Find the value of for 3x-6x+14 4x-4

Which of the following is not a possible number of solutions when solving a system of equations containing a quadratic and a lin

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a system with two equations, one equation is a quadratic function and the other equation is a linear function.

To solve this system we have to clear "y" in both equations, and then equal both equations, then we will have a quadratic function and equal it to zero:

$ax^2+bx+c=0, a\neq 0$

Then to resolve a quadratic equation we apply Bhaskara's formula:

$x_{1}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

$x_{2}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

It usually has two solutions.

But it could happen that $\sqrt{b^2-4ac}$ then the equation doesn't have real solutions.

Or it could happen that there's only one solution, this happen when the linear equation touches the quadratic equation in one point.

And it's not possible to have more than 2 solutions. Then the answer ir 3.

For example:

In the three graphs the pink one is a quadratic function and the green one is a linear function.

In the first graph we can see that the linear function intersects the quadratic function in two points, then there are two solutions.

In the second graph we can see that the linear function intersects the quadratic function in only one point, then there is one solutions.

In the third graph we can see that the linear function doesn't intersect the quadratic function, then there aren't real solutions.

1) Anna and Jason have summer jobs stuffing envelopes for two different companies. Anna earns $20 for every 400 envelopes she fi

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A) i)

For Anna initially, she has $0 from making 0 envelopes. After making 400 envelopes she has $20. Let x represent the number of envelopes and y the earnings. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 0) and (400, 20). Using the equation of a line:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{20-0}{400-0}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{20} x$

The table is:

x: 200 400 600 800 1000

y: 10 20 30 40 50

ii)

For Jason initially, he has $0 from making 0 envelopes. For every 250 envelopes he has $10. Let x represent the number of envelopes and y the earnings. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 0) and (250, 10). Using the equation of a line:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{10-0}{250-0}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{25} x$

The table is:

x: 200 400 600 800 1000

y: 8 16 24 32 40

The graph is plotted using geogebra online graphing

b) From the table above we can see that Anna makes more stuffing than Jason.

c) Anna has a savings of $100. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 100) and (250, 10). Using the equation of a line:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-100=\frac{20-0}{400-100}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{15} x+100$

We can see from the graph that there is a y intercept at 100. That is the earnings starts from 100.

The equation of a line is given as y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept (initial value)

For the first graph, the slope is 1/20 and the initial value is 0 while for the second graph the slope is 1/15 and the initial value is 100

D) The line pass through (10, 10) and (100, 40), hence:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-10=\frac{40-10}{100-10}(x-10)\\\\y-10=\frac{1}{3} (x-10)\\\\y=\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{20}{3}$

What number is 120% of 12

Rasek [7]

120% of 12 is 14.4.I got this by doing this:

12/x=100/120
(12/x)*x=(100/120)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
12=0.833333333333*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.833333333333) to get x
12/0.833333333333=x 
14.4=x 
x=14.4

GEOMETRY. 20 POINTS. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE STUPID ANSWERS.

sp2606 [1]

Hey there!

A quadrilateral has 360 degrees. So add all the degrees together to 360. 9x+1+5x-12+8x+61+90=360. 90 degrees is in the bottom left corner. Combine like terms. 22x+140=360. Subtract 140 from each side. 22x=220. Divide 22 on each side to get x=10. Plug in 10 for x in angle D. 5(10)-12=38. The measure of angle D is 38 degrees.

I hope this helps!
