Remember that quadratic formula: x= \frac{-b(+/-) \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a} is used to solve quadratic equations of the form ax^{2}+bx+c.

Four our problem, the first one, (x-1)^2=4, is not in the form ax^{2}+bx+c. So is not a good idea to use the quadratic formula for this one.

The second one, 0.25x^{2}+0.8x-8=0, is in the correct form. Notice that in this equation a=0.25, b=0.8, and c=-8. It would be appropriate to use the quadratic formula to solve this one.

The third one, 3x^{2}-4x=15, can be expressed as: 3x^{2}-4x-15=0. This equation is also in the correct form. Here a=3, b=-4, and c=-15. It would be appropriate to use the quadratic formula to solve this one.

The fourth one, (x-6)(x+6)=0, is not in the form ax^{2}+bx+c. So is not a good idea to use the quadratic formula for this one.

We can conclude that you should use the quadratic formula to solve the second and third equations.

Which choice is a graph of the solution set for 12 - X &lt; 8?<br> Pleaseeeee helpppppp NUMBER 14
yarga [219]

Answer:

B

Hope this helps!

explanation:

we solve the inequality and to do that we must first subtract 12 from both sides, which gets us -x<-4, then we divide both sides by -1, which gives us x>4, since we have to flip the sign when we divide by a negative. when we graph this, there will be a circle around 4 and the arrow pointing to the right, since it's greater than.

Two agent angles of a parallelogram are in the ratio 1 by 3 find the measures of all the angles​
zalisa [80]

Answer:

The measure of all the angles are;

45°, 135°, 45°, and 135°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The ratio of two adjacent angles of the parallelogram = 1:3

Let x represent one of the adjacent angles, and let y represent the other adjacent angle

Given that two adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary, we have;

x + y = 180°

x:y = 1:3

Therefore, y = 3 × x = 3·x, which gives;

x + 3·x = 180°

4·x = 180°

x = 180°/4 = 45°

y = 3 × x = 3 × 45° = 135°

Given that opposite interior angles of a parallelogram are equal, we have, the measure of all the angles are;

45°, 135°, 45°, and 135°.
