Factor the quadratic expression in the equation y=2x^2+28x+96 and use the factors to find the zeros of the equation. Then, use t

gavmur [86]

Answer:

$x=-7$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation $y=2x^2+28x+96$ . We are asked to find the zeros of equation by factoring and then find the line of symmetry of the parabola.

Let us factor our given equation as:

$2x^2+28x+96=0$

Dividing both sides by 2:

$x^2+14x+48=0$

Splitting the middle term:

$x^2+6x+8x+48=0$

$(x^2+6x)+(8x+48)=0$

$x(x+6)+8(x+6)=0$

$(x+8)(x+6)=0$

Using zero product property:

$(x+8)=0\text{ (or) }(x+6)=0$

$x+8=0\text{ (or) }x+6=0$

$x=-8\text{ (or) }x=-6$

Therefore, the zeros of the given equation are $x=-8\text{ (or) }x=-6$ .

We know that the line of symmetry of a parabola is equal to the x-coordinate of vertex of parabola.

We also know that x-coordinate of vertex of parabola is equal to the average of zeros. So x-coordinate of vertex of parabola would be:

$\frac{-8+(-6)}{2}=\frac{-14}{2}=-7$

Therefore, the equation $x=-7$ represents the line of symmetry of the given parabola.

A triangle has a side lengths of 3 centimeters, 5 centimeters, and 4 centimeters. Abe used converse of the Pythagorean Theorem t

fgiga [73]

No, Abe is incorrect.

If you don’t know which side is the hypotenuse, you have to try every possibility.

3^ + 4^ = 5^
25 = 25

The triangle is a right triangle. The side which is 5 cm long is the hypotenuse.

A company uses the declining-balance method of calculating depreciation expense. On January 1, the company buys machinery for $7

NeX [460]

Answer:

$516,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Beginning boo value of asset A = $750,000

- The salvage value of the asset B = $100,000

- The estimated life of asset t = 10 years

Find:

What is the book value in year 3?

Solution:

- Under the declining balance method, double declining method depreciation rate (R) is calculated by:

R = 1 / t

R = 1 / 10 = 10%

- The accumulated depreciation for 3 years is as follows:

Depreciation: ( A - B ) * R * 2

Year 1: DDB = ( 750,000 - 100,000 ) * 0.2 = $130,000

Year 2: DDB = ( 620,000 - 100,000)*0.2 = $104,000

- The book value in year 3 is:

$ 620,000 - $104,200 = $516,000

If y varies directly with x, and y = 10 when x = 4, write the direct linear variation equation

torisob [31]

The answer is c. I chose the answer c because y=5/2x(I think you forgot to put the x in the question) filled in with the numbers are true while a, b, and d aren't true if filled with 10 and 4.
