Answer:

x = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there !

 if f(x) = 2x + 7 and f(x) = -1 =>

2x + 7 = - 1

2x = - 1 - 7

2x = - 8

x = - 8 ÷ 2

x = - 4

Good luck !

Use the discriminant to describe the roots of each equation. Then select the best description.
Marrrta [24]
Let's find the discriminant of <span>x^2+9x+14=0.  Here, a=1, b=9 and c=14.

The discriminant is b^2-4ac.  Substituting the above numeric values,
                                9^2-4(1)(14) = 81-56 = 25

The sqrt of 25 is 5.  Thus, your polynomial has two unequal, real roots.

Off the point example:  If the discriminant were zero, your poly would have two real, equal roots.</span>

Solve the quadratic equation below<br><br> x2-64=0
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

x=32

Step-by-step explanation:

first, you add 64 to both sides and you have:    x2=64

second, you divide 2 on both sides to get x by itself, so 64 divided by 2 is 32

Write an equation for a quadratic function that has x intercepts (-3, 0) and (5, 0)
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

One possible equation is f(x) = (x + 3)\, (x - 5), which is equivalent to f(x) = x^{2} - 2\, x - 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor theorem states that if x = x_{0}  (where x_{0} is a constant) is a root of a function, (x - x_{0}) would be a factor of that function.

The question states that (-3,\, 0) and (5,\, 0) are x-intercepts of this function. In other words, x = -3 and x = 5 would both set the value of this quadratic function to 0. Thus, x = -3\! and x = 5\! would be two roots of this function.

By the factor theorem, (x - (-3)) and (x - 5) would be two factors of this function.

Because the function in this question is quadratic, (x - (-3)) and (x - 5) would be the only two factors of this function. In other words, for some constant a (a \ne 0):

f(x) = a\, (x - (-3))\, (x - 5).

Simplify to obtain:

f(x) = a\, (x + 3)\, (x - 5).

Expand this expression to obtain:

f(x) = a\, (x^{2} - 2\, x - 15).

(Quadratic functions are polynomials of degree two. If this function has any factor other than (x - (-3)) and (x - 5), expanding the expression would give a polynomial of degree at least three- not quadratic.)

Every non-zero value of a corresponds to a distinct quadratic function with x-intercepts (-3,\, 0) and (5,\, 0). For example, with a = 1:

f(x) = (x + 3)\, (x - 5), or equivalently,

f(x) = x^{2} - 2\, x - 15.

TJ's Cat Food plans to use tins that are the shape of cylinders. Find the height of the tin, if its bottom diameter is 12 cm and
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

6.69 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Diameter= 12cm

Radius= 6cm

Volume= 757.36cm^3

The expression for the volume of a cylinder is

V= πr^2h

Substitute

757.36= 3.142*6^2*h

757.36=113.112h

h= 757.36/113.112

h= 6.69 cm
