X^2-2x=-8  add 1 to both sides

x^2-2x+1=-7  now the left side is a perfect square

(x-1)^2=-7  take the square root of both sides

x-1=±√-7  add 1 to both sides

x=1±√-7 which is

x=1±i√7  so

x=1+i√7 and 1-i√7

The equation y 16t 2 18t 405 describes the height in feet of a ball thrown downward at 18 feet per second from a height of 405 f
kumpel [21]

Answer:

Ball hits the ground after 4.5 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a -1, so that the leading coefficient is positive

So our quadratic is

-1 \times (16t^2 +18t -405)

The key coefficients of two binomial variables can be 1 and 16, or 2 and 8, or 4 and 4, for the leading coefficient of 16.

Yet they can't actually be 4 and 4 because the linear (x) term coefficient has to be a multiple of 4, which it isn't and leading coefficients 1 and 16 on the binomial factors is not likely.

So, 2 and 8 taken as the leading coefficients of  two binomial factors.

For constant  405, possible factorizations are (81\times 5, 27 \times 15, 9 \times 45).

(16t^2 +18t -405) = (8t + 45) (2t - 9)

Taking first factor, thus we find  negative value for given time t. But  second time equivalent to zero gives the value of 4.5 for t

Thus ball hits the ground after 4.5 sec

Answer:

A. (-1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, find which point in the options are in the double shaded region (the region that is shaded the darkest which is the region above the point where the lines cross).

A. (-1, 3) is the correct answer because it falls in the correct region.

B. (-4, 1) is not the correct answer because it does not fall ABOVE both lines like the question says.

C. (0, 1) is not the correct answer because it falls in the 2nd darkest region.
