What are the roots of the equation x^2+6x-9=0

Mila [183]

Answer:

x = approx. 1.24 or -7.24

Step-by-step explanation:

It's hard to factor directly so we should use the quadratic formula or complete the square. I'm going to go with completing the square.

x²+6x-9=0

x²+6x=9

x²+6x is the same as x²+2·3·x, in order to make this into the algebraic identity (A+B)²=A²+2AB+B², we must add B², or in this case 3² to both sides. (A is x, B is 3)

x²+6x+9=18

(x+3)²= 18

x+3= ±√18

x= ±4.24 -3 (approximately 4.24)

First solution for x = 4.24-3 = 1.24

Second solution for x = -4.24-3 = -7.24

Hilda has $210 worth of $10 and $12 stock shares. The number of $10 shares is five more than twice the number of $12 shares. How

klasskru [66]

Let's first define variables.
y: number of shares of $ 10
x: number of shares of $ 12
We write the system of equations:
10x + 12y = 210
y = 2x + 5
Solving the system:
x = 75/17
y = 235/17
Answer:
she has:
75/17 shares of $ 12
235/17 shares of $ 10

Ann is adding water to a swimming pool at a constant rate. The table below shows the amount of water in the pool after different

N76 [4]

Answer:

(a) As time increases, the amount of water in the pool increases.

11 gallons per minute

(b) 65 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

From inspection of the table, we can see that as time increases, the amount of water in the pool increases.

We are told that Ann adds water at a constant rate. Therefore, this can be modeled as a linear function.

The rate at which the water is increasing is the rate of change (which is also the slope of a linear function).

Choose 2 ordered pairs from the table:

$\textsf{let}\:(x_1,y_1)=(8, 153)$

$\textsf{let}\:(x_2,y_2)=(12,197)$

Input these into the slope formula:

$\textsf{slope}\:(m)=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{197-153}{12-8}=\dfrac{44}{4}=11$

Therefore, the rate at which the water in the pool is increasing is:

11 gallons per minute

To find the amount of water that was already in the pool when Ann started adding water, we need to create a linear equation using the found slope and one of the ordered pairs with the point-slope formula:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$\implies y-153=11(x-8)$

$\implies y-153=11x-88$

$\implies y=11x-88+153$

$\implies y=11x+65$

When Ann had added no water, x = 0. Therefore,

$y=11(0)+65$

$y=65$

So there was 65 gallons of water in the pool before Ann starting adding water.

A vaccine has 90% probability of being effective in preventing a certain disease. the probability of getting the disease if the

IgorLugansk [536]

If 25% of the people are vaccinated, then 75% of the people are not vaccinated. Of those not vaccinated, each has a 50% chance of contracting the disease. The probability that someone is both not vaccinated and contracts the disease is (0.75)(0.5)=0.375.
The probability that someone is vaccinated and contracts the disease is (0.25)(0.1)=0.025 (it is multiplied by 0.1 because if the vaccine is 90% effective, then there is a 10% chance someone that is vaccinated can contract the disease.
Add these together for the total: 0.375+0.025=0.4
There is a 40% chance that someone chosen at random will contract the disease.
