Find the values of a b and c for which the quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0 has the solutions -3 and 1

1 answer:

7 0

It may be easier to start from

.. a(x +3)(x -1) = 0
.. a(x^2 +2x -3) = 0

The quadratic
.. ax^2 +bx +c = 0 will have solutions -3 and 1 for ...

.. a ≠ 0
.. b = 2a
.. c = -3a

What is the constant of proportionality of y to x?

AleksAgata [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

2.5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given a graph with a positive slope where the value of y increases when the value of x increases.

For the given graph, we are to find the constant of proportionality of y to x which is the slope of the given line.

We know the formula of the slope = $\frac{y_2-y_1} {x_2-x_1}$

Substituting the given values in the formula:

$\frac{15-10}{6-4} = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5$

Doss [256]

Answer:

V = 3591.4 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of Sphere = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

Where r = 9.5 cm

V = $\frac{4}{3} (3.14)(9.5)^3$

V = $\frac{4}{3} (3.14)(857.4)$

V = $\frac{10774}{3}$

V = 3591.4 cm³
