snow_lady [41]3 years ago

Answer:

The quadratic equation has two complex solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

x^{2}=4x-5  

Equate to cero

x^{2}-4x+5=0  

so

a=1\\b=-4\\c=5

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{4(+/-)\sqrt{-4^{2}-4(1)(5)}} {2(1)}

x=\frac{4(+/-)\sqrt{16-20}} {2}

x=\frac{4(+/-)\sqrt{-4}} {2}

Remember that

i^{2}=-1

so

x=\frac{4(+/-)2i} {2}

x=2(+/-)i

therefore

The quadratic equation has two complex solutions

jason runs 440 yards in 75 seconds.At this rate how many minutes does it take him to run a mile? (1 mile = 1,760 yards)​
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: 5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1760 yards are in a mile. We can convert the given info into a proportion. 440/75 = 1760/x, where x is the number of seconds it takes to run a mile. Cross-multiply to get 440x = 75*1760. Divide both sides by 440 to get x = 75*4 = 300 seconds. The problem asks for how many minutes so you have to convert 300 seconds to minutes. To do this, we have to divide 300 by 60 to get 5 minutes.

Can y’all help me pls

Answer:

2. The change in expected height for every one additional centimeter of femur length.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1. The expected height for someone with a femur length of 65 centimeters.</u>

<em>Doesn't make sense, that would be height value when centimeters = 65.</em>

<u>2</u><u><em>. </em></u><u>The change in expected height for every one additional centimeter of femur length.</u>

<em>Makes sense, for every increase in one additional centimeter, we can expect the height to be proportional to the slope.</em>

<u>3. The femur length for someone with an expected height of 2.5 centimeters.</u>

<em>Doesn't make sense, the linear relationship relies on the femur length to get the height.</em>

<u>4. The change in expected femur length for every one additional centimeter of height.</u>

<em>Doesn't make sense, again, the linear relationship relies on the femur length.</em>
