the product of the zeros of the quadratic polynomial 2x square _3x _5c is 1by2 which of the following is the value of c​

Mathematics
1 answer:
tatyana61 [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

c = - \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the zeros = \frac{c}{a} = \frac{1}{2}

Given

2x² - 3x - 5c

with a = 2 and c = - 5c , then

\frac{-5c}{2} = \frac{1}{2} ( cross- multiply )

- 10c = 2 ( divide both sides by - 10 )

c = \frac{2}{-10} = - \frac{1}{5}

The ratio of the measure of the acute angle in a right triangle is 1/2 . Find the measures of the two angles
AleksandrR [38]

30° and 60°.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

We will solve the problem of the measures of angles in the triangle.

Recall this condition:

  • The acute angle ⇒ an angle of less than 90°.
  • The right angle ⇒ an angle of exactly 90°.
  • A right triangle ⇒ a triangle in which one angle is a right angle.
  • The interior angles ⇒ the angles inside a triangle.
  • All the interior angles in a triangle , i.e., \boxed{ \ \angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^0 \ }

<u>Given that:</u>

The ratio of the measure of the acute angle in a right triangle is ¹/₂.

<u>Question:</u>

Find the measures of the two angles.

<u>The Process:</u>

We call it the triangle ABC. An interior angle inside is a right angle, e.g., ∠A = 90°.

From the ratio of two other acute angles, i.e., 1: 2, we call it ∠B = x and ∠C = 2x.

Let's arrange the three angles in ABC triangle as follows:

\boxed{ \ 90^0 + x + 2x = 180^0 \ }

Both sides subtracted by 90°.

\boxed{ \ x + 2x = 180^0 - 90^0 \ }

\boxed{ \ 3x = 90^0 \ }

Both sides divided by 3.

We get \boxed{ \ x = 30^0 \ }

We substitute the value of x back into B and C.

\boxed{\boxed{ \ \angle B = x\ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ \angle B = 30^0 \ }} \\\boxed{\boxed{ \ \angle C = 2x\ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ \angle C = 60^0 \ }}

We have succeeded in getting the measures of the two angles.

Debate the following statement: "Correlation means Causation." Determine whether this statement is true or false, and provide re
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Thats FALSE.

The concept CORRELATION not automatically means CAUSATION.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.

And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}  

Solution to the problem

Some useful concepts are:

Correlation is a statistical measure described with a number that describes the size and direction of a relationship between two or more variables. The correlation between variables, NOT mean that the change in one variable is the cause of the change in the values of the other variable.

Causation is a term refered to one event as the result of the occurrence of the other event for example, there is a causal relationship between event A and B like a cause and effect. One important thing to mention here is that the causation is not an easy concept to measure.

"The difference between the two types of relationships are easy to identify since one can be measured with a numerical value and the other no (Here is one example: smoking causes an increase in the risk of developing lung cancer), or it can correlate with another ( smoking is correlated with alcoholism, but it does not cause alcoholism)".

So is clear that the concept CORRELATION not automatically means CAUSATION.

A line is perpendicular to y = {2/3x + 2/3}
Anna35 [415]

Answer: y = (-3x/2) + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

From the standard equation y = mx + c, the slope of the equation is 2/3. Therefor slope of a line perpendicular to it will be -3/2.

Hence the equation will be

y = (-3x/2) + c

As this line passes through (-2,4), putting these values in this equation gives  c = 1.

Hence the answer is y = (-3x/2) + 1
