Which equation of the solutions of x2 = -7x – 8

timama [110]

Answer:

x = 1, -5.56

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = -7x - 8

shift -7x and -8 to the other side . Remember when u shift minus changes into plus.

x^2 + 7x + 8 = 0

using quadratic equation formula

in quadratic equation one value comes positive and other comes in negative

a = 1 , b = 7 and c = 8

taking positive sign

x = (-b + $\sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c}$ ) /2*a

x = (-7 + $\sqrt{7^2 - 4*1*8}$ ) /2*1

x = (-7 + $\sqrt{49 + 32}$ ) /2

x = (-7 + $\sqrt{81}$ )/ 2

x = -7 + 9 / 2

x = 2/2

x = 1

taking negative sign

(-b - $\sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c}$ ) /2*a

x = (-7 - $\sqrt{7^2 - 4*1*8}$ ) /2*1

x = (-7 - $\sqrt{49 - 32}$ ) /2

x = -7 - $\sqrt{17}$ / 2

x = -7 - 4.12 / 2

x = -11.12/2

x = -5.56

therefore x = 1 , - 5.56

Which polynomial correctly combines the like terms and expresses the given polynomial in standard form? 8mn5 - 2m6+5m²n4 - m³n³

777dan777 [17]

Option A is the correct option. The polynomial correctly combines the like terms and expresses the given polynomial in standard form is,

f(m,n) = n⁶+7mn⁵+14m²n⁴-5m³n³-6m⁶-2m⁶

<h3>What is the polynomial equation?</h3>

A polynomial equation is an equation in which the unknown variable is one and the highest power of the unknown variable is n. Here n can be any real number.

Given information-

The polynomial equation given in the problem is,

8mn⁵-2m⁶+5m²n⁴-m³n³+n⁶-4m⁶+9m²n⁴-mn⁵-4m³n³

Let the above polynomial is. Thus,

f(m,n) = 8mn⁵-2m⁶+5m²n⁴-m³n³+n⁶-4m⁶+9m²n⁴-mn⁵-4m³n³

The terms with the same base and exponents can be added or subtracted from each other. Thus solve the equation further as,

f(m,n) = ( 8mn⁵ - mn⁵ ) -2m⁶ + ( 5m²n⁴+9m²n⁴ ) - ( m³n³-4m³n³) + n⁶-4m⁶

f(m,n) = 7mn⁵ - 2m⁶ + 14 m²n⁴ - 5 m³n³ + n⁶- 6m⁶

Arrange it as,

f(m,n) = n⁶+7mn⁵+14m²n⁴-5m³n³-6m⁶-2m⁶

Thus the polynomial correctly combines the like terms and expresses the given polynomial in standard form is,

f(m,n) = n⁶+7mn⁵+14m²n⁴-5m³n³-6m⁶-2m⁶

How does the graph of f(x) = (x + 2)4 + 6 compare to the parent function g(x) = x4?

Alchen [17]

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the transformed graph is of function f(x) = (x + 2)^4 + 6 and the parent function g(x) = x^4

The transformed graph function g(x) was shifted two (2) units to the left and was translated six (6) units upward.

When the function is shifted to the right, the factor of x will be negative and when it's shifted to the left, the factor of x will be positive.

Therefore, function g(x) = x^4 is shifted 2 units to the left and translated 6 units upward to form f(x) = ( x + 2 )^4 + 6.

The two-way table shows the distribution of gender to favorite film genre for the senior class at Mt. Rose High School.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The second statement is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The table shows the information of the favorite film genre of the students of the class regarding their gender.

You have to prove which statement is correct:

1)The probability of randomly selecting a student who has a favorite genre of drama and is also female is about 17 percent.

If you chose a student at random, you need to calculate the probability of its favorite genre being "Drama" (D) and the student being female (F), symbolically: P(D∩F)

To do so you have to divide the number of observed students that are female and like drama by the total number of students:

P(D∩F)= $\frac{24}{240}= \frac{1}{10} =0.10$

This means that the probability of choosing a student at random and it being a female that likes drama is 10%.

<em>This statement is incorrect.</em>

2) Event F for female and event D for drama are independent events.

Two events are independent when the occurrence of one of them doesn't affect the probability of occurrence of the other one.

So if F and D are independent then:

P(F)= P(F|D)

-or-

P(D)=P(D|F)

The probability of the event "Female" is equal to $P(F)= \frac{Total females in the class}{n} = \frac{144}{240} = \frac{3}{5}= 0.6$

The probability of the event "Drama" is:

$P(D)= \frac{Total students that like "Drama"}{n}= \frac{40}{240}= \frac{1}{6}= 0.166$

$P(F|D)= \frac{P(FnD)}{P(D)}= \frac{\frac{1}{10} }{\frac{1}{6} }= \frac{3}{5} = 0.6$

As you can see P(F)= 0.6 and P(F|D)= 0.6 so both events are independent.

<em>This statement is correct.</em>

3) The probability of randomly selecting a male student, given that his favorite genre is horror, is 16/40

This is a conditional probability, you already know that the student likes horror movies (H), and out of that group you want to know the probability of the student being male (M):

$P(M|H)= \frac{number of male students that like horror movies}{total students that like horror movies}= \frac{16}{38}= \frac{8}{19} = 0.42$
