Answer:

49/8 is the value of k

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the system

x = -2y^2 - 3y + 5

x=k

We want to find k such that the system intersects once.

If we substitute the second into the first giving us k=-2y^2-3y+5 we should see we have a quadratic equation in terms of variable y.

This equation has one solution when it's discriminant is 0.

Let's first rewrite the equation in standard form.

Subtracting k on both sides gives

0=-2y^2-3y+5-k

The discriminant can be found by evaluating

b^2-4ac.

Upon comparing 0=-2y^2-3y+5-k to 0=ax^2+bx+c, we see that

a=-2, b=-3, and c=5-k.

So we want to solve the following equation for k:

(-3)^2-4(-2)(5-k)=0

9+8(5-k)=0

Distribute:

9+40-8k=0

49-8k=0

Add 8k on both sides:

49=8k

Divide both sides by 8"

49/8=k

How to name a angle in 4 different ways?<br> First answer and correct answer gets to be brainliest!
likoan [24]

Hey there!

  • 4 ways to name angles

⇒ Use the vertex as the middle letter, and the point from each side (<ABC or <CBA)

⇒ Use the vertex only (<B)

⇒ Use a number (<1)

  • Classify angles according to their measure.

⇒ Acute angle: less than 90°

⇒ Right angle: exactly 90°

⇒ Obtuse angle: between 90° and 180°

⇒ Straight angle: exactly 180°

Thank you,

Eddie

Which of the following triangles are right triangles? select all apply
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

The following Triangles are Right Triangles:

1.  Δ ABC Where AB = 76 in, BC = 357 in, and AC = 365 in.

2. Δ MIT Where MI = 123 cm, IT = 836 cm, and MT = 845 cm.

3. Δ MEL Where ME = 20 ft, EL = 99 ft, and ML = 101 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a Triangle to be a Right Triangle it must Satisfy Pythagoras theorem.

i.e.

(\textrm{Hypotenuse})^{2} = (\textrm{Shorter leg})^{2}+(\textrm{Longer leg})^{2}

For Δ ABC Where AB = 76 in, BC = 357 in, and AC = 365 in.

AC² = 365² = 133225

AB² + BC² = 76² + 357² = 1333225

∴  AC² = AB² + BC²

Hence Δ ABC a Right Triangle.

For Δ MIT Where MI = 123 cm, IT = 836 cm, and MT = 845 cm.

MT² = 845² = 71405

MI² + IT² = 123² + 836² = 714025

∴ MT² = MI² + IT²

Hence Δ MIT a Right Triangle.

For  Δ MEL Where ME = 20 ft, EL = 99 ft, and ML = 101 ft.

ML² = 101² = 10201

ME² + EL² = 20² + 99² = 10201

∴ ML² = ME² + EL²

Hence Δ MEL a Right Triangle.
