What 2 numbers add to get 2 and multiply to 4

Mathematics
1 answer:
rusak2 [61]3 years ago

Factor 4
4=1 times 4
2 times 2
they don't add to 2
set up equation
x+y=2
xy=4

first equation, subtract x from both sides
y=2-x
subsitute for y
x(2-x)=4
distribute
2x-x^2=4
add x^2
2x=x^2+4
subtract 2x
0=x^2-2x+4
use quadratic formula which is
if you have ax^2+bx+c=0 then
x=\frac{ -b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a} so

1x^2-2x+4=0
a=1
b=-2
c=4
x=\frac{ -(-2)+/-\sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(1)(4)} }{2(1)}
x=\frac{ 2+/-\sqrt{4-16} }{2}
x=\frac{ 2+/-\sqrt{-12} }{2}
we have \sqrt{-12} and that doesn't give a real solution
therefor there are no real solutions
but if you want to solve fully
x=\frac{ 2+/-2\sqrt{-3} }{2}
i=\sqrt{-1}
x=\frac{ 2+/-2i\sqrt{3} }{2}
x=1+/-i\sqrt{3}
x=1-i\sqrt{3} or x=1+i\sqrt{3} (those are the 2 numbers)

Determine whether the triangles are congruent. Explain your reasoning .
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

The triangles are congruent by congruency theorem SAS.

Step-by-step explanation:

Side-Angle-Side, as it suggests, is when a triangle is congruent by the order of congruent side, congruent angle, and another congruent side. If named certain ways, they can be congruent. Since the question does not provide a specific way of naming the triangles, we can assume that any way is allowed. 2.5 and 2.5 are congruent, followed by angles D and G which have the congruent angle markers. The congruent angles are followed by 1.7 and 1.7, making the triangles congruent by Side-Angle-Side.

Quality control studies for Speedy Jet Computer Printers show the lifetime of the printer follows a normal distribution with mea
Anika [276]

Answer:

About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Quality control studies for Speedy Jet Computer Printers show the lifetime of the printer follows a normal distribution with

mean \mu = 4 and standard deviation  \sigma = 0.78

If the company wishes to replace no more than 10% of the printers.

To find : How long should Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed ?

Solution :

Using Z- table,  

Z value corresponding to 10% or 0.10 = -1.28.

Applying z-score formula,

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

The value of x is given by,

x=(z\times \sigma)+\mu

Substitute the values,

x=(-1.28\times 0.78)+4

x=-0.9984+4

x=3.0016

So, approx 3 years.

Therefore, About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

Find the value of x so that the function has the given value. f(x) = 6x + 9; f(x) = 21
Olin [163]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of x so that the value of given function becomes 21 .

We have ,

f(x)=21\\\\ f(x)= 6x + 9

Now , for finding x ,

6x +9 = 21 \\\\ 6x = 21 -9 \\\\ 6x = 12 \\\\ x = 2
