A graph of the equation shows the appropriate choice to be
C. 2_____
If you would rather, you can look at the value of the discriminant. For the equation y = ax²+bx+c, the discriminant (d) is
d = b²-4ac
For your equation, this evaluates to
d = (-8)²-4(2)(5) = 64 -40 =
24When the discriminant is
positive, the function has
two real roots (2 x-intercepts). When it is zero, there is only one x-intercept, and when it is negative, there are none (the roots are complex).
CENTRAL ANGLE:
<span>There are 32 passenger cars, so you want an angle equal to 1/32 of the full circle.
</span>
<span>The full circle in degrees is 360°, but you want radians. </span>
<span>The full circle in radians is 2π. </span>
<span>2π / 32 </span>
<span>= π/16 radians
</span>
<span>ARC LENGTH </span>
<span>The arc length would be 1/32 of the full circumference. I know you already asked and got answers for the full circumference. Divide that by 32.
</span>
<span>AREA OF SECTOR: </span>
<span>Ditto on this. You have the full area from a prior question. Now just divide it by 32</span>
Answer: x=7.21
Step-by-step explanation: This is a right triangle- remember the Pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c². To find leg a, you'd use a = √(c² - b²) **leg a would be the side that is labeled with 12. To find leg b, you'd use b = √(c² - a²) *this is the equation we need. To find the hypotenuse, or <em>c</em>, you'd use c = √(a² + b²). This equation works for right triangles only.
Hope this helps :)
From there we can see that because x equals both to a and b, it must be that a = b.
Let x be the yard length, then if <span>the length of the yard is 10 feet more than 2 times the width, the length of the yard is 2x+10. The perimeter is 2 lengths + 2 widths, so P=2x+2(2x+10) .
</span>
Since Sally <span>needs 56 feet of fencing to do the job, P=56 ft. and
</span>
<span>2x+2(2x+10)=56,
</span><span>
</span><span>2x+4x+20=56,
</span><span>
</span><span>6x=56-20,
</span><span>
</span><span>6x=36,
</span><span>
</span><span>x=6 ft. and 2x+10=12+10=22 ft.
</span><span>
</span><span>Answer: The length of the yard is 22 feet</span>
