None of them.

Simplify each

9/2 = 4.5

4.500 = 4.5

4.5 = 4.5

The answer to your question would be that they are equal. None of them are greater because nine divided by two equals 4.500. I hope this helped :)

Solve the following equation by factoring:9x^2-3x-2=0

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The two roots of the quadratic equation are

$x_1= - \frac{1}{3} \text{ and } x_2= \frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Original quadratic equation is $9x^{2}-3x-2=0$

Divide both sides by 9:

$x^{2} - \frac{x}{3} - \frac{2}{9}=0$

Add $\frac{2}{9}$ to both sides to get rid of the constant on the LHS

$x^{2} - \frac{x}{3} - \frac{2}{9}+\frac{2}{9}=\frac{2}{9}$ ==> $x^{2} - \frac{x}{3}=\frac{2}{9}$

Add $\frac{1}{36}$ to both sides

$x^{2} - \frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{36}=\frac{2}{9} +\frac{1}{36}$

This simplifies to

$x^{2} - \frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{36}=\frac{1}{4}$

Noting that (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

If we set a = x and b = $\frac{1}{6}\right)$ we can see that

$\left(x - \frac{1}{6}\right)^2$ = $x^2 - 2.x. (-\frac{1}{6}) + \frac{1}{36} = x^{2} - \frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{36}$

$\left(x - \frac{1}{6}\right)^2=\frac{1}{4}$

Taking square roots on both sides

$\left(x - \frac{1}{6}\right)^2= \pm\frac{1}{4}$

So the two roots or solutions of the equation are

$x - \frac{1}{6}=-\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}$ and $x - \frac{1}{6}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}$

$\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} = \frac{1}{2}$

So the two roots are

$x_1=\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{2} = -\frac{1}{3}$

and

$x_2=\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{3}$

A city park commission received a donation of playground equipment from a parents' organization. The area of the playground need

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Length = 20.49 yards and Width = 12.49 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangular playground is given by 256 yards square. It is also known that one of the sides of the playground is 8 yards longer than the other side. Therefore, let the smaller side by x yards. Then the longer side will be (x+8) yards. The area of the rectangle is given by:

Area of the rectangle = length * width.

256 = x*(x+8)

x^2 + 8x = 256. Applying the completing the square method gives:

(x)^2 + 2(x)(4) + (4)^2 = 256 + 16

(x+4)^2 = 272. Taking square root on both sides gives:

x+4 = 16.49 or x+4 = -16.49 (to the nearest 2 decimal places).

x = 12.49 or x = -20.49.

Since length cannot be negative, therefore x = 12.49 yards.

Since smaller side = x yards, thus smaller side = 12.49 yards.

Since larger side = (x+8) yards, thus larger side = 12.49+8 = 20.49 yards.

Thus, the length and the width to minimize the perimeter of fencing is 20.49 yards and 12.49 yards respectively!!!

Let y= 4t+2 be a linear function representing the distance from home for an ant t minutes after starting out fom a location near

bija089 [108]

The given equation is of the form y = m x + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept that is value of y when x =0 , or we can say b is the initial value.

In the given equation which is y = 4t+2, on comparing we will get m =4 that is slope is 4 and here slope represents the rate or speed and 2 is the y intercept that is b. And 2 represents the initial position that is, the ant is 2 units from the home initially .
