Solve the following equation: 8x^2 = 2x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rzqust [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 0, x = \frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8x² = 2x ( subtract 2x from both sides )

8x² - 2x = 0 ( factor out 2x from each term )

2x(4x - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

2x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

4x - 1 = 0 ⇒ 4x = 1 ⇒ x = \frac{1}{4}

To avoid a storm, a passenger-jet pilot descended 0.38 mile in 0.4 minute. What was the plane's average change of altitude per m
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

0.55 mile / minute

Step-by-step explanation:

The average change of altitude per minute would simply be the ratio of distance descended over time. That is:

average change of altitude = distance / time

average change of altitude = 0.44 mile / 0.8 minutes

average change of altitude = 0.55 mile / minute

He must score 83 in the last test.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get a mean of 80 Terry must score a total of  4*80 = 320 over the 4 tests.

So his score for the last test must  be 320 - (71 + 80 + 86)

= 320 -  237

=  83.

A dressmaker needs to cut 18-inch pieces of ribbon from rolls of ribbon that are 6 feet
SashulF [63]
You have 10 rolls and each is 6 feet so therefore you have 60 feet of ribbon. Convert that to inches you need to multiply by 12 so 60 x 12 = 720 inches of ribbon.
If the dress maker needs 18 inch pieces you divide to 720 by 18.
720 divided by 18 will give you 40 pieces.

Final answer:

The dressmaker will get 40, 18-inch pieces of ribbon from 10, 6 foot rolls.

Are the area of a square and the length of its side directly proportional quantities?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Yes they are directly proportional quantities.

Step-by-step explanation:

We find the area of a square by;

A = length squared or (L)² , where 'L' stands for length and 'A' stands for area.

So Area = L²

Assume the length is a units and increase the length by 2 units

The initial area before increasing the length is a²

After increasing the length, the area becomes: (a + 2)² = a² + 4a + 4

Now we subtract the initial area from the final area and get;

(a² + 4a + 4) - a² = 4a + 4

So the new area increases by 4a + 4 units.

Hence, the area increases as the length increases implying that the area of a square is directly proportional to its length.

We denote this proportionality as;

A ∝ L
