The slope is rise over run. The ski run drops 5, so it would be -5, and the horizontal change of 20 would be the run, so you'd get -5 over 20 then you divide both by 5 and you get your answer of -1 over 4.

1.) Find the value of the discriminant and the the number of real solutions of

ruslelena [56]

Hi there!

When we have an equation standard form...
$a {x}^{2} + bx + c = 0$
...the formula of the discriminant is
D = b^2 - 4ac

When
D > 0 we have two real solutions
D = 0 we have one real solutions
D < 0 we don't have real solutions

1.) Find the value of the discriminant and the the number of real solutions of
x^2-8x+7=0

Plug in the values from the equation into the formula of the discriminant

$( - 8) {}^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times 7 = 64 - 28 = 36$

D > 0 and therefore we have two real solutions.

2.) Find the value of the discriminant and the number of real solutions of
2x^2+4x+2=0

Again, plug in the values from the equation into the formula of the discriminant.

${4}^{2} - 4 \times 2 \times 2 = 16 - 16 = 0$

D = 0 and therefore we have one real solution.

~ Hope this helps you.

Volume of sphere Marcus is using small stone spheres

satela [25.4K]

<h2>Volume of Sphere</h2>

1. What is the radius of the stone sphere?

- To know what is the radius divide is by 2.

$\large \tt 6 \div 2 = 3$

Therefore, the radius of the stone sphere is 3in

2. What is the volume of the stone sphere?

- Using the formula in finding the Volume of Sphere $\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$ to get the answer. Where the volume of the sphere is $\tt\frac{4}{3}\:\:\:\:\pi$ multiplied by the cube of the radius.

$\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$
$\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times 3in^3$
$\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times 27in$
$\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\times 84.78in$
$\tt V = \frac{339.12in}{3}$
$\tt V = 113.04in^3$

Therefore, the volume of the stone sphere is 113.04in³

3. Another stone sphere for the garden has a diameter of 10 inches. What is the volume of the stone sphere? Use 3.14 for <em>π</em>, and round to the nearest hundredth.

- Using the formula in finding the Volume of Sphere $\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$ to get the answer. Where the volume of the sphere is $\tt\frac{4}{3}\:\:\:\:\pi$ multiplied by the cube of the radius.

$\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$
$\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times 5in^3$
$\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times 125in$
$\tt V = \frac{4}{3}\times 392.5in$
$\tt V = \frac{1570in}{3}$
$\tt V = 523.33in^3$

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Therefore, the volume of the stone sphere is 523.33in³
