The equation |ax + b| = c must have ?

Mathematics

NARA [144]3 years ago

Answer: Option c

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition |ax + b| = c can be written as:

-ax-b=c if ax+b is greater than zero (ax+b>0)

ax+b=c if ax+b is equal or greater than zero (ax+b\geq0)

This means that this function has two solutions.

2. Then, |ax + b| is always greater than zero. Therefore, if c is less than zero, then the equation has no solution.

3. Therefore, the function can have two solutions if c>0 and no solution is c<0.

Then, the function can have 0,1 or 2 solutions.

Answer:

0, 1, or 2 solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation |ax + b| = c

The equation have absolute value symbol

Absolute value always gives us the positive number.

For absolute value function , we need to consider two cases

positive and negative.

|x|=x  for positive ,  and |-x|=x for negative case

For negative case we include negative sign

So  |ax + b| = c can be written as 2 equations

(ax+b)=c                                  (ax+b)=-c

So we will get maximum of 2 solutions

The equation |ax + b| = c must have 0, 1, or 2 solutions

Rachel has an 80:1 scale drawing of the floor plan of her house. On the floor plan, the dimensions of her rectangular living roo
Allushta [10]

Answer:

208⅓ ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of Rachel's living room are 80 times the measurements on the scale drawing.

Calculate the width:

                                                                                     w = 80 × 1⅞

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction     = 80 × 15/8

Cancel the 8s                                                                  = 10 × 15

                                                                                        = 150 in

Convert inches to feet                                                   = 150/12  

Convert the improper fraction to a mixed number      = (144 + 6)/12

                                                                                        = 12⁶/₁₂

Reduce the fraction to lowest terms                             = 12½ ft

Calculate the length

l = 80 × 2½  = 80 × 5/2 = 40 × 5 = 200 in = 200/12 = (192 + 8)/12

l = 16⁸/₁₂ = 16⅔ ft

Calculate the area

A = lw

A = 16⅔ × 12½

Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions

A = 50/3× 25/2

Cancel the 2s

= 25/3 × 25

Multiply numerators and denominators                        

= 625/3

Convert the improper fraction to a mixed number    

= (624 + 1)/3

= 208⅓ ft²

The area of Rachel's living room is 208⅓ ft².

Help please!!!Which of the quadratic functions has the narrowest graph? 1)y=9x^2 2)y=-0.9x^2 3)y=-10x^2 4)y=2/5x^2
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Option 3) y = -10x²

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quadratic function is in the form of

y = ax² + bx + c

Then coefficient 'a' decides how much narrow will be the graph.

Now from the given options, option C  (y = -10x²) will be the narrowest graph.

Option 3) y = -10x²
