If you multiply or divide by a positive number the inequality sign DOES NOT CHANGE!

If you multiply or divide by a negative number the inequality sign flips around and becomes the opposite.

When the solution of x2 − 9x − 6 is expressed as 9 plus or minus the square root of r, all over 2, what is the value of r? x equ
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

r = 105

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic equation:

x² − 9x − 6

Quadratic formula is given by:

(-b ± √b² - 4ac) ÷ 2a

For the equation: x² - 9x - 6

a = 1, b = -9 and c = -6

Substitute in the quadratic formula:

(-b ± √b² - 4ac) ÷ 2a

(-(-9) ± √(-9)² - 4(1*-6)) ÷ 2*1

= 9 ± √105 / 2

The solution of x² − 9x − 6 is expressed as 9 plus or minus the square root of r, all over 2

Therefore, the value of r is 105

An example of consecutive odd integers is 23, 25, 27, and 29. Find four consecutive odd integers with a sum of 160. Show your wo
Andrew [12]
Step1: Define an odd integer.
Define the first odd integer as (2n + 1), for n = 0,1,2, ...,
Note that n is an integer that takes values 0,1,2, and so no.

Step 2: Create four consecutive odd integers.
Multiplying n by 2 guarantees that 2n will be zero or an even number.
Therefore (2n + 1) is guaranteed to be an odd number.
By adding 2 to the odd integer (2n+1), the next number (2n+3) will also be an odd integer.

Let the four consecutive odd integers be
2n+1, 2n +3, 2n +5, 2n +7 

Step 3: require that the four consecutive integers sum to 160.
Because the sum of the four consecutive odd integers is 160, therefore
2n+1 + 2n+3 + 2n+5 + 2n +7 = 160
8n + 16 = 160
8n = 144
n = 18

Because 2n = 36, the four consecutive odd integers are 37, 39, 41, 43.

Answer: 37,39,41,43

If only half as much milk is used each day, after how many days will more milk need to be purchased?
nordsb [41]
If you are using half as much milk every day, you'll never run out because you'll just keep using half as much. You still won't run out with the coffee shop problem or the refrigerator problem.

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Let x rep the lenght of the shorter one

Then the longer one is 2x+1

Therefore

(2x+1) + x = 16

We now solve for x

2x + 1 + x = 16

Group and evaluate like terms

3x +1 = 16

3x = 16 -1

× = 15/3

x = 5

So the shorter one is 5 ft

The longer one is 2(5)+1= 11

The ability to find a job after graduation is very important to GSU students as it is to the students at most colleges and unive
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula

p +/- z* √(p(1-p) / n)

Where p is sample proportion = 3226/3957 = 0.8153, n = 3957 and z* is 2.576

0.8153 + (2.576 √(0.8153(1-0.8153) / 3957))

0.8153 + (2.576 √ (0.8153(0.1847) /3957)

0.8513 + (2.576 √(0.1572/3957)

0.8513 + (2.576 √0.00003974)

0.8513 + 2.576(0.0063)

0.8513 + 0.016

0.8670 ~ 87%

For the lower interview

0.8513 - 0.016

= 0.8353 ~ 84%

Thus, at 99% confidence interval is 84% and 87%
