Answer:
x ≈ - 6.74, 0.74
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 6x - 5 = 0 ( add 5 to both sides )
x² + 6x = 5
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 5 + 9
(x + 3)² = 14 ( take square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ±
( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ± 
Then
x = - 3 -
≈ - 6.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
x = - 3 +
≈ 0.74 ( to the nearest hundredth )
Answer:
The copy machine makes 87.5 copies in one minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation to divide 4 into 350. This is because in order to know how many copies is being made in 1 minute, you need to determine the rate of copies per minute.
350 divided by 4 is 87.5.
Answer:
(a)


(b)


(c)


Step-by-step explanation:
(a) This is a sequence of consecutive number



(b) This is a sequence of 2 to the power of n - 1. The next number is twice time of this number



(c) This is factorial sequence. Where the next number is this number multiplied by 



Mean, in terms of math, is the total added values of all the data in a set divided by the number of data <em>in</em> the set. Make sense? If not, here' an example...
Let's say this is my data set:
1, 2, 5, 4, 3, 8, 7, 4, 6,10
To find the mean...
Step 1: Add all of them together.
1+2+5+4+3+8+7+4+6+10 is what? 50. Now that you have this number...
Step 2: Divide by the amount there are. Basically, count up all of the numbers. How many are there? There are 10. Finally...
Step 3: Divide. 50/10 is 5, so the mean of this data set would be 5. Get it? I sure hoped this helped :)
