Answer:

Sybil may have confused the units, since 65 centimetres is 6.5 meters The correct length of the desk in meters is 0.65 because a centimetre is 0.01 of a meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Her desk is actually 65 centimetre long . She made an error and conclude the length of her desk is 6.5 meter long. She made a mistake in her conversion .

1 centimetre = 0.01 meters

65 centimetres = ? meters

cross multiply

65 × 0.01 = 0.65  meters

A centimetre is equal to  0.01 meters. Therefore, using that conversion rate 65 centimetres will evaluate to 0.65 meters.  

The actual length of her desk in meters is 0.65. She made an error when converting her desk length from centimetres to meters.

Roots of Quadratics 50 PTS!!!
noname [10]

The values of k for the different quadratic equation solutions are as follows

a  the equation 2x² - x + 3k = 0 has two distinct real roots

  • k < 1/24

b. the equation 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0 has equal roots

  • k = 3/5

ci the equation -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0 has real roots

  • k > -3.25

d the equation 3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0 has no real solutions

  • k < ± 1.633

<h3>How to solve quadratic equations to get different answers</h3>

Quadratic equations of the form ax² + bx + c = 0 is solved using the formula

-b+\frac{\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}     OR     -b-\frac{\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

The equation b² - 4ac is called the discriminant and it is used as follows

To solve the equation and get two real roots: 2x² - x + 3k = 0

  • b² - 4ac > 0

substituting the values gives

(-1)² - 4 * 2 * 3k > 0

1 - 24k > 0

1 > 24k

divide through by coefficient of k

k < 1/24

To solve the equation and get equal roots: 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0

  • b² - 4ac = 0

substituting the values gives

(-2)² - 4 * 5 * (2k - 1) = 0

4 - 40k + 20 = 0

-40k = -24

divide through by coefficient of k

k = 3/5

To solve the equation and get real roots  -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0

  • b² - 4ac > 0

substituting the values gives  

(3)² - 4 * -1 * (k+1) > 0

9 + 4k + 4> 0

4k > -13

divide through by coefficient of k

k > -3.25

To solve the equation and get  no real solutions  3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0

  • b² - 4ac < 0

substituting the values gives  

(-3)² - 4 * 3k * 2 < 0

9 - 24k² > 0

9 > 24k²

divide through by coefficient of k²

k² < 24/9

k < ± 1.633

Pedro fills a glass 2/4 full with orange juice. Write a fraction with a denominator of 6 that is greater than 2/4.
Mice21 [21]
The answer is 3/6.
So we know that 2/4 is equivalent to 1/2. 1/2 of 6 is 3. We can make this our numerator and our denominator as 6.
