3x^2 + 4x = -8 solve using quadratic formula

Mathematics

Firdavs [7]3 years ago

Use the quadratic equation to solve this (image of the quadratic equation is below)

Remember that quadratic functions are set up like so:

ax^{2} +bx +c = 0

To make the equation 3x² + 4x = -8 into a quadratic function you must bring -8 to the left side of the equation so it equals zero. To do this add 8 to both sides

3x² + 4x + 8= -8 + 8

3x² + 4x + 8 = 0

That means that in this equation...

a = 3

b = 4

c = 8

^^^Plug these numbers into the quadratic equation and solve  (Keep in mind that +/- is ± )

\frac{-4+/-\sqrt{(4)^{2}-4(3)(8)}}{2(3)}

\frac{-4+/-\sqrt{16-96}}{6}

\frac{-4+/-\sqrt{-80}}{6}

^^^There is no real solution to this equation. You must have an imaginary solution

\frac{-4+/-i\sqrt{80}}{6}

Simplify

\frac{-2+/-2i \sqrt{5}}{3}

Hope this helped!

A conveyor belt moves at a constant rate of 12 feet in 3 seconds. A second conveyor belt moves at a constant rate of 21 in 7 sec
White raven [17]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:<u> If we look at the first conveyor belt, the rate is 12ft in 3 seconds, or 4 feet a second. The second conveyor belt moves at 21 feet in 7 seconds, or 3 feet a second. Since the two values are unequal, we can conclude it is not a proportional relationship. </u>

___________ Qualitative Inferential Descriptive Quantitative statistics consists of organizing and summarizing information​ coll
Alika [10]

Answer:

<u>Descriptive</u> statistics consists of organizing and summarizing information​ collected, while <u>inferential</u> statistics use methods that generalize results obtained from a sample to the population and measure the reliability of the results.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, descriptive statistics summarize a given data set using measures of central tendency and measures of variability.  

Measures of central tendency include:

  • mean.
  • median.
  • mode.

Measures of variability include:

  • standard deviation.
  • variance.
  • the minimum and maximum variables.

By definition, inferential statistics are used to make generalizations about a population from data samples.

For example, you might ask a sample of 100 people if they like shopping. You could make a bar chart of yes or no answers (descriptive statistics) or you could use your research and then, reason which is the percentage of the population that likes shopping (inferential statistics).
