0.56x = 14 

<span>x = 14 / 0.56 </span>

<span>x = 25 performers</span>

You would solve using a proportion. 14/.56 = x/.56 (x is the unknown). Cross multiply and solve for x. Your answer is 25 total performers.

If a quadratic equation with real coefficients has a discriminant of 3 then the two roots must be
lukranit [14]

In a quadratic equation

q(x) = ax^2 + bx + c 

The discriminant is = b^2 - 4ac

We have that discriminant = 3

If b^2 - 4ac > 0, then the roots are real.

If b^2 - 4ac < 0 then the roots are imaginary

<span>In this problem b^2 - 4ac > 0   3 > 0 </span>

then the two roots must be real

For the past ten years, Michelle has been tracking the average annual rainfall in Boynton Beach, Florida by recording her data i
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rainfall when you add all 10 years of rainfall up and divide by 10 is an average of 59.946 inches of rain each year. The equation for the data is y = -0.53x + 64.45, this means that the rainfall is getting less each year at a -0.53 inches of rain each year.

x = year (2004 would be 4, etc)

Determine the solution set of each equation
maks197457 [2]

A=x1 = -8,x2 =2, B=x1= -5,x2=5, C=y1 = -4, y2 =5, D=y 18 over 5

alternative form

y=3 3over 5, =3.6

And E=x1=0, x2 =2 over 3

Alternative form

x1=0, x2=0.666667.

question A

Solving steps:Solve the quadratic equation

x²+6x-16=0

write 6x as a difference

x2 +8x-2x-16=0

factor out x for the expression

xx(x+8)-2x-16=0

factor out -2 from the expression

xx(x+8)- 2(x+8)=0

factor out x+8 from the expression

(x+8)x(x- 2)=0

when the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0

x+8=0

x - 2=0

solve the equation for x

x= -8

x - 2=0

solve the equation for x

x= -8

x =2

the equation has 2 solution

x1 = -8,X2 =2

answer is

x1 = -8,x2 =2

Or

Solving steps:Number of solution

x²+6x-16=0

Determine the number of solution using the

discriminant D =b²- 4ac

D =6²- 4x1x(-16)

simply the expression

D=100

Since D>0, the quadratic equation has 2 real solution

2 real solution

Answer is

2 real solution

Question B

Solving steps:Solve the quadratic equation

x²-25=0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

x²=25

Take the square root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots

x=+5

Write the solutions,one with a +sign and one with a -sign

x= -5

x=5

The equation has 2 solutions

x1= -5,x2=5

the answer is

x1= -5,x2=5

Or

Solving steps:Number of solution

x²-25=0

Determine the number of solutions using the discriminant D=b²- 4ac

D=0²- 4x1x(-25)

Simply the expression

D=100

Since D>0,the quadratic equation has 2real solutions

Answer is

2real solutions

answer of question C is

y1 = -4, y2 =5

Answer of question D is

y 18 over 5

alternative form

y=3 3over 5, =3.6

Answer of question E is

x1=0, x2 =2 over 3

Alternative form

x1=0, x2=0.666667
