There were 100 questions on a math test. If Jamal got 4 times as many right as he got wrong, what was Jamals score?

7 0

Jamal's score is 80

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Number of questions = 100

Let w be the number of wrong answers

Let r be the number of right answers

According to question,

r = 4w

r + w = 100

Solving both the equations we get:

4w + w = 100

5w = 100

w = 20

If w = 20 then r = 4 X 20 = 80

Therefore, Jamal's score is 80

Find an n^th degree polynomial with real coefficients satisfying the given conditions. n = 3; -2 and 2 i are zeros; f(-1) = 15.
Ira Lisetskai [31]
So, n = 3, is a 3rd degree polynomial, roots are -2 and 2i

well 2i is a complex root, or imaginary, and complex root never come all by their lonesome, their sister is always with them, the conjugate, so if 0+2i is there, 0-2i is there too

so, the roots are -2, 2i, -2i

now... \bf \begin{cases}&#10;x=-2\implies x+2=0\implies &(x+2)=0\\&#10;x=2i\implies x-2i=0\implies &(x-2i)=0\\&#10;x=-2i\implies x+2i=0\implies &(x+2i)=0&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;(x+2)\underline{(x-2i)(x+2i)}=0\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{difference of squares}&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad &#10;a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;(x+2)[x^2-(2i)^2]=0\implies (x+2)[x^2-(2^2i^2)]=0&#10;\\\\\\&#10;(x+2)[x^2-(4\cdot -1)]=0\implies (x+2)(x^2+4)=0&#10;\\\\\\&#10;x^3+2x^2+4x+8=0

now, if we check f(-1), we end up with 5, not 15
hmmm

so, how to turn our 5 to 15? well, 3*5, thus

\bf 3(x^3+2x^2+4x+8)=f(x)\implies 3(5)=f(-1)\implies 15=f(-1)

usually, when we get the roots, or zeros, if any common factor that is a constant is about, they get in a division with 0 and get tossed, and aren't part of the roots, thus, we can simply add one, in this case, the common factor of 3, to make the 5 turn to 15

If f(x) = - 8x +2 then f^-1(x) =
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

f^-1(x)  = -1/8x +1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function

Exchange x and y and then solve for y

y =-8x+2

Exchange x and y

x = -8y+2

Now solve for  y

Subtract 2 from each side

x-2 = -8y+2-2

x-2 = -8y

Divide by -8

(x-2)/-8 = -8y/-8

Distribute

-1/8x +1/4 = y

f^-1(x) = -1/8x +1/4

Convert the following equation to slope-intercept form:<br> 5x - 15y = 105
balandron [24]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to solve the equation so that it looks like y = mb + b

So -15y = -5x + 105, then divide both sides by -15 so y = -5/-15 x + 105/-15

y = \frac{1}{3} x  - 7

7 x (-2) = ? * what’s the answer
Karolina [17]

Hey there!

<h3>Guide: </h3>
  • Negative & negative = positive
  • Positive & negative = negative
  • Positive & positive = positive
  • Negative & positive = negative

<h3>So, far <u>in your particular question we’re doing</u> <u>positive</u> (7) <u>&</u> <u>negative</u> (-2) so <u>that means your</u> <u>result will most likely be a negative </u></h3><h3 />

<em>Now let’s answer your question, shall we </em>

<h2>7 • (-2) =<em><u> -14</u></em> </h2>

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
