Solve x2 = 144. 72 12 ±12 −12

1 answer:

6 0

If x²=144, then x= positive 12 and x= negative 12.

I have no idea what the '72' is doing in there.
If it means x²=144.72 , then

x = +/- 12.03 (rounded)

Oh wait. Now I understand what the 72 is. It's one of the answer choices.
Specifically, it's the customary absurd choice for students who have no clue.

If the circumference of a circle is 120 inches and M angle B equals 18° then what is the length of arc AC

Andru [333]

Answer:

For a circle of radius R, the circumference is:

C = 2*pi*R

where pi = 3.14

And if we have an arc defined by an angle θ, the length of the arc is:

A = (θ/360°)*2*pi*R

Here we can not see the image, then i assume that B is the angle that defines the arc AC.

Now we know that the circumference is 120 in, then:

2*pi*R = 120in

Then the length of the arc is:

A = (θ/360°)*120 in

Then if the angle is 18°, we have:

A = (18°/360)*120 in = 6in

Vanessa and zack are playing a game where a player with the lower score wins at the end of the game Vanessa has a score of -3 5/

Novosadov [1.4K]

Complete question :

Vanessa and Zack are playing a game where the player with the lower score wins. At the end of the game, Vanessa has a score of -3 5/8 and Zack has a score of -3 2/3. Which statement explains who won?

Vanessa won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.625 < -3.666.

Vanessa won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625.

Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.625 < -3.666.

Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625

Answer: Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Player with the lowest score wins ;

Vanessa's score = - 3 5/8

Zack's score = - 3 2/3

Converting to decimal:

Vanessa :

-3 5/8 = - 29 /8 = - 3.625

Zack:

-3 2/3 = - 11/3 = - 3.666

Comparing the scores :

From the negaryce side of a number line :

-3.666 comes before - 3.625, hence, - 3.666 is lower or lesser than - 3.625

-3.666 < - 3.625, hence Zack won

The quadratic function h(t)=-16.1t^2 + 150 models a balls height, in feet, over time, in seconds, after it is dropped from a 15

katrin [286]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: The first graphic representation.

We are given a quadratic equation, meaning that it could be two possible solutions for the exercise, however, we are talking about time, so we have to consider only the obtained positive values.

Let's make the equation equal to 0 in order to find the values of "t"

$h(t)=-16.1t^2 + 150\\0=-16.1t^2 + 150\\16.1t^2=150\\t^2=\frac{150}{16.1}=9.32\\t=+-\sqrt{9.32}=+-3.05\\t1=3.05\\t2=-305$

So, discarding the negative value, we can use the possitive value to find the correct graphic representation.

To find the correct graphic representation we must take into consideration the following:

- We must remember that the sign of the coefficient of the quadratic term (t^2) will define if the parabola opens downward or upward.

From the given quadratic (or parabola) equation we have:

$a=-1\\b=0\\c=150$

So, since the coefficient of the quadratic term is negative, the parabola opens downward.

- Since we are looking for a graphic that represents the change in height over time, we need to look for a graphic that shows only positive values for the x-axis (time)

- We are looking for a parabola which y-axis intercept is equal to 150.

Therefore, the graphic representation of the quadratic function that models a ball's height over time is the first graphic representation.

Have a nice day!

Find the value of x when the area of a triangle is 22 in2 and has a base of 3x-1 and height of x.

Virty [35]

The formula for the area of a triangle is (1/2)bh = A
when we plug in the numbers, we get (1/2)(3x-1)x = A
using the distributive property we get (1.5x - .5)x = A
Then its 1.5x^2 - .5x = A
then if we factor out 0.5x we get 0.5x(3x-1) = A
then with the zero product property, 0.5x can equal 0 and x would need to equal 0.
if 3x-1 = 0 , then 3x = 1 then x = 1/3. so our answer would be 1/3 I'm pretty sure because a length cannot be 0
