If the discriminant of a<br> quadratic equation is equal to -8, which statement describes the roots?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Since -8<0 then the roots α and β of the quadratic equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0 are unequal and imaginary: α and β are a pair of the complex conjugates.

Solve for x:-ax+3b&gt;5
Salsk061 [2.6K]
Our current equation is:
-ax + 3b > 5

Our objective is to solve for x, so let's first get -ax by itself.
Subtract 3b from both sides.

-ax > -3b + 5
Now, we have -a multiplying x, so we need to perform the opposite order of operations (like previously shown with 3b).
Divide both sides by -a.
Remember to flip the inequality when multiplying or dividing by a negative.

x <_ (-3b + 5)/-a is your final answer.

I hope this helps!

A company determines that monthly sales​ S(t), in thousands of​ dollars, after t months of marketing a product is given by ​S(t)
patriot [66]

Answer: a) S'(1) = 136; S'(2) = 104; S'(4) = 76;

b) S''(1) = -38; S''(2) = -26; S''(4) = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) S' means first derivative;

\frac{d}{dt}(6t³ - 45t² +180t +130) = 6t² - 50t + 180

S'(1) = 6.1² - 50.1 + 180

S'(1) = 136

S'(2) = 6.2² - 50.2 + 180

S'(2) = 104

S'(4) = 6.4² - 50.4 + 180

S'(4) = 76

b) S'' is the second derivative of S:

\frac{d^2}{dt^2}(6t² - 50t + 180) = 12t - 50

S''(1) = 12.1 - 50

S''(1) = -38

S''(2) = 12.2 - 50

S"(2) = -26

S"(4) = 12.6 - 50

S"(4) = -2

c) Derivative is the rate of change of a function. The first derivative is the slope of the tangent line to the graph if the function in a determined point, while the second derivative measures how the rate of change is changing.

Analysing the values, we can conclude that the sales of the product after t months is decreasing at a rate of 12.

For what values of a and b are x+1 and x+2 factors of x3 – ax2 – bx –8? Write down the other factor.
emmainna [20.7K]
<h2>For a = 1 and b = 10 x+1 and x+2 factors of  x³-ax²-bx-8 = 0</h2><h2>Other factor is (x-4)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

                 x³-ax²-bx-8 = 0

Its factors are x+1 and x+2

That is x = -1 and x = -2 are its roots

Substituting x = -1

               (-1)³-a(-1)²-b(-1)-8 = 0

                -1 - a + b - 8 = 0

                      b - a = 9 ---------------------eqn 1

Substituting x = -2

               (-2)³-a(-2)²-b(-2)-8 = 0

                -8 - 4a + 2b - 8 = 0

                      2b - 4a = 16 ---------------------eqn 2

eqn 1 x -2

                      -2b + 2a = -18 ---------------------eqn 3

eqn 2 + eqn 3

                      -2a = -2

                          a = 1

Substituting in eqn 1

                        b - 1 = 9

                         b = 10

For a = 1 and b = 10,  x+1 and x+2 factors of  x³-ax²-bx-8 = 0

The equation is  x³-x²-10x-8 = 0

Dividing with x + 1 we will get

                   x³-x²-10x-8 = (x+1)(x²-2x-8)

Dividing (x²-2x-8) with x + 2 we will get

                  x²-2x-8 = (x+2)(x-4)

So we have

               x³-x²-10x-8 = (x+1)(x+2)(x-4)

Other factor is (x-4)
