Solve the equation p^2 + 2p - 8 = 0 using quadratic formula​

Mathematics
1 answer:
padilas [110]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

p = 2        p = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the solution for p^2+2p-8=0

using the Quadratic Formula where

a = 1, b = 2, c = -8

p = -b ±√(b^2 - 4ac)/2a

p = -2±√(2^2 - 4(1)(-8))/2(1)

p = -2±√(4 - (-32))/2

p = -2±√(36)/2

The discriminant b^2 - 4ac > 0

So, there are two roots.

Simplifying the radical

p = -2±6/2

p = -2+6/2 = 2

and

p = -2-6/2 = -4

Verify that f and g are inverses functions using composition , show your steps
pshichka [43]

Answer:

See explanations below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the functions

f(x) = 12x - 12

g(x) = x/12 - 1

To show they are inverses, we, must show that f(g(x)) = g(f(x))

f(g(x)) = f(x/12 - 1)

Replace x with x/12 - 1 into f(x)

f(g(x)) =12((x-12)/12) - 11

f(g(x)) =  x-1 - 1

f(g(x)) =x - 2

Similarly for g(f(x))

g(f(x)) = g(12x-12)

g(f(x)) =(12x-12)/12 - 1

12(x-1)/12 - 1

x-1 - 1

x - 2

Since f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x -2, hence they are inverses of each other

Least common denominator of 6/7 and 5/14
Darya [45]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

You can‘t simplify 5/14 because 5 is a prime number. So, now you have to convert the 6/7 to 12/14 to match it up to 5/14. They now have a common denominator of 14.

Hope this helps! :)
