Explain why the quadratic relation y=2x^2+3x+5 would have no zeros

Mathematics

alex41 [277]3 years ago
5 0

Complete the square to rewrite the quadratic:

2 <em>x</em>² + 3 <em>x</em> + 5 = 2 (<em>x</em>² + 3/2 <em>x</em>) + 5

... = 2 (<em>x</em>² + 3/2 <em>x</em> + 9/16 - 9/16) + 5

... = 2 (<em>x</em>² + 3/2 <em>x</em> + (3/4)²) + 5 - 9/8

... = 2 (<em>x</em> + 3/4)² + 31/8

Any real number squared becomes non-negative, so the quadratic expression has a minimum value of 31/8, which is greater than 0, and so there are no (real) <em>x</em> for which <em>y</em> = 0.

Bruce has a bottle that contains 60% lemon juice and the rest water. The bottle has 1 liter of water.
Cloud [144]

<span>part A:
Let 
t =  total the liquid in the bottle including lemon juice and water
so t =  lemon juice + water ( w = water, l = lemon juice) so t = l + w
but the bottle has 1 liter of water. and <span>60% lemon juice
</span>contains 60% lemon juice = 0.6, so l = 0.6t and w(water ) = 1 liter
t = l + w
substitute l = 0.6t and w = 1 into t = l + w
now you have equation
t = 0.6t + 1

part B:
from part A, you have equation t = 0.6t +1
solve for t
 t = 0.6t +1
subtract 0.6t on both sides
t - 0.6t = 0.6t - 0.6t + 1
simplify
0.4t = 1
divide both sides by 0.4
0.4t/0.4 = 1/ 0.4
simplify
t = 2.5

2.5 liters is total including lemon juice and water
2.5 - 1(1 liter of water) = 1.5 <span>1 liter of lemon juice</span></span>

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Its incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is width times height but in this case its 3 numbers so after you did width time height if I'm not mistaken you multiply that number by 4 so you were supposed to multiply 5 and 6 the answer is 30 and then multiply 30 by 4 which is 120 I think.
