Find the zeros of g(x) = -x^2 + 6x - 8

Mathematics

lbvjy [14]3 years ago

(Remember to set g(x) to zero).

For this, I will be completing the square. Firstly, what two terms have a product of 8x^2 and a sum of 6x? That would be 4x and 2x. Replace 6x with 2x + 4x: 0=-x^2+2x+4x-8

Next, factor -x^2 + 2x and 4x - 8 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside of the parentheses: 0=-x(x-2)+4(x-2)

Next, you can rewrite the equation as 0=(-x+4)(x-2)

Now apply the Zero Product Property:

-x+4=0\\-x=-4\\x=4\\\\x-2=0\\x=2

<u>The zeros of this equation are 4 and 2.</u>

(2x + 5)= (2x + 3)(2x - 1)\\2x+5=4x^2-2x+6x-3\\4x^2-2x+6x-3-2x-5=0\\4x^2+2x-8=0\\(4x+1-\sqrt{33})( 4x+1+\sqrt{33})=0 \\ x=\frac{-1+\sqrt{33} }{4} /or/x=\frac{-1-\sqrt{33} }{4}

At 3:20 the hands of a clock form an acute angle that measures exactly how many degrees
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The answer is 30°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hand of a clock rotates a full 360°, let's say 12 o'clock is 0°/360°. The hour hand for this example is at 3, it moved 90° and the minute hand marks 20 minutes meaning it's positioned on the 2. From 12 to 2 the minute hand has moved 60°. 90-60= 30. Therefore 3:20 forms a 30° angle.
