Answer:

<h2>x = 1/8 , - 1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

8x² + 7x - 1 = 0

Rewrite 7x as a difference

That's

8x² + 8x - x - 1 = 0

Factorize

8x( x + 1) - ( x + 1) = 0

(8x - 1)( x + 1) = 0

8x - 1 = 0 x + 1 =0

8x = 1 x = - 1

x = 1/8

The solutions are

<h3>x = 1/8 , - 1</h3>

Hope this helps you

1: A bag contains 10 white golf balls and 6 striped golf balls. A golfer wants to add 122 golf balls to the bag. He wants the ra
fgiga [73]
Part A:

Given that a<span> bag contains 10 white golf balls and 6 striped golf balls, the ratio of white to striped golf balls is 10 : 6 = 5 : 3.

Given that </span>a<span> golfer wants to add 122 golf balls to the bag, the of balls each he should add is given by:

5\left( \frac{122}{5+3} \right) \ : \ 3\left( \frac{122}{5+3} \right)=5\left( \frac{122}{8} \right) \ : \ 3\left( \frac{122}{8} \right) \\  \\ =5(15.25) \ : \ 3(15.25)=76.25 \ : \ 45.75 \\  \\ \approx76:46

Therefore, the golfer shold add 76 white golf balls and 46 striped golf balls.



Part B.

You did not indicate the scale factor.

Assuming the scale factor is given by D(o, k) where k can be any number, then the cordinate of the </span><span>coordinates of the image of the quadrilateral VWXY are given by:

V'(6k, 2k), W(-2k, 4k), X(-3k, -2k), Y(3k,-5k)

That is you multiply the scale factor to the coordinates of the preimage to get the coordinates of the image.
