Answer:

Remember, for solve the quadratic equation

ax^2+bx+c=0

we use the quadratic formula

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

We have the equation 3x+8=9x^2 since a must be 9 then we pass the entire left side of the equation to the right side. We get the equation:

3x+8=9x^2\\8=9x^2-3x\\0=9x^2-3x-8

Then, observe that a=9 and b=-3

An illusionist needs up to 10 volunteers for a show. She needs no fewer than 4 female volunteers. Let x represent the number of
Sliva [168]

The <em><u>correct answers</u></em> are:

B- x + y ≤ 10 ; and D- x ≥ 4

Explanation:

The illusionist needs at least 4 female volunteers.  This means he could use 4 or more; this means x, the number of female volunteers, is greater than or equal to 4:

x ≥ 4

The total of number of volunteers needed is up to 10.  This means the illusionist can use 10 or fewer people; this means the total is less than or equal to 10.

The number of female volunteers is x and the number of male volunteers is y; together they create the expression x+y.  This gives us

x+y ≤ 10

3/4 x 3 2/5 - 5/5(find the value of each of the following) ​
Triss [41]

The value of the given expression is \frac{-13}{20}.

Solution:

Given expression is \frac{3}{4} \times3\frac{2}{5}-\frac{5}{5}.

Let us first convert mixed fraction into improper fraction.

3\frac{2}{5}=\frac{(3\times5)+2}{5}=\frac{17}{5}

Substitute this in the given expression.

\frac{3}{4} \times3\frac{2}{5}-\frac{5}{5}=\frac{3}{4} \times\frac{7}{15}-\frac{5}{5}

                  =\frac{21}{60}-\frac{5}{5}

To simplify the above expression, 21 and 60 are cancelled by 3.

                 =\frac{7}{20}-\frac{1}{1}

Do cross multiplication to make the denominator same.

                 =\frac{7}{20}-\frac{20}{20}

                 =\frac{7-20}{20}

                 =\frac{-13}{20}

The value of the given expression is \frac{-13}{20}.
