The winner of a basketball contest is the individual who scores the highest percentage of free throws. The top three finishers a

re contestants A, B, and C. Contestant A made 85% of her free throws, contestant B made 0.88 of his free throws, and contestant C made 2125
of his free throws. Graph an inequality that represents the possible percentages (in decimal form) of free throws made by the other contestants in the competition. (Assume there are no ties.)

Answer:

<h2>Less than 0.84</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Convert all numbers to decimals
  • 85% --> 0.85
  • 0.88 --> 0.88
  • 21/25 --> 0.84

Since these are the top three, the rest of the competitors are less than 0.84.

For what values of $x$ is $$\frac{x^2 + x + 3}{2x^2 + x - 6} \ge 0?$$ note: be thorough and explain why all points in your answe
Rus_ich [418]

To solve the inequality \frac{x^2+x+3}{2x^2+x-6}\ge \:0

\mathrm{Factor\:the\:left\:hand\:side\:}\frac{x^2+x+3}{2x^2+x-6}:

The numerator x^2+x+3 is not factorizable.

so factor the denominator 2x^2+x-6:

2x^2+x-6=\left(2x^2-3x\right)+\left(4x-6\right)=x\left(2x-3\right)+2\left(2x-3\right)\\ \mathrm{Factor\:out\:}x\mathrm{\:from\:}2x^2-3x\mathrm{:\quad }x\left(2x-3\right)\\ \mathrm{Factor\:out\:}2\mathrm{\:from\:}4x-6\mathrm{:\quad }2\left(2x-3\right)\\

Now take \mathrm{Factor\:out\:common\:term\:}\left(2x-3\right)

Then we get factor of the denominator as \left(2x-3\right)\left(x+2\right)

Thus \frac{x^2+x+3}{2x^2+x-6}=\frac{x^2+x+3}{\left(x+2\right)\left(2x-3\right)}

Now \mathrm{Compute\:the\:signs\:of\:the\:factors\:of\:}\frac{x^2+x+3}{\left(x+2\right)\left(2x-3\right)}\\

Signs of x^2+x+3>0

\mathrm{Choosing\:ranges\:that\:satisfy\:the\:required\:condition:}\:\ge \:\:0

x\frac{3}{2} is the required solution of the given inequality.

The point (5, -2) is rotated 90° about the origin. Its image is
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

(2,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule to 90 degrees about the origin is (x,y) to (-y,x). You basically switch the values of y and x but remember the value of y is negative. The value of y is -2 so -2 is now 2 since the rule changed the sign (-2×-y=2) and 5 isnt affected except it is the x value. Just know that since they r switched, x is now 2 and y is 5 when rotated 90 degrees about the origin.
