horrorfan [7]3 years ago

Answer: -1

Step-by-step explanation: A typical quadratic equation is ax^{2} +bx+c and the maximum value formula is -b/2a, so let plug it in -4/2(-4) which equals 1/2. Then let plug 1/2 into the equation,

-4(1/2)^2+4(1/2)-2=

    -1+2-2=

          -1

A square ceiling has an area of 360 square feet. Alex wants to put molding around the entire perimeter of the ceiling. Approxima
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Option C is correct

76 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of square(A) is given by:

A =s^2

where, s is the side of the square.

As per the statement:

A square ceiling has an area of 360 square feet.

⇒A = 360 square feet.

then;

s^2 = 360

⇒s = \sqrt{360} =18.973666

Perimeter(P) of square is given by:

P = 4s

then;

P = 4 \cdot 18.973666 = 75.894664 \approx 76 ft

Therefore, 76 feet molding does he need.

Find the measure of each missing angle.
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle sum property of triangle: Sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180

Alternate interior angles: When two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, the pair of angles on the inner side of  each of these lines but on the opposite side of the transversal are called  alternate interior angles

In ΔABC,

  ∠1 + 90 + 38 = 180    {angle sum property of triangle}

         ∠1 + 128 =  180

               ∠1     = 180 - 128

            \sf \boxed{\bf  \angle 1     = 52^ \°}

AB // CD and AC is transversal.

 \sf \boxed{\bf  \angle 3 = 38^\circ}   {Alternate interior angles are equal}

In ΔACD,

      ∠2 + ∠3 + 63 = 180 {angle sum property of triangle}

       ∠2 + 38 +63  = 180

               ∠2  + 101 =180

                         ∠2 = 180 - 101

                      \sf \boxed{\bf  \angle 2 = 79^ \°}

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 10cm long. The longer leg is 2cm longer than the shorter leg. Find the side lengths of the
Crazy boy [7]
We need Pythagoras theorem here
a^2+b^2 = c^2
a, b =  legs of a right-triangle
c = length of hypotenuse

Let S=shorter leg, in cm, then longer leg=S+2 cm
use Pythagoras theorem
S^2+(S+2)^2 = (10 cm)^2
expand (S+2)^2
S^2 +   S^2+4S+4  = 100 cm^2   [collect terms and isolate]
2S^2+4S =  100-4 = 96 cm^2
simplify and form standard form of quadratic
S^2+2S-48=0
Solve by factoring
(S+8)(S-6) = 0   means (S+8)=0, S=-8
or                                   (S-6)=0, S=6
Reject nengative root, so
Shorter leg = 6 cm
Longer leg = 6+2 cm = 8 cm
Hypotenuse (given) = 10 cm

For a moving object,When. The force acting on the object varies directly with the object's acceleration. When a force of 64 N ac
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

72 N

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question.

Force is directly proportional to acceleration, with the mass of the object constant.

F α a

F = ka

F₁/a₁ = F₂/a₂....................... Equation 1

Where F₁ = Initial force, a₁ = initial acceleration. F₂ = final force, a₂ = Final acceleration.

make F₂ the subject of the equation

F₂ = (F₁/a₁)a₂................ Equation 2

Given; F₁ = 64 N, a₁ = 8 m/s², a₂ = 9 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 2

F₂ = (64/8)(9)

F₂ = 72 N
