-p)² + q = 0

We can see that p = 2 and q = -2

Quadrilateral ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of 2 centered around (2, 2). Which statement is true about the dilation?
arsen [322]

Answer:

Option (B) is true i.e segment B'D' will run through (2,2) and will be longer than the segment BD.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the assumption quadrilateral ABCD is shown in figure a.  

First located the center of the dilation which is located at (2,2) as shown in figure b.  

The next thing we want to do is to determine the distance of the center of dilation to each of the points of quadrilateral ABCD as shown in figure b.  

Let’s just start with the distance from the center to the point A, but notice we don’t have to move up and down in y direction. So, what we have to do is to increase this by the factor 2. Because this horizontal distance is 1 i.e. the distance from dilation center (2,2) to point A, we just have to multiply by 2 which would be a distance of 2 and this point right here will be the new location of point A’ (0,2).

And the distance from the center to the point C is the horizontal distance of 2 i.e. the distance from dilation center (2,2) to point C, we just have to multiply by 2 which would be a distance of 4 and this point right here will be the new location of point C’ (6,2).

And the distance from the center to the point B is the upward vertical distance of 1 i.e. the distance from dilation center (2,2) to point B, we just have to multiply by 2 which would be a vertical distance of 2 and this point right here will be the location of point B’ (2,4).  

And similarly the distance from the center to the point D is the downward vertical distance of 1 i.e. the distance from dilation center (2,2) to point D, we just have to multiply by 2 which would be a vertical distance of 2 and this point right here will be the location of point D’ (2,0).

So, Quadrilateral A'B'C'D' is dilated by a scale factor of 2 centered around (2, 2).

Just notice in figure b that the segment B'D' will run through (2,2) and will be longer than the segment BD.

<u>So,option (B) is true</u> <u>i.e segment</u><u> </u><u>B'D' will run through (2,2) and will be longer than the segment BD.</u>

F is between E and G. EF=3X, EG= 11x-2, FG= 5x+16. Find the value of the variable
Salsk061 [2.6K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of segments is used:

  EF +FG = EG

  3x +(5x +16) = 11x -2 . . . . substitute given expressions

  8x +18 = 11x . . . . . . . . add 2

  18 = 3x . . . . . . . . subtract 8x

  6 = x . . . . . . divide by 3

The value of the variable is 6.

__

<em>Check</em>

The segment lengths are ...

  EF = 3x = 3·6 = 18

  FG = 5x+16 = 5·6 +16 = 46

  EG = 11x -2 = 11·6 -2 = 64 = 18+46 . . . answer is correct

Ms.Tao flies roundtrip twice yearly between Jacksonville and Los Angeles on business the distance between the two cites is 2,150
vlabodo [156]
2,150 estimated would be 2,000. Since she flies there and back multiply 2,000 by 2. Since she flies it twice multiply 4,000 by 2. Estimated: 8,000 miles. To find the exact miles Do the same thing but with 2,150: 2,150 times 2 = 4,300. 4,300 times 2 = 8,600. She flies exactly 8,600 miles per year :)
