Answer: The value of k for which one root of the quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0 is six times the other is k = 3.
Let's look into the solution step by step.
Explanation:
Given: A quadratic equation, kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0
Let the two zeros of the equation be α and β.
According to the given question, if one of the roots is α the other root will be 6α.
Thus, β = 6α
Hence, the two zeros are α and 6α.
We know that for a given quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0
The sum of the zeros is expressed as,
α + β = - b / a
The product of the zeros is expressed as,
αβ = c / a
For the given quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0,
a = k, b = -14, c = 8
The sum of the zeros is:
α + 6α = 14 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]
⇒ 7α = 14 / k
⇒ α = 2 / k --------------- (1)
The product of the zeros is:
⇒ α × 6α = 8 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]
⇒ 6α 2 = 8 / k
⇒ 6 (2 / k)2 = 8 / k [From (1)]
⇒ 6 × (4 / k) = 8
⇒ k = 24 / 8
⇒ k = 3
130 i think let me know if this is right
Answer:
1006
Step-by-step explanation:
Take proportion, p = 62%
n = (Z² * pq) / M.E²
Margin error = 0.03
p = 62% = 0.62
q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.62 = 0.38
Zcritical at 95% = 1.96
n = (1.96² * (0.62*0.38)) / 0.03²
n = 0.90508096 / 0.0009
n = 1005.6455
n = 1006
Sample size = 1006
Answer:
I think it's around 9.8 or something
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt(100) is 10
so the sqrt(95) should be around 9.8
