Answer:

y² - (K- 2)y + 2k +1 = 0

equal roots means D=0

D= b^2 - 4ac

a=1, b= (k-2), c= 2k+1

so,

(k-2)^2 - 4(1)(2k+1) = 0

=> k^2 +4 - 8k -4 = 0

=> k^2 -8k = 0

=> k^2 = 8k

=> k= 8k/k

=> k = 8

Therefore the answer is k= 8

Hope it helps........

1. The prism-shaped roof has equilateral triangular bases. Create an equation that models the height of one of the roof's triang

Mandarinka [93]

1. Check picture 1. Let the one side of the triangle be a, drop one perpendicular, CD. Then triangle ADB is a right triangle, with hypothenuse a and one side equal to 1/2a. By the Pythegorean theorem, as shown in the picture, the height is $\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} a$

2. if a a=25 ft, then the height is $\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} a=\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} *25= \frac{1.732}{2}*25= 21. 7$ (ft)

3. consider picture 2. Let the length of the roof be l feet.

one side of the prism (the roof) is a rectangle with dimensions a and l, so the area of one side is a*l
the lateral Area of the roof is 3a*l

the area of the equilateral surfaces is $2*( \frac{1}{2} *a* \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2}a )=\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} a^{2}$

so the total area of the roof is $\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} a^{2} +3al$

4. The total area was the 2 triangular surfaces + the 3 equal lateral rectangular surfaces. Now instead of 3 lateral triangular surfaces, we have 2.
So the total area found previously will be decreased by al

5. so the area now is $\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} a^{2} +2al$

6. now a=25 and l=2a=50

Area= $\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} a^{2} +2al=\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} * 25^{2}+2*25*50=25 ^{2} (\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} +4)=625*4.866$

=3041.3 (ft squared)

Identify if the line has a positive or negative slope. Calculate the slope of the line 2y = x - 8

saul85 [17]

Answer: m = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation: To find the slope of the line, we would first put the equation in y = mx + b form to get y by itself on the left side.

So divide both sides by 2 to get y = 1/2x - 4.

Now the slope is the coefficient of the x term which is 1/2.

This is a positive slope.
