Answer:
k can either be
12
or
−
12
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the equation
0=x2+4x+4
. We can solve this by factoring as a perfect square trinomial, so
0=(x+2)2→x=−2 and−2
. Hence, there will be two identical solutions.
The discriminant of the quadratic equation (b2−4ac) can be used to determine the number and the type of solutions. Since a quadratic equations roots are in fact its x intercepts, and a perfect square trinomial will have
2 equal, or 1
distinct solution, the vertex lies on the x axis. We can set the discriminant to 0 and solve:
k2−(4×1×36)=0
k2−144=0
(k+12)(k−12)=0
k=±12
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
The two given and marked angles add up to 90.
A = x
B = 3x + 10
A + B = 90 Substitute for A and B. A and B are just letters I gave things.
x + 3x + 10 = 90 Combine the left
4x + 10 = 90 Subtract 10 from both sides.
4x +10-10 = 90-10 Combine
4x = 80 Divide by 4
4x/4=80/4
x = 20
B. I believe I just wanna get some points
If Heather can do 2 in 10 minutes, then that means that she can do 12 in 1 hour. If Joel can do 3 in 15 minutes, then it means that he can do 12 in 1 hour. Add the number of problems they can do total and that will go between 30 and 50. It is just "less than", not "less than or equal to" because you want to know when the total number goes between the numbers.
Therefore, the correct answer must be <span>30 < 24x + 5 < 50.</span>
