Solve the quadratic equation. 2x2 + 35 = 17x

1 answer:

8 0

Get it to equal 0

minus 17x from both sides

2x²-17x+35=0

tricky part
get something like
(2x-a)(x-b)
we know the signs are negative since the middle term is negative and last term is positive

so a and b are either 1 and 35 or 5 and 7

(2x-1)(x-35), nope
(2x-35)(x-1) nope
(2x-5)(x-7), nope
(2x-7)(x-5), yep

(2x-7)(x-5)=0
set to zero
2x-7=0
2x=7
x=7/2

x-5=0
x=5

x=7/2 and 5

Answer:

ok so you see the equation at the top... you are going to "plug in" the number in the "in" row to get the "out number

Step-by-step explanation:

example

in: 4

-2(-4)+1

8+1

so for the out row under -4 you would put 9

-2(-3)+1

6+1

so for the out row under 3 you would put 7

Find f(x) and g(x) so the function can be expressed as y = f(g(x)).

DanielleElmas [232]

$\bf \begin{cases}
f(x)=\cfrac{8}{x}+4\\\\
g(x)=x^2
\end{cases}\qquad f(\ g(x)\ )=\cfrac{8}{\underline{g(x)}}+4\implies f(\ g(x)\ )=\cfrac{8}{\underline{x^2}}+4$

Find the volume of each figure. Round your answers to the nearest hundredth, if necessary

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

666.67π .ft^3

here's your solution

=> radius of cone = 10 ft

=> height of cone = 20 ft

=> volume of cone = πr^2h/3

=> putting the value of radius and height

=> volume = 10^2*20/3π

=> volume = 666.67π .ft^3

hope it helps

The ABC company's brand has a market share of 30%. Suppose that in a survey, 800 consumers of the product are asked which brand

Anna007 [38]

Answer: 0.68

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

ABC market share = 30%

number of customers surveyed = 800

probability that more than 32% prefers ABC

Solution:

32% of 800

= 256 persons

p ( x ≥ 256 )

= 1 - ( 256/800 )

= 1 - 0.32

= 0.68

the probabiliy that more than 32% of those who carried out the survey would prefer ABC brand is 0.68.
