What are the solutions to the quadratic equation 5x2 + 60x = 0?

2 answers:

Reptile [31]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:

It's A.

Step-by-step explanation:

5x2 + 60x = 0

5x is the GCF so:

5x(x + 12 ) = 0

5x = 0, x + 12 = 0

x =0, x = -12.

Answer:

The correct option is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

$5x^2+60x=0$

Taking out the common factors.

$5x(x+12)=0$

Using zero product property, equate each factor equal to 0.

$5x=0\Rightarrow x=0$

$x+12=0\Rightarrow x=-12$

The solutions of the given equations are x=0 and x=-12.

Therefore the correct option is 1.

Answer:

so, i have a method of multiplying fractions, but im not going to strait give you the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the whole number (1) by the denominator (3) and then add it to the numerator (1).

you multiply the fractions from there.

this is a very fun way of doing fraction multiplying with mixed numbers!

have a good day! :D

Find the 13th term of the arithmetic sequence -3x – 1,42 + 4,112 + 9, ...

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The 13th term is 81<em>x</em> + 59.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the arithmetic sequence:

$\displaystle -3x -1, \, 4x +4, \, 11x + 9 \dots$

And we want to find the 13th term.

Recall that for an arithmetic sequence, each subsequent term only differ by a common difference <em>d</em>. In other words:

$\displaystyle \underbrace{-3x - 1}_{x_1} + d = \underbrace{4x + 4} _ {x_2}$

Find the common difference by subtracting the first term from the second:

$d = (4x+4) - (-3x - 1)$

Distribute:

$d = (4x + 4) + (3x + 1)$

Combine like terms. Hence:

$d = 7x + 5$

The common difference is (7<em>x</em> + 5).

To find the 13th term, we can write a direct formula. The direct formula for an arithmetic sequence has the form:

$\displaystyle x_n = a + d(n-1)$

Where <em>a</em> is the initial term and <em>d</em> is the common difference.

The initial term is (-3<em>x</em> - 1) and the common difference is (7<em>x</em> + 5). Hence:

$\displaystyle x_n = (-3x - 1) + (7x+5)(n-1)$

To find the 13th term, let <em>n</em> = 13. Hence:

$\displaystyle x_{13} = (-3x - 1) + (7x + 5)((13)-1)$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}x_{13} &= (-3x-1) + (7x+5)(12) \\ &= (-3x - 1) +(84x + 60) \\ &= 81x + 59 \end{aligned}$

The 13th term is 81<em>x</em> + 59.

The following results come from two independent random samples taken of two populations.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

$(a)\ \bar x_1 - \bar x_2 = 2.0$

$(b)\ CI =(1.0542,2.9458)$

$(c)\ CI = (0.8730,2.1270)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n_1 = 60$ $n_2 = 35$

$\bar x_1 = 13.6$ $\bar x_2 = 11.6$

$\sigma_1 = 2.1$ $\sigma_2 = 3$

Solving (a): Point estimate of difference of mean

This is calculated as: $\bar x_1 - \bar x_2$

$\bar x_1 - \bar x_2 = 13.6 - 11.6$

$\bar x_1 - \bar x_2 = 2.0$

Solving (b): 90% confidence interval

We have:

$c = 90\%$

$c = 0.90$

Confidence level is: $1 - \alpha$

$1 - \alpha = c$

$1 - \alpha = 0.90$

$\alpha = 0.10$

Calculate $z_{\alpha/2}$

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.10/2}$

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.05}$

The z score is:

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.05} =1.645$

The endpoints of the confidence level is:

$(\bar x_1 - \bar x_2) \± z_{\alpha/2} * \sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}$

$2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{2.1^2}{60}+\frac{3^2}{35}}$

$2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{4.41}{60}+\frac{9}{35}}$

$2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{0.0735+0.2571}$

$2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{0.3306}$

$2.0 \± 0.9458$

Split

$(2.0 - 0.9458) \to (2.0 + 0.9458)$

$(1.0542) \to (2.9458)$

Hence, the 90% confidence interval is:

$CI =(1.0542,2.9458)$

Solving (c): 95% confidence interval

We have:

$c = 95\%$

$c = 0.95$

Confidence level is: $1 - \alpha$

$1 - \alpha = c$

$1 - \alpha = 0.95$

$\alpha = 0.05$

Calculate $z_{\alpha/2}$

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.05/2}$

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.025}$

The z score is:

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.025} =1.96$

The endpoints of the confidence level is:

$(\bar x_1 - \bar x_2) \± z_{\alpha/2} * \sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}$

$2.0 \± 1.96 * \sqrt{\frac{2.1^2}{60}+\frac{3^2}{35}}$

$2.0 \± 1.96* \sqrt{\frac{4.41}{60}+\frac{9}{35}}$

$2.0 \± 1.96 * \sqrt{0.0735+0.2571}$

$2.0 \± 1.96* \sqrt{0.3306}$

$2.0 \± 1.1270$

Split

$(2.0 - 1.1270) \to (2.0 + 1.1270)$

$(0.8730) \to (2.1270)$

Hence, the 95% confidence interval is:

$CI = (0.8730,2.1270)$
