Solve for x. 4x^2 − 40x + 94 = 0

Answer: x = 41.22 and 38.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

4x² - 40x + 94 = 0

Using the general formula

x = -b+/-√b²-4ac/2a

Where a = 4, b= -40 c= 94

x = -(-40)+/-√(-40)²-4(4)(94)/2(4)

x = 40+/-√1600-1504/8

x = 40 +/-√96/8

x = 40 +/-9.8/8

x = 40+/-1.22

x= 40+2.22 = 41.22

and x = 40 -1.22

x = 38.78

Krypton-91 is a radioactive substance that decays very quickly. The function Q(t)=Qoe^-kt models radioactive decay of krypton-91
Masteriza [31]
The "k" value should have units and should be negative.
k = -.07 / seconds
Half-Life = ln (.5) / k
Half-Life = ln (.5) / -.07
Half-Life = -.693147 / -.07
Half-Life = 9.9 seconds
(actually, wkpedia says half-life of Krypton 91 is 8.57 seconds)

elapsed time = half-life * log (bgng amt / end amt) / log (2)
elapsed time = 9.9 * log (100 / 10) / 0.30102999566
elapsed time = 9.9 * 1 / 0.30102999566
<span><span>elapsed time = 9.9 * 3.3219280949 </span>
</span><span><span><span>elapsed time = 32.8870881395 </span> </span> </span>
<span>elapsed time = 32.89 seconds (rounded)

What is 9a - 3 (2a - 4) = 15
faltersainse [42]
<span>9a + -3(2a + -4) = 15 Reorder the terms: 9a + -3(-4 + 2a) = 15 9a + (-4 * -3 + 2a * -3) = 15 9a + (12 + -6a) = 15 Reorder the terms: 12 + 9a + -6a = 15 Combine like terms: 9a + -6a = 3a 12 + 3a = 15 Solving 12 + 3a = 15 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-12' to each side of the equation. 12 + -12 + 3a = 15 + -12 Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0 0 + 3a = 15 + -12 3a = 15 + -12 Combine like terms: 15 + -12 = 3 3a = 3 Divide each side by '3'. a = 1 Simplifying a = 1</span>
