There is no common factor between 15, 17 and 18 because 17 is prime.

15z² +17z - 18 =

d = 17² - 4.15.-18

d = 289 + 1080

d = 1369

z = (-17 +/- \/1369) : 2 * 15

z = (-17 + 37) : 30

z' = 20 : 30 = 2/3

z" = (-17 - 37) : 30

z" = -54 : 30 = -1.8

Which equation is the inverse of y = 16x2 + 1?

Llana [10]

Answer:

$y=\frac{\sqrt{x-1} }{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

$y=16x^2+1$

For this function to have an inverse, we must restrict the domain, say $x\ge0$

We interchange x and y to get,

$x=16y^2+1$

We now make y the subject to get;

$x-1=16y^2$

We divide through by 16 to get;

$\frac{x-1}{16}=y^2$

We now take the square root of both sides to get;

$\pm \sqrt{\frac{x-1}{16}}=y$

$y=\pm \frac{\sqrt{x-1} }{4}$

Since $x\ge 0$ , the inverse function is

$y=\frac{\sqrt{x-1} }{4}$

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

0.105 = 10.5% probability that an accident results in a death.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the probability that an accident results in a death?

5% of 60%(sunny)

25% of 20%(foggy)

12.5% of 20%(rainy)

$p = 0.05*0.6 + 0.25*0.2 + 0.125*0.2 = 0.105$

0.105 = 10.5% probability that an accident results in a death.
