Answer:

A multiple choice question with 6 options will have a 16.7% chance of getting the answer correct, and a ratio of 1:6.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a 1 in 6 chance of getting the answer correct, which can be represented with the fraction \frac{1}{6} .

To get a percentage, simply divide the 1 by the 6 and you will get an answer of 0.16666667. Multiply this by 100 and you have your answer.

To get a ratio, convert the fraction to a ratio making the left side of the ratio the numerator (the 1) and the right side the denominator (the 6).

Explain why y^2 = x (X input, y output) is not a function.

sveta [45]

y^2 = x isn't a function because there is at least one value of x that produces multiple values of y. In fact, any x value greater than 0 yields two y values. If x = 0, then y = 0 is the only solution. ... Graphically, the equation fails the vertical line test, which is another way to determine that it is not a function.

The ribbon was 3 1/4 inches wide and had an area of 19 1/2 square inches. What is the length of the ribbon? Please Help Will Giv

miv72 [106K]

Hello!

The formula for finding area is l × w

If the area is 19 ½ inches and it was 3 ¼ inches wide, then the length will be 19 ½ ÷ 3 ¼ (Area ÷ Width)

$19 \frac{1}{2} \div 3 \frac{1}{4}$

Change both to improper fraction

$19 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{39}{2}$

$3 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{13}{4}$

$\frac{39}{2} \div \frac{13}{4}$

Keep 39/2
Change ÷ to ×
Flip 13/4 = 4/13

$\frac{39}{2} \times \frac{4}{13} = \frac{156}{26} = 6$

$\framebox {The length of the ribbon is 6 inches}$

. If α and β are the roots of

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$18x^2+85x+18 = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Given Equation is </em></u>

=> $2x^2+7x-9=0$

Comparing it with $ax^2+bx+c = 0$ , we get

=> a = 2, b = 7 and c = -9

So,

Sum of roots = α+β = $-\frac{b}{a}$

α+β = -7/2

Product of roots = αβ = c/a

αβ = -9/2

<em>Now, Finding the equation whose roots are:</em>

α/β ,β/α

Sum of Roots = $\frac{\alpha }{\beta } + \frac{\beta }{\alpha }$

Sum of Roots = $\frac{\alpha^2+\beta^2 }{\alpha \beta }$

Sum of Roots = $\frac{(\alpha+\beta )^2-2\alpha\beta }{\alpha\beta }$

Sum of roots = $(\frac{-7}{2} )^2-2(\frac{-9}{2} ) / \frac{-9}{2}$

Sum of roots = $\frac{49}{4} + 9 /\frac{-9}{2}$

Sum of Roots = $\frac{49+36}{4} / \frac{-9}{2}$

Sum of roots = $\frac{85}{4} * \frac{2}{-9}$

Sum of roots = S = $-\frac{85}{18}$

Product of Roots = $\frac{\alpha }{\beta } \frac{\beta }{\alpha }$

Product of Roots = P = 1

<u><em>The Quadratic Equation is:</em></u>

=> $x^2-Sx+P = 0$

=> $x^2 - (-\frac{85}{18} )x+1 = 0$

=> $x^2 + \frac{85}{18}x + 1 = 0$

=> $18x^2+85x+18 = 0$

This is the required quadratic equation.
