7 0

Answer:

x = - 7, x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 9x + 14 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 14) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 9)

The factors are + 7 and + 2, since

7 × 2 = 14 and 7 + 2 = 9, thus

(x + 7)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

The vertices of a parallelogram are A(x1, y1), B(x2, y2), C(x3, y3), and D(x4, y4). Which of the following must be true if paral
Iteru [2.4K]

The answer is really none of the above, because all of these have divisions by difference in x, and there are perfectly fine rectangles where those will mean dividing by zero.

To do the problem the way they want us to, we note segments with the same slope are parallel (or collinear); segments with slopes which multiply to -1 are perpendicular.

Let's figure out what each choice is trying to tell us by translating it into parallel and perpendicular. Remember A is point 1, ...

A. ((y_4-y_3)/(x_4-x_3)= (y_3-y_2)/(x_3-x_2)) and ((y_4-y_3)/(x_4-x_3)×(y_3-y_2)/(x_3-x_2))=-1

translated, that's CD║BC and CD⊥BC - contradictory; second half right

B. (y_4-y_3)/(x_4-x_3)= (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) and ((y_4-y_3)/(x_4-x_3)×(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1))=-1

CD ║ AB and CD ⊥ AB - only the parallelogram half is right

C. (y_4-y_3)/(x_4-x_3)= (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) and (y_4-y_3)/(x_4-x_3)×(y_3-y_2)/(x_3-x_2)=-1

CD║AB and CD⊥BC - that's TRUE

D. (y_4-y_3)/(x_4-x_3)= (y_3-y_1)/(x_3-x_1) and (y_4-y_3)/(x_4-x_3)×(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=-1

CD║AC and CD⊥AB - nope

Answer: C

The way I'd get the proper expression is with the dot product.

A parallelogram is a rectangle when adjacent sides are perpendicular. It only takes one right angle to make them all right.

Two sides are perpendicular when the dot product of their direction vectors is zero. All the answers have y_4 - y_3 so one side is CD. The other side must be BC or AD; AD would give y_4 - y_1 terms which don't appear among the answer, so let's go with BC.

The direction vectors are

D-C = (x_4 - x_3, y_4 - y_3)

C-B = (x_3 - x_2, y_3 - y_2)

For perpendicularity we need a zero dot product:

0 = (D-C)\cdot(C-B) = (x_4 - x_3)(x_3 - x_2) + (y_4 - y_3)(y_3 - y_2)

- (x_4 - x_3)(x_3 - x_2) = (y_4 - y_3)(y_3 - y_2)

That's the correct expression, given it's a parallelogram, to demonstrate it's a rectangle. The divisions make it iffy.

The obtained answers for the given frequency distribution are:

(a) The formula for the mean in sigma notation is \bar x =\frac{1}{n}  \sum X_i where n is the number of observations; X_i are the n observations.

The mean for the given monthly plan price is $16.1.

(b) The frequency distribution for given data is {$9.99 - 2; $10 - 5; $12 - 1; $12.75 - 2; $14.99 - 6; $20 - 4; $25 - 5}

(c) The formula for the mean using the frequency distribution table is \bar x = \frac{1}{N}\sum f_ix_i where N =\sum f_i and on applying this formula for the given data, the mean is $16.1.

(d) The median for the given data is m_e = 14.99, and the mode for the given data is $14.99

<h3>What are the mean, median, and mode for a frequency distribution?</h3>

The frequency distribution has sample observations x_i and frequencies f_i.

Then, the mean is calculated by

\bar x = \frac{1}{N}\sum f_ix_i

Where N =\sum f_i (Sum of frequencies)

The median is calculated by

m_e=\left \{ {{x_{k}} \ if \ n = 2k+1 \atop {\frac{x_{k}+x_{k+1}}{2}} \ if \ n =2k} \right.

The mode is calculated by

Mode = highest frequency value

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

The given list of data is

{$14.99, $12.75, $14.99, $14.99, $9.99, $25, $25, $10, $14.99, $10, $20, $10, $20, $14.99, $10, $25, $20, $12, $14.99, $25, $25, $20, $12.75, $10, $9.99}

(a) Formula for the mean using sigma notation and use it to calculate the mean:

The formula for the mean is

\bar x =\frac{1}{n}  \sum X_i

Where n = 25; X_i - n observations

On substituting,

Mean \bar x

=1/25(14.99+12.75+14.99+14.99+9.99+25+25+10+14.99+10+20+10+20+14.99+10+25+20+12+14.99+25+25+20+12.75+10+9.99)

= 1/25(402.42)

= 16.09 ≅ 16.1

(b) Constructing a frequency distribution for the data:

Cost - frequency - cumulative frequency

$9.99 - 2 - 2

$10 - 5 - 7

$12 - 1 - 8

$12.75 - 2 - 10

$14.99 - 6 - 16

$20 - 4 - 20

$25 - 5 - 25

Sum of frequencies N = 25;

(c) Using frequency distribution, calculating the mean:

The formula for finding the mean using frequency distribution is

\bar x = \frac{1}{N}\sum f_ix_i

Where N = 25;

On substituting,

\bar x<em> </em>= 1/25 (2 × 9.99 + 5 × 10 + 1 × 12 + 2 × 12.75 + 6 × 14.99 + 4 × 20 + 5 × 25)

  = 1/25 (402.42)

  = 16.09 ≅ 16.1

Therefore, the mean is the same as the mean obtained in option (a).

(d) Calculating the median and the mode:

Since N = 25(odd) i.e., 2· 12 + 1; k = (12 + 1)th term = 13th term

So,  the median m_e = 14.99. (frequency at 13th term)

Since the highest frequency is 6 occurred by the cost is $14.99,

Mode = 14.99
