Answer:

  • 4x² - 13x + 8 = 0
  • 4x² - 11x + 5 = 0
  • 16x² - 41x + 1 = 0
  • x² + 5x + 4 = 0
  • x² - 66x + 64 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • α and β are roots of 4x²-5x-1=0

<u>Then the sum and product of the roots are:</u>

  • α+b = -(-5)/4 = 5/4
  • αβ = -1/4

(i) <u>Roots are α + 1 and β + 1, then we have:</u>

  • (x - (α + 1))(x - (β + 1)) = 0
  • (x - α - 1)(x - β - 1) = 0
  • x² - (α+β+2)x + α+β+ αβ + 1 = 0
  • x² - (5/4+2)x +5/4 - 1/4 + 1 = 0
  • x² - 13/4x + 2= 0
  • 4x² - 13x + 8 = 0

(ii) <u>Roots are 2 - α and 2 - β, then we have:</u>

  • (x + α - 2)(x + β - 2) = 0
  • x² + (a + β - 4)x - 2(α + β) + αβ + 4 = 0
  • x² + (5/4 - 4)x - 2(5/4) - 1/4 + 4 = 0
  • x² - 11/4x - 10/4 - 1/4 + 16/4 = 0
  • x² - 11/4x + 5/4x = 0
  • 4x² - 11x + 5 = 0

(iii) <u>Roots are α² and β², then:</u>

  • (x - α²)(x-β²) = 0
  • x² -(α²+β²)x + (αβ)² = 0
  • x² - ((α+β)² - 2αβ)x + (-1/4)² = 0
  • x² - ((5/4)² -2(-1/4))x + 1/16 = 0
  • x² - ( 25/16 + 1/2)x + 1/16 = 0
  • x² - 33/16x + 1/16 = 0
  • 16x² - 33x + 1 = 0

(iv) <u>Roots are 1/α and 1/β, then:</u>

  • (x - 1/α)(x - 1/β) = 0
  • x² - (1/α+1/β)x + 1/αβ = 0
  • x² - ((α+β)/αβ)x + 1/αβ = 0
  • x² - (5/4)/(-1/4)x - 1/(-1/4) = 0
  • x² + 5x + 4 = 0

(v) <u>Roots are 2/α² and 2/β², then:</u>

  • (x - 2/α²)(x - 2/β²) = 0
  • x² - (2/α² + 2/β²)x + 4/(αβ)² = 0
  • x² - 2((α+β)² - 2αβ)/(αβ)²)x + 4/(αβ)² = 0
  • x² - 2((5/4)² - 2(-1/4))/(-1/4)²x + 4/(-1/4)² = 0
  • x² - 2(25/16 + 8/16)/(1/16)x + 4(16) = 0
  • x² - 2(33)x + 64 = 0
  • x² - 66x + 64 = 0

A volleyball reaches its maximum height of 13 feet, 3 seconds after its served. Which of the following quadratics could model th
julsineya [31]
Only selections B and D give a maximum height of 13 at t=3. However, both of those functions have the height be -5 at t=0, meaning the ball was served from 5 ft below ground. This does not seem like an appropriate model.

We suspect ...
• the "correct" answers are probably B and D
• whoever wrote the problem wasn't paying attention.

The distance between the two islands shown on the map is 210 miles. A ruler measures the distance on the map is three 1/2 inches
BARSIC [14]
<span>210 miles equals 1 and 1/2 inches (3 1/2"s or 0.5"). 1 and 1/2" is equal to two 3/4" (3/4 + 3/4 = 1 and 1/2). 1.5" is equal to 210 miles, and 1.5" is equal to 2 * .75", you can divide 210 miles by two, which gives you 105 miles.</span>
