Move constant to other side
add 1
4c^2-8c=1
divide by 4 to make leading coeficient 1
c^2-2c=1/4
take 1/2 of linear coeficient and square it
-2/2=-1, (-1)^2=1
add that to both sides
c^2-2c+1=1/4+1
factor perfect squaer and add
(c-1)^2=5/4
square root both sides
c-1=+/-(√5)/2
add 1
c=1+/-(√5)/2

c=2.12 or -0.12

Find two consecutive odd integers whose product is 99
Illusion [34]
Let x be the first odd number.

Second odd number will be x+2

Proof:

If 3 (was) the first odd number, 3+2 would be the next which is 5.

So,

(x) (x+2) = 99
xsquare + 2x = 99
xsquare +2x - 99 = 0
xsquare +11x - 9x -99 = 0
x(x +11) -9(x + 11) = 0
(x+11) (x-9) = 0

So the two odd numbers were 9 and 11

A polynomial function upper P left parenthesis x right parenthesis with rational coefficients has the given roots. Find two addi
mylen [45]

Given that a polynomial function P(x) has rational coefficients.

Two roots are already given which are i and 7+8i,

Now we have to find two additional roots of P(x)=0

Given roots i and 7+8i are complex roots and we know that complex roots always occur in conjugate pairs so that means conjugate of given roots will also be the roots.

conjugate of a+bi is given by a-bi

So using that logic, conjugate of i is i

also conjugate of 7+8i is 7-8i

Hence final answer for the remaining roots are (-i) and (7-8i).

A civil engineer is designing a public parking lot for the new town hall. The number of cars in each row should be six less than
alisha [4.7K]

The equation which the civil engineer can use to find the number of rows is 2x² - 12x = 112. Option D

<h3>How to determine the equation</h3>

Let the number of rows be x

Number of cars in each row = x - 6 = 56

Number of rows for parking lot = 2x

Then,

Number of cars for new parking lot = 2x ( x - 6 = 56)

Expand the expression,

2 ( x - 6 = 56)

2x² - 12x = 112

Thus, the equation which the civil engineer can use to find the number of rows is 2x² - 12x = 112. Option D

How do you know if a graph you are looking at shows a periodic function? How do you determine the period of the graph?
mylen [45]

Answer:

A function f(x) is said to be periodic, if there exists a positive real number T such that f(x+T) = f(x).

You can also just say: A periodic function is one that repeats itself in regular intervals.

Step-by-step explanation:

The smallest value of T is called the period of the function.

Note: If the value of T is independent of x then f(x) is periodic, and if T is dependent, then f(x) is non-periodic.

For example, here's the graph of sin x.  [REFER TO PICTURE BELOW]

Sin x is a periodic function with period  2π  because  sin(x+2π)=sinx  

Other examples of periodic functions are all trigonometric ratios, fractional x (Denoted by {x} which has period 1) and others.

In order to determine the period of the determined graph however, just know that the period of the sine curve is the length of one cycle of the curve. The natural period of the sine curve is 2π. So, a coefficient of b=1 is equivalent to a period of 2π. To get the period of the sine curve for any coefficient b, just divide 2π by the coefficient b to get the new period of the curve.

Hopefully this helped a bit.
