A quadratic equation is shown below: 3x^2 − 15x + 20 = 0 Part A: Describe the solution(s) to the equation by just determining th

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

These are two questions and two answers:

Question 1:

A quadratic equation is shown below: 3x^2 − 15x + 20 = 0 Part A: Describe the solution(s) to the equation by just determining the radicand. Show your work.

Answer: The negative value of the radicand means that the equation does not have real solutions.

Explanation:

1) With radicand the statement means the disciminant of the quadratic function.

2) The discriminant is: b² - 4ac, where a, b, and c are the coefficients of the quadratic equation: ax² + bx + c

3) Then, for 3x² - 15x + 20, a = 3, b = - 15, and c = 20

and the discriminant (radicand) is: (-15)² - 4(3)(20) = 225 - 240 = - 15.

4) The negative value of the radicand means that the equation does not have real solutions.

Question 2:

Part B: Solve 3x^2 + 5x − 8 = 0 by using an appropriate method. Show the steps of your work, and explain why you chose the method used.

Answer: two solutions x = 1 and x = - 8/3x

Explanation:

1) I choose factoring (you may use the quadratic formula if you prefer)

2) Factoring

Given: 3x² + 5x − 8 = 0

Make 5x = 8x - 3x: 3x² + 8x - 3x - 8 = 0

Group: (3x² - 3x) + (8x - 8) = 0

Common factors for each group: 3x(x -1) + 8(x - 1) = 0

Coomon factor x - 1: (x - 1) (3x + 8) = 0

The two solutions are for each factor equal to zero:

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1
3x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = -8/3

Those are the two solutions. x = 1 and x = - 8/3

Quadrilateral ABCD is a rhombus. Find m

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

AC = 18, EB = 5 Step-by-step explanation:In a rhombus, AE = CE, and DE = BE. However, AE or AC ≠ DE or BE.

CE = AE

= 9

AC = CE + AE

= 9 + 9

= 18

DE = BE

= 5

A certain mathematics contest has a peculiar way of giving prizes. Five people are named as Grand Prize winners, but their finis

bixtya [17]

Answer:

The number of complete award announcements possible are 19,554,575,040.

Step-by-step explanation:

Combination is the number of ways to select k items from n distinct items when the order of selection does not matters.

Whereas permutation is the number of ways to select k item from n items when order of selection matters.

The number of people entering this year is 22.

The number of ways to select 5 people for Grand Prize is, ${22\choose 5}=\frac{22!}{5!(22-5)!} =26334$ .

The remaining number of people is, 22 - 5 = 17.

It is provided that the other 5 are selected according to an order.

The number of ways to select other 5 winners is,

$^{17}P_{5}=\frac{17!}{(17-5)!} =742560$

The total number of ways to select 10 winners of 22 is:

Total number of ways = 26334 × 742560 = 19,554,575,040.
