Solve the inequality 2x2 + 10x < –8

Mathematics
1 answer:
BigorU [14]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

-4<x<-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, we divide the whole expression by 2:

2x^2 + 10x < –8 → x^2 + 5x < –4

→  x^2 + 5x + 4 < 0

Factorizing

→ (x+4)(x+1) < 0

The expression is ONLY negative when:

x>-4 and x<-1

Therefore, the solution is:

-4<x<-1

The cat is 12 feet above the ground and the ladder is 9 feet away from the tree because of the mud. How long does the ladder nee
marin [14]

Answer:

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder is the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with the legs being 9 ft and 12 ft long (see the picture).

To solve for the length of the ladder, use the Pythagorean Theorem.

9^{2} +12^{2} =c^{2} \\c=\sqrt{9^{2} +12^{2}} \\c=\sqrt{81+144} \\c=\sqrt{225} \\c=15

You can walk 3 miles per hour, jog 5 miles per hour, or run 10 miles per hour. You go a full hour before changing pace. At the e
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

b. How many ways arc there to go 12 miles?

≡ p(12) = 25

c. How many ways arc there to go 20 miles?

≡ p(20) = 131

d. How many ways arc there to go 22 miles?

≡p(22)  199

Step-by-step explanation:

a) supposed you walked for the first hour. Then you would have travelled 3 miles. if you jogged you would have covered 5miles and if you run you would have covered 10miles. now you have to decide how to run the rest miles from the n miles.

Thus, the number of ways one can cover n miles will be given by the recurrence relation

p(n) = p( n-3) + p( n-5) + p( n - 10)

now to solve the rest of the question, let us make a table which provides the number of ways for n = 1  to 22.

check the attachment for the table

b. How many ways arc there to go 12 miles?

≡ p(12) = 25

c. How many ways arc there to go 20 miles?

≡ p(20) = 131

d. How many ways arc there to go 22 miles?

≡p(22)  199
