Answer:

Option A) x equals quantity of 3 plus or minus 3i square root of 7 all over 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the quadratic equation:

-2x^2 +3x - 9 = 0

To find the solution to this quadratic equation, we use the quadratic formula:

ax^2 + bx + c = 0\\\\x = \displaystyle\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}\\\\\text{where a is the coefficient of } x^2\text{, b is the coefficient of x and c is the constnt term of the eqution.}

Putting the value of a, b and c in the quadratic formula:

a = -2\\b = 3\\c = -9\\\\x = \displaystyle\frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{3^2 - 4(-2)(-9)}}{2(-2)}\\\\x = \frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{-63} }{-4}\\\\x = \frac{-3 \pm 3i\sqrt7}{-4}\\\\x = \frac{3 \mp3i\sqrt7}{4}

Hence, the correct option is option A) x equals quantity of 3 plus or minus 3i square root of 7 all over 4.

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the solution of -2x^{2}+3x-9=0

By quadratic formula

x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

=\frac{-3\pm \sqrt{(3)^{2}-4(-2)(-9)}}{2(-2)}

=\frac{-3\pm \sqrt{9-72}}{-4}

=\frac{3\mp \sqrt{-63}}{4}

\frac{3\mp 3\sqrt{-7}}{4}=[\frac{3\mp 3i\sqrt{7}}{4}]

Option A is the answer.

The test scores of a geometry class are given below. 90, 75, 72, 88, 85 The teacher wants to find the variance for the class pop
ella [17]
The data given as a whole would be called ungrouped data. Now to get the variance, you will need the formula:

s^2=   <u>Σ(x-mean)^2</u>
                   n      

x = raw data
mean = average of all data
n = no. of observations
s^2 = variance

Now we do not have the mean yet, so you have to solve for it. All you need to do is add up all the data and divide it by the number of observations. 

Data: <span>90, 75, 72, 88, 85        n= 5  
</span>Mean=<u>Σx</u>
            n
Mean = <u>90+75+72+88+85 </u>  = <u>410</u> = 82
                        5                        5

The mean is 82. Now we can make a table using this.

The firs column will be your raw data or x, the second column will be your mean and the third will be the difference between the raw data and the mean and the fourth column will be the difference raised to two. 

90-82 = 8
8^2 =64

75-82 = -7
-7^2 =49

72-82 = -10
-10^2=100

88-82=6
6^2 = 12

85-82=3
3^2=9

Now you have your results, you can now tabulate the data:

 x      mean         x-mean        (x-mean)^2     
90       82                8                      64                       
75       82               -7                      49
72       82              -10                    100
88       82                6                       36
85       82                3                       9

Now that you have a table, you will need the sum of (x-mean)^2 because the sigma sign Σ in statistics, means "the sum of."

64+49+100+36+9 = 258

This will be the answer to your question. The value of the numerator of the calculation will be 258.

zzz [600]

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solving in steps:</u>

  • x(8x - 8y)⁻¹ + y(8y - 8x)⁻¹ =
  • x/8(x-y) +y/8*(-(x-y))
  • x/8(x-y) - y/8(x-y) =
  • (x -y)/8(x-y) =
  • 1/8

Answer is 1/8

Find the equation of the circle with center at the origin that contains the point (-8,6)
Katena32 [7]
The center is at origin O(0,0).
If it contains the point, P(-8,6), then the radius r is, by Pythagoras theorem,
r=sqrt((-8)^2+6^2)=10

The general equation of a circle at centre (xc,yc) with radius r is given by
(x-xc)^2+(y-yc)^2=r^2

Substituting r=10, (xc,yc)=(0,0)
the resulting equation is therefore

(x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=10^2
or simply
x^2+y^2=100

Please help me thank you
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

-2\frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is simple substitution, \frac{1}{2}(-\frac{1}{5})-\frac{2}{3}(3)=> -\frac{1}{10} - \frac{6}{3}=> -\frac{1}{10} - 2= -2\frac{1}{10}.
