Answer: The correct equation is (A)~x^2+4x+4=0.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to select the quadratic equation that has only one solution.

We know that - for the quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0,a\neq 0 the type of solution can be determined by the discriminant D=b^2-4ac as follows :

(i) If D > 0, then the equation will have two distinct real solutions.

(ii) If D < 0, then the equation will have two distinct complex solutions.

(ii) If D = 0, then there is only one real solution.

(A) The first equation is x^2+4x+4=0.

Here, a = 1, b = 4 and c = 4.

So, the discriminant is given by

D=b^2-4ac=4^2-4\times 1\times 4=16-16=0.

Therefore, the equation will have only one real solution.

(B) The second equation is x^2+x=0.

Here, a = 1, b = 1 and c = 0.

So, the discriminant is given by

D=b^2-4ac=1^2-4\times 1\times 0=1-0=1>0.

Therefore, the equation will have two distinct real solutions.

(C) The third equation is x^2-1=0.

Here, a = 1, b = -1 and c = 0.

So, the discriminant is given by

D=b^2-4ac=(-1)^2-4\times 1\times 0=1-0=1>0.

Therefore, the equation will have two distinct real solutions.

Thus, (A)~x^2+4x+4=0 is the correct equation.

Timmy is helping his grandpa on his chicken farm. Timmy has to pack 66 eggs into cartons, minimizing the packing cost. He can us
Orlov [11]

The way to distribute the eggs at the lowest cost would be using 5 cartons of 12 eggs and 1 carton of 6 eggs.

Since Timmy is helping his grandpa on his chicken farm, and he has to pack 66 eggs into cartons, minimizing the packing cost, and he can use 12-egg cartons and 6-egg cartons, and two 12-egg cartons cost as much as three 6-egg cartons, to determine how many cartons of each should be used, the following calculation must be performed:

  • 2 x 12 = 3 x 6
  • 24 = 18
  • Thus, assuming as an example that a total of 2 cartons of 12 eggs and 3 cartons of 6 eggs cost $ 3, the value of each carton would be the following:
  • 3/3 = 1
  • 3/2 = 1.5  
  • 66/12 = 5.5
  • 5 x 1.5 + 1 x 1 = X
  • 7.5 + 1 = X
  • 8.5 = X

In this way, the way to distribute the eggs at the lowest cost would be using 5 cartons of 12 eggs and 1 carton of 6 eggs.

A spherical balloon is inflated with gas at the rate of 500 cubic centimeters per minute. How fast is the radius of the balloon
zmey [24]

Using implicit differentiation, it is found that the radius is increasing at a rate of 0.0081 cm per minute.

<h3>What is the volume of a sphere?</h3>

The volume of a sphere of radius r is given by:

V = \frac{4\pi r^3}{3}

Applying implicit differentiation, the rate of change is given by:

\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r^2\frac{dr}{dt}

In this problem, we have that:

\frac{dV}{dt} = 500, r = 70

Hence the rate of change of the radius is given as follows:

\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r^2\frac{dr}{dt}

19600\pi\frac{dr}{dt} = 500

\frac{dr}{dt} = \frac{500}{19600\pi}

\frac{dr}{dt} = 0.0081

The radius is increasing at a rate of 0.0081 cm per minute.
