8p² - 16p = 10
8p² - 16p - 10 = 0 Divide through by 2
4p² - 8p - 5 = 0
Multiply first and last coefficients: 4*-5 = -20
We look for two numbers that multiply to give -20, and add to give -8
Those two numbers are 2 and -10.
Check: 2*-10 = -20 2 + -10 = -8
We replace the middle term of -8p in the quadratic expression with 2p -10p
4p² - 8p - 5 = 0
4p² + 2p - 10p - 5 = 0
2p(2p + 1) - 5(2p + 1) = 0
(2p + 1)(2p - 5) = 0
2p + 1 = 0 or 2p + 5 = 0
2p = 0 -1 2p = 0 - 5
2p = -1 2p = -5
p = -1/2 p = -5/2
The solutions are p = -1/2 or -5/2
The answer is <span>x - 1 = 3x + 9
All steps are:
</span>Step 1: 4ˣ⁻¹ = 64ˣ⁺³<span>
Step 2: 4</span>ˣ⁻¹ = (4³)ˣ⁺³ <span>
Step 3: 4</span>ˣ⁻¹ = 4³ˣ⁺⁹
Step 4: x - 1 = 3x + 9
Step 5: x - 3x = 1 + 9
Step 6: -2x = 10
Step 7: x = 10/-2
Step 8: x = -5
The volume of the triangluar block is 4 cubic inches. What is the approximate length of y? -- 2.8 inches
The vertex is (-1,1)
Explanation
The vertex formula to find the x coordinate of the formula is -b/2a
So we plug in the values into the formula which is
-4/2(2)
Simplify it
-4/4
=-1
-1 is now the x cord of the vertex.
So now we will plug in the x into the quadratic equation which is 2x^2+4x+3
2(-1)^2 + 4(-1) + 3 = 2 -4 +3
Simplify it
5 - 4= 1
Y=1
So the Coordinates of the vertex is (-1,1)
