Answer:

x > 24

Step-by-step explanation:

- 1/2 x < -12

Multiply each side by -2, remembering to flip the inequality

-2 * -1/2x > -12 *-2

x > 24

the number of Roberto's baseball cards is 3/4 the number of David's cards. If Roberto gives 1/2 of his cards to David, what will
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The ratio between Roberto and David is 3:11

Step-by-step explanation:

If Roberto were to have 18 cards when we start, then David would have 24. Roberto has 3/4 the amount that David has. Then Roberto gives half of his cards (9) to David. Roberto now has 9 cards and David has 33.

The black graph is the graph of y=f(x). Choose the equation for the red graph.<br> Please help me!!!
dusya [7]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The red graph is a horizontal translation of 5 units left followed by a reflection in the x- axis.

Given f(x) then f(x + a) is a horizontal translation of f(x)

• If a > 0 then a shift to the left of a units

• If a < 0 then a shift to the right of a units

The black graph is shifted 5 units left, thus

f(x) → f(x + 5)

Under a reflection in the x- axis

a point (x, y ) → (x, - y )

Note that the y- coordinate of the image is the negative of the original

Note also that \frac{y}{-1} = - y, thus

\frac{y}{-1} = f(x + 5) → B

Roots of Quadratics 50 PTS!!!
noname [10]

The values of k for the different quadratic equation solutions are as follows

a  the equation 2x² - x + 3k = 0 has two distinct real roots

  • k < 1/24

b. the equation 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0 has equal roots

  • k = 3/5

ci the equation -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0 has real roots

  • k > -3.25

d the equation 3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0 has no real solutions

  • k < ± 1.633

<h3>How to solve quadratic equations to get different answers</h3>

Quadratic equations of the form ax² + bx + c = 0 is solved using the formula

-b+\frac{\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}     OR     -b-\frac{\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

The equation b² - 4ac is called the discriminant and it is used as follows

To solve the equation and get two real roots: 2x² - x + 3k = 0

  • b² - 4ac > 0

substituting the values gives

(-1)² - 4 * 2 * 3k > 0

1 - 24k > 0

1 > 24k

divide through by coefficient of k

k < 1/24

To solve the equation and get equal roots: 5x² - 2x + (2k − 1) = 0

  • b² - 4ac = 0

substituting the values gives

(-2)² - 4 * 5 * (2k - 1) = 0

4 - 40k + 20 = 0

-40k = -24

divide through by coefficient of k

k = 3/5

To solve the equation and get real roots  -x² + 3x + (k + 1) = 0

  • b² - 4ac > 0

substituting the values gives  

(3)² - 4 * -1 * (k+1) > 0

9 + 4k + 4> 0

4k > -13

divide through by coefficient of k

k > -3.25

To solve the equation and get  no real solutions  3kx² - 3x + 2 = 0

  • b² - 4ac < 0

substituting the values gives  

(-3)² - 4 * 3k * 2 < 0

9 - 24k² > 0

9 > 24k²

divide through by coefficient of k²

k² < 24/9

k < ± 1.633
