Answer:

b  =  16

Step-by-step explanation:

16*x  + b*x  + 4  =  0

Solving for x we get:

x₁,₂  =   - b  ±  √  b² - 4*a*c   ] / 2*a         (1)

If we take a look to the square root

√ b² - 4*4*16      =  √ b²  - 256

if we make √ b²  - 256    = 0

b²  =  256       ⇒      b  =  16

Then equation (1) becomes:

x₁,₂  = ( - 16  ±  0  ) / 32

x  = -  1/2

Inessa [10]

Answer:

\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{Own cat}&\text{Do not own cat}&\text{Total}\\\text{Own dog}& 45 & 125 & 170\\\text{Do not own dog}& 78 & 52 & 130 \\\text{Total}& 123 & 177 &300\end{array}

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table you can see that

  • 45 customers own cat and dog;
  • 78 own only cat, then 78+45=123 customers own cat;
  • 125 own only dog, then 125+45=170 customers own dog;
  • 52 own neither cat, nor dog;
  • 78+45+125+52=300 customers in total;
  • 300-123=177 customers do not own cat;
  • 300-170=130 customers do not own dog.

Two-way table is

\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{Own cat}&\text{Do not own cat}&\text{Total}\\\text{Own dog}& 45 & 125 & 170\\\text{Do not own dog}& 78 & 52 & 130 \\\text{Total}& 123 & 177 &300\end{array}

A decent-sized square plot of land in town is one acre. If Mr. Pearson wants to play football with his son Connor, then how far
sammy [17]
One acre of land is equal to 4046.86 sq.m.
To know how far they can throw the ball from corner to corner can be interpreted in two ways: throwing the ball diagonally across the field or throwing the ball horizontally across the field. For the first question, since the field is a square, you can use the equation Diagonal of Square = A x sq.root of 2.

In this case, the answer would be 89.97 m.

If the ball is thrown horizontally across the field, then you would only need to know the length of one side of the square, which is the square root of the area. Doing this would give you the answer 63.61 m.

Please help will give brainlist
adoni [48]

Answer:

It would be option 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because option 1 does not have a irrational number that goes on indefinitely, option three has the square root of 25, which equals 5 meaning it is rational, and the last option also gives us rational choices. Therefore, the only possibility is that it would be option 2.
