Think of the Order of Operations

P(arenthesis)
E(xponents)
M(ultiplication)
D(ivision)
A(ddition)
S(ubtraction)

Solve the equations in the parenthesis first

(17-9) and (3x2)

17-9 is 8, while 3x2 is 6

You take these numbers and do whatever the sign in the middle says. In this case, it's multiplication.

8x6=48

The quadratic equation 8x²+12x-14 has two real roots. What is the sum of the squares of these roots?
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The real roots are

x=\frac{(-3+\sqrt{37})}{4} and x=\frac{(-3-\sqrt{37})}{4}

The sum of the squares of these roots is \frac{-3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is 8x^2+12x-14 has two real roots.

To find the roots .

8x^2+12x-14=0

Dividing the above equation by 2

\frac{1}{2}(8x^2+12x-14)=\frac{0}{2}

4x^2+6x-7=0

For quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0 the solution is x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Where a and b are coefficents of x^2 and x respectively, c is a constant.

For given quadratic equation

a=4, b=6, c=-7

x=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{6^2-4(4)(-7)}}{2(4)}

=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{36+112}}{8}

=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{148}}{8}

=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{37\times 4}}{8}

=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{37}\times\sqrt{4}}{8}

=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{37}\times 2}{8}

=2\frac{(-3\pm\sqrt{37})}{8}

=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{37}}{4}

x=\frac{(-3\pm\sqrt{37})}{4}

The real roots are

x=\frac{(-3+\sqrt{37})}{4} and x=\frac{(-3-\sqrt{37})}{4}

Now to find the sum of the squares of these roots

\left[\frac{-3+\sqrt{37}}{4}+\frac{(-3-\sqrt{37})}{4}\right]^2=\frac{-3+\sqrt{37}-3-\sqrt{37}}{4}

=\frac{-6}{4}

=\frac{-3}{2}

\left[\frac{-3+\sqrt{37}}{4}+\frac{(-3-\sqrt{37})}{4}\right]^2=\frac{-3}{2}

Therefore the sum of the squares of these roots is \frac{-3}{2}

The following division is being performed using multiplication by the reciprocal. Find the missing numbers.
konstantin123 [22]
To find the missing values you need to understand that the reciprocal is the fraction that is created when you invert (flip) The fraction.

Using this we actually have the missing values in the other fraction.

Please see the attached picture for the 3 missing values. They are in the boxes.

72 is 40% of what number?
Tanya [424]
All you have to do to find what number a certain number is a certain percentage of is to divide the known number by the percentage that it is reduced by.
To do this, we must first convert the percentage into a decimal. To do this, we can either divide the percentage by 100, or (my personal shortcut) just shift the decimal point over two places to the left.

40% = 0.4

Now, we divide the known by the percentage/decimal.

72 / 0.4 = 180

72 is 40% of 180.
Hope that helped! =)

Philomena put some money in a 1-year CD that compounds interest monthly, and she made $14.06 in interest the first month. If the
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Philomena would make more than $14.06 interest in the second month

Step-by-step explanation:

We are not told how much Philomena put initially, but what we are told is that she has more now as she has been making interests.

This means that if the percent interest remains the same, the amount will definitely have to be more.

For example, let's say we had $10 and we had 10% interest that means we now add $1 to make $11. Since we now have $11, 10 percent of that is $1.1. so now we have $11 + $1.1 = $12.1 which is more than $11.

Thus,Philomena would make more than $14.06 interest in the second month.

Twelve athletes are running a race. A gold medal is to be given to the winner, a silver medal is to be given to the second-place
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

1320

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Total number of athelets are running in race=12

Total number of medals =3

We have to find the total possible number of ways can the 3 medals be distributed.

Total number of ways for choosen gold medal=12

Number of ways for choosen silver medal=11

Number of ways for choosen Bronze medal=10

Total number of possible ways=12\times 11\times 10=1320

Hence, total number of possible ways in which  3 medals be distributed=1320
