The values are a = 7, b = -9, c = -18.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The given quadratic equation is 7x^{2} - 9x = 18

The general form of the quadratic equation is ax^{2} + bx + c = 0

where,

  • a is the coefficient of x².
  • b is the coefficient of x.
  • c is the constant term.

Now, you have to modify the given quadratic equation similar to the general form of quadratic equation.

So, bring the constant term 18 to the left side of the equation for equating it to zero.

⇒ 7x^{2} - 9x - 18 = 0

Compare the above equation with general form ax^{2} + bx + c = 0

⇒ a = 7

⇒ b = -9

⇒ c = -18

Therefore, the values of a, b, and c are 7, -9 and -18.

The manufacturer of Pepsi claims that its 2-liter bottles contain, on average, no more than 250 calories. A sample of 20 2-liter
Stels [109]

Answer:

Yes, Sample information does indicate that a 2-liter bottle of Pepsi contains more than 250 calories  

Step-by-step explanation:  

Null Hypothesis [H0] : u < 250  

Alternate Hypothesis [H1] : u > 250 {One Tail}  

t = (x' - u) / [ sd / √n ]  

= (255 - 250) / (5.6 / √20)  

5 / (5.6 /√20)  

= 3.99  

As t ie 3.99 > t value 1.65 ie for one tail 95% confidence level. So, we reject the null hypothesis & conclude that it contains more than 250 calories.

Problem 1

x = measure of angle N

2x = measure of angle M, twice as large as N

3(2x) = 6x = measure of angle O, three times as large as M

The three angles add to 180 which is true of any triangle.

M+N+O = 180

x+2x+6x = 180

9x = 180

x = 180/9

x = 20 is the measure of angle N

Use this x value to find that 2x = 2*20 = 40 and 6x = 6*20 = 120 to represent the measures of angles M and O in that order.

<h3>Answers:</h3>
  • Angle M = 40 degrees
  • Angle N = 20 degrees
  • Angle O =  120 degrees

====================================================

Problem 2

n = number of sides

S = sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides

S = 180(n-2)

2700 = 180(n-2)

n-2 = 2700/180

n-2 = 15

n = 15+2

n = 17

<h3>Answer: 17 sides</h3>

====================================================

Problem 3

x = smaller acute angle

3x = larger acute angle, three times as large

For any right triangle, the two acute angles always add to 90.

x+3x = 90

4x = 90

x = 90/4

x = 22.5

This leads to 3x = 3*22.5 = 67.5

<h3>Answers:</h3>
  • Smaller acute angle = 22.5 degrees
  • Larger acute angle = 67.5 degrees

Please help I’m stuck on this question, I’ll give brainliest
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

49.55

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so, what we do is
Get 15% of 23
Get 15% of 32

15% of 23 is 3.45

15% of 32 is 4.80

Now we do

23 - 3.45

32 - 4.80

23 - 3.45 is 19.55

32 - 4.80 is 27.2

This is the part im not 100% on

27.20 + 19.55 is 46.75

6% of 46.75 is 2.80

46.75 + 2.80 is 49.55

Now i dont know if its that way or if you apply the 6% sale tax to each individual item

A firefighter determines that 350 feet of hose is needed to reach a particular building. If the hoses are 60 feet in length, wha
Nady [450]

Answer:

  6 lengths

Step-by-step explanation:

You essentially want the smallest integer solution to ...

  60x ≥ 350

  x ≥ 350/60

  x ≥ 5 5/6

The smallest integer solution to this is x = 6.

The minimum number of lengths of hose needed is 6.

_____

Informally, you know that dividing the required total length by the length of one hose will tell you the number of required hoses. You also know the ratio 350/60 is equivalent to 35/6 and that this will be between 5 and 6. (5·6 = 30; 6·6 = 36) The next higher integer value will be 6.
