Answer:

The only integer solution is n1=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer by using the following equation applied to quadratic polynomials with the form an^{2}+bn+c=0:

n=\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

For our case 2n^{2}-3n-2=0, a=2, b=-3, and c=-2, so:

n=\frac{-(-3)\±\sqrt{(-3)^{2}-(4*2*(-2))}}{2*2}

n=\frac{3\±\sqrt{9+16}}{4}

n=\frac{3\±5}{4}

n1=\frac{3+5}{4}=2

n2=\frac{3-5}{4}=-0.5

In conclusion, although there are 2 roots (n1, n2), only one of them is an integer, which is n1=2.

Lorne subtracted 6x3 – 2x + 3 from –3x3 + 5x2 + 4x – 7. Use the drop-down menus to identify the steps Lorne used to find the dif
Novay_Z [31]

Answer: Step 1: Reverse the signs of 6x^3-2x + 3 expression.

Step 2: Removing parenthesis

Step 3: Grouping like terms

Step 4: Combing like terms

Step 5: Writing the final expression in standard form

Step-by-step explanation: First expression :6x^3-2x + 3

Second expression : -3x^3+5x^2+4x-7.

We need to subtract 6x^3-2x + 3 from -3x^3+5x^2+4x-7.

Step 1: Reverse the signs of 6x^3-2x + 3 expression.

(-3x^3+5x^2+4x-7)+(-6x3+2x-3)

Step 2: Removing parenthesis

(-3x^3) +5x^2+4x + (-7) + (-6x^3) + 2x + (-3)

Step 3: Grouping like terms

[-3x^3) + (-6x^3)] + [4x + 2x] + [(-7) + (-3)] + [5x^2]

Step 4: Combing like terms

-9x^3 + 6x + (-10) + 5x^2

Step 5: Writing the final expression in standard form

-9x^3 + 5x^2 + 6x-10

Find the area of the blue shaded region. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

173.01

Step-by-step explanation:

To area of a sector or portion of a circle is found using:

A = \frac{N}{360} \pi r^2

Substitute N = 50 and A = 27.93.

It becomes 27.93 = \frac{50}{360} \pi r^2\\27.93 = 0.139 \pi r^2\\200.94 = \pi r^2

The area of the entire circle is 200.94. The area of the blue part of the circle can be found by subtracting the red section from the entire circle.

200.94 - 27.93 = 173.01
