Answer: The answer is 8.
Step-by-step explanation: The first step is to convert the expression into figures. We shall call the unknown number Y. So if we are told “the square of a number,” that means Y squared, or better still, Y^2. Further we are told “the difference between the square of a number and 40” and that can be written as;
Y^2 - 40.
Next we are told that this expression is equal to 3 times that number (that is 3Y). That can now be written out as follows,
Y^2 - 40 = 3Y
If we move all expressions to one side of the equation, what we would have is,
Y^2 - 3Y -40 = 0
(Remember that when a positive value crosses to the other side of an equation it becomes negative and vice versa)
We now have a quadratic equation
Y^2 -3Y - 40 = 0
By factorizing we now have
(Y -8) (Y + 5) = 0
Therefore Y - 8 = 0 or
Y + 5 = 0
Hence, Y = 8 or Y = -5
Since we are asked to calculate the positive solution, Y = 8
Answer:
Base = 24 cm or 10cm
Step-by-step explanation:
REMEMBER:
An isosceles triangle ABC with base BC = ‘b' & height AD = ‘h' & its equal sides =13 cm & area = 60 cm²
Using the formulas
![A=\frac{bh_b}{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cfrac%7Bbh_b%7D%7B2%7D)
![h_b=\sqrt{a^2-\frac{b^2}{4} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h_b%3D%5Csqrt%7Ba%5E2-%5Cfrac%7Bb%5E2%7D%7B4%7D%20%7D)
There are 2 solutions for ![b](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=b)
≈ ![10cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=10cm)
Less complex:
Area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h = 60
=> h = 120/b
In right triangle ABD
13² = h² + b² /4 ( by Pythagoras law)
=>169 = 120²/b² + b²/4
=>676 b² = 57600 + b^4
=> b^4 - 676 b² + 57600 = 0
=> b² = 676 +- √(676² - 4*57600) / 2
=> b²= 676 +- √(226576) /2
=> b² = (676 +- 476 )/2
=> b² = 1152/2 , 200 /2
=> b² = 576 , 100
=> b = 24, 10
So, Base = 24 cm or 10cm
The answer is C; 25 by 36
I did the edgenuity quiz for this so I now what it is
Answer:
(0,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
x value of vertex = -b/2a
ax^2+bx+c
-2x^2+0x+0 sinc you have no value of b & c in your quadratic function
-b = 0
2a = (2)(-2)
-b/2a = (0/-4) = 0
x value of the vertex = 0
plug 0 in for all values of x in the function to find y coordinate value
-2(0)^2 = 0
(x,y) = (0,0)
Answer:
The zero is x = -3
- Use the Rational Zero Theorem to list all possible rational zeros of the function.
- Use synthetic division to evaluate a given possible zero by synthetically dividing the candidate into the polynomial.
- Repeat step two using the quotient found with synthetic division.
