Degree 3 polynomial with zeros 4, 6, and -2.

Solve using quadratic formula<br> 6x^2-x=2

Nadya [2.5K]

$6x^2-x=2\implies 6x^2-1x-2=0 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{quadratic formula} \\\\ \stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{6}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{-1}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-2}=0 \qquad \qquad x= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a}$

$x = \cfrac{ -(-1) \pm \sqrt { (-1)^2 -4(6)(-2)}}{2(6)}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{1+48}}{12} \\\\\\ x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{49}}{12}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm 7}{12}\implies x = \begin{cases} \frac{8}{12}\to &\frac{2}{3}\\[1em] -\frac{6}{12}\to &-\frac{1}{2} \end{cases}$

30. Each interior angle of a regular polygon is 4 times each exterior ang

kifflom [539]

Answer:

(a) the size of each exterior angle 360/10=36

(b) the number of sides of the polygon. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Each interior angle of a regular polygon is 4 times each exterior angle

∴sum of interior angles: (n-2)*180=4*360

n-2=8

n=10

(a) the size of each exterior angle 360/10=36

(b) the number of sides of the polygon. 10

the graph shows the speed of a vehicle during the final 50 seconds of a journey at the start of the 50 seconds the speed is k me

Simora [160]

Answer:

a) 27 m/s

b) 30 m/s

c) i) 3

ii) Deceleration

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, the correct question is given as:

The graph shows information about the speed of a vehicle during the final 50 seconds of a journey. At the start of the 50 seconds the speed is k metres per second. The distance travelled during the 50 seconds is 1.35 kilometres.

(a) Work out the average speed of the vehicle during the 50 seconds

(b) Work out the value of k.

(c) (i) Calculate the gradient of the graph in the final 10 seconds of the journey

(ii) Describe what this gradient represents

Answer:

The graph is attached. The total time = 50 seconds, total distance = 1.35 km = 1350 m

a) The average speed is the ratio of the total distance traveled to the total time taken to cover this distance. The average speed is given by the formula:

$Average \ speed=\frac{total\ distance}{total\ time}\\ Substituting: \\ Average \ speed=\frac{1350\ m}{50\ s} = 27\ m/s$

b) From the graph, the total distance covered is the area of the graph. The graph is made up of a rectangle and triangle, the area of the graph is equal to the sum of area of rectangle and area of triangle.

$Total \ distance=Total\ area=Area\ of \ rectangle+Area\ of \ triangle\\Total \ distance=(length *breadth)+\frac{1}{2}base*height\\1350 \ m=(40*k)+0.5*10*k\\1350=40k+5k\\45k=1350\\k=1350/45\\k=30\ m/s$ c) i) The gradient in the last 10 seconds is the ratio of change in speed to change in time
