Answer:

A. No real solution

B. 5 and -1.5

C. 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula is:

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ - b \pm \sqrt {b^2 - 4ac} }}{{2a}}} \end{array}, with a being the x² term, b being the x term, and c being the constant.

Let's solve for a.

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 5 \pm \sqrt {5^2 - 4\cdot1\cdot11} }}{{2\cdot1}}} \end{array}

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 5 \pm \sqrt {25 - 44} }}{{2}}} \end{array}

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 5 \pm \sqrt {-19} }}{{2}}} \end{array}

We can't take the square root of a negative number, so A has no real solution.

Let's do B now.

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm \sqrt {7^2 - 4\cdot-2\cdot15} }}{{2\cdot-2}}} \end{array}

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm \sqrt {49 + 120} }}{{-4}}} \end{array}

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm \sqrt {169} }}{{-4}}} \end{array}

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm 13 }}{{-4}}} \end{array}

\frac{7+13}{4} = 5\\\frac{7-13}{4}=-1.5

So B has two solutions of 5 and -1.5.

Now to C!

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ -(-44) \pm \sqrt {-44^2 - 4\cdot4\cdot121} }}{{2\cdot4}}} \end{array}

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 44 \pm \sqrt {1936 - 1936} }}{{8}}} \end{array}

\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 44 \pm 0}}{{8}}} \end{array}

\frac{44}{8} = 5.5

So c has one solution: 5.5

Hope this helped (and I'm sorry I'm late!)

16. write an inequality for each graph
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Question 16

(a) x < 1 : the values of x are smaller than than 1 (e.g. possible values are 0, -1, -2, etc) and since the circle is not shaded it means that 1 isn't a possible value of x

(b) x \geq -2 : the circle is filled therefore -2 is included in the answer

Question 17

(a) unfilled dot above -2 and arrow pointing to the left

(b) shaded circle above 4 with and arrow pointing to the right →

SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!!
notsponge [240]

Answer:

60 square units; 40 units

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the missing side you use the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

8^2 + b^2 = 17^2

64 + b^2 = 289

b^2 = 225

b = 15

area is l*h*1/2

15 * 8 * 1/2 = 60 square units

perimeter is adding them all

15 + 8 + 17 = 40 units
