Which inequality is the same as 7-(2)/(b)<=(5)/(b)?

Solve x2 + 8x = 33 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation? {–11, 3} {–3, 11} {–4, 4} {–7, 7}

NemiM [27]

Answer:

The solution of the equation are 3 , -11

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to make the completing square

- The form of the completing square is a(x - h)² + k, where a , h , k

are constant

- The general form of the quadratic is ax² + bx + c, where a , b , c

are constant

- To change the general form to the completing square form equate

them and find the constant a , h , k

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ x² + 8x = 33 ⇒ subtract 33 from both sides

∴ x² + 8x - 33 = 0

- lets change the general form to the completing square

∴ x² + 8x - 33 = a(x - h)² + k ⇒ solve the bracket of power 2

∴ x² + 8x - 33 = a(x² - 2hx + h²) + k ⇒ multiply the bracket by a

∴ x² + 8x - 33 = ax² - 2ahx + ah² + k ⇒ compare the two sides

∵ x² = ax² ⇒ ÷ x²

∴ a = 1

∴ -2ah = 8 ⇒ substitute the value of a

∴ -2(1)h = 8 ⇒ -2h = 8 ⇒ ÷ (-2)

∴ h = -4

∵ ah² + k = -33 ⇒ substitute the value of a and h

∴ (1)(-4)² + k = -33

∴ 16 + k = -33 ⇒ subtract 16 from both sides

∴ k = -49

∴ x² + 8x - 33 = (x + 4)² - 49

* Now lets solve the completing square

∵ (x + 4)² - 49 = 0 ⇒ add 49 to both sides

∴ (x + 4)² = 49 ⇒ take square root for both sides

∴ (x + 4) = ± 7

∵ x + 4 = 7 ⇒ subtract 4 from both sides

∴ x = 3

∵ x + 4 = -7 ⇒ subtract 4 from both sides

∴ x = -11

* The solution of the equation are 3 , -11

Four friends are playing a game. They randomly choose a handful of marbles from a bag. The player with the highest ratio of blue

Monica [59]

We are given the number of Blue and Purple Marbles for each of the four friends. So first we have to find the ratio of blue marbles to purple marbles for each of them.

A) Rosa

Number of blue marbles = 10

Number of purple marbles = 12

Ratio of blue to purple marbles = $\frac{10}{12}=0.833$

B) Chi

Number of blue marbles = 5

Number of purple marbles = 6

Ratio of blue to purple marbles = $\frac{5}{6}=0.833$

C) Alberto

Number of blue marbles = 5

Number of purple marbles = 12

Ratio of blue to purple marbles = $\frac{5}{12}=0.417$

D) Pedro

Number of blue marbles = 10

Number of purple marbles = 6

Ratio of blue to purple marbles = $\frac{10}{6}=1.667$

From the above calculations we can see that Pedro has the highest value of ratio for blue marbles to purple marbles. Also we can see Pedro is the only one for whom the number of blue marbles is more than the number of purple marbles. So this confirms that our calculation is correct.

Thus, the player which gets to go first is Pedro.

How many solutions exist for the given equation?

Virty [35]

Answer:

Hey the answer is one.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a quizlet with 18 of the answers with explanations on it just type in the unit subject and this question and it should pop up.

But on a side note,

I don't know who deleted my answer last time but I was giving you a resource to use if you want to learn the full step by step explanation look on your lesson videos or ask your teacher. This site i have found lets people give one another answers so unless this person and some army is planning on stopping everyone from giving answers i think they should just stop using this site.

Find a quadratic polynomial the sum and product of whose zeroes are -8 and 12 respectively. Hence find the zeroes.

Olenka [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow the sum and the product of the zeroes of this quadratic polynomial

Here is a trick :

when we khow the sum S and the product P ofvtwo numbers we can find them by solving :

x²-Sx+p=0

here S= -8 and P=12

so:

x²+8x+12=0

Let Δ be the discrminant of this equation: a= 1 , b= 8 and c=12

Δ= 8²-4*12 =16

the zeros are:

(-8-4)/2= -6

(-8+4)/2 = -2

verify:

-6+(-2)= -8

-2*(-6)= 12

now the polynomial quadratic is:

(x+6)(x+2)
