Answer:

Since b^2 -4ac = 256 we have 2 real distinct root roots

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2+12x=7

We need to subtract 7 to get it in the proper form

4x^2+12x-7=7-7

4x^2+12x-7=0

The discriminant is b^2 -4ac

when the equation is ax^2 +bx+c

so a =4 b=12 and c=-7

(12)^2 - 4(4)(-7)

144 +112

256

If b^2 -4ac > 0 we have 2 real distinct roots

If b^2 -4ac = 0 we have one real root

If b^2 -4ac < 0 we have two complex root

Since b^2 -4ac = 256 we have 2 real distinct root roots

Answer:

x ≈ 42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We use tan∅ to solve this:

tanx° = 11/12

x° = $tan^{-1}(11/12)$

x = 42.5104°

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem use 3.14 for , and any non-integer answers should be entered as decimals rounded to the hundredths place. Lannon is designing a carnival game for a school event. She has a large wooden square and she needs to cut out a circle from the middle. The circumference of the circle that she plans to cut out is 56.52 inches. What is the radius

The formula for circumference of a circle = 2πr

Circumference = 56.52 inches

r = Circumference/2π

r = 56.52/2π

What is the simplified expression for,

Nostrana [21]

Here are a few rules you need to know for this equation:

Multiplying exponents of the same base: $x^m\times x^n=x^{m+n}$
Dividing exponents of the same base: $\frac{x^m}{x^n}=x^{m-n}$
Turning a negative exponent to a positive one: $x^{-m}=\frac{1}{x^m};\frac{1}{x^{-m}}=x^m$
