Answer:

k =  4 + 5.10i ,  4 - 5.10i

Step-by-step explanation:

8k - k^2 = 42

k^2 - 8k + 42 = 0

Completing the square:-

(k - 4)^2 - 16 +42 = 0

(k - 4)^2 = -26

k- 4 = +/-sqrt26

k = 4 + sqrt26 or 4 - sqrt26

k =  4 + 5.10i ,  4 - 5.10i

Keri is making a doll clothes for a holiday craft show. The wholesale cost of the materials for one outfit is $9.38. If she sell
irinina [24]

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

If I get you right, you're asking for the percentage gain to the nearest percentage, right?

Now to do this, we need to get the amount of profit she made. That's quite easy, we only need to subtract the cost price from the selling price. And that equals $15 - $9.38 that equals $5.62.

Now, we divide this value by the cost price and multiply by 100% to get the percentage gain.

I.e 5.62/9.38 × 100%.

That gives 59.9% , which equals 60% when approximated to the nearest percentage.

What is the function rule for the line?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
So with these equations we need to find the y-intercept and the slope because:

y = mx+b

y = f(×)

b = y-intercept

m = slope (slope = rise/run, rise over run)

rise is y-axis
run is x-axis

The y-intercept is (0,-2)
So now we know that one of the answers must have -2 in it

b = -2

m= rise/run = -2/3

The answer is:

f(x) = - \frac{2 }{3 } x - 2

12What mistake did the student make when solvingtheir two-step equation?(a)b) If correctly solved what should the value of be?
mixas84 [53]

Given the equation:

\frac{x}{6}+3=-18

(a) You can identify that the student applied the Subtraction Property of Equality by subtraction 3 from both sides of the equation:

\frac{x}{6}+3-(3)=-18-(3)

However, the student made a mistake when adding the numbers on the right side.

Since you have two numbers with the same sign on the right side of the equation, you must add them, not subtract them and use the same sign in the result. Then, the steps to add them are:

- Add their Absolute values (their values without the negative sign).

- Write the sum with the negative sign.

Then:

\frac{x}{6}=-21

(b) The correct procedure is:

1. Apply the Subtraction Property of Equality by subtracting 3 from both sides (as you did in the previous part):

\begin{gathered} \frac{x}{6}+3-(3)=-18-(3) \\  \\ \frac{x}{6}=-21 \end{gathered}

2. Apply the Multiplication Property of Equality by multiplying both sides of the equation by 6:

\begin{gathered} (6)(\frac{x}{6})=(-21)(6) \\  \\ x=-126 \end{gathered}

Hence, the answers are:

(a) The student made a mistake by adding the numbers -18 and -3:

-18-3=-15\text{ (False)}

(b) The value of "x" should be:

x=-126
