Describe how you would determine the x-intercepts from the factored form of a quadratic equation

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aloiza [94]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the factored form, all we have to do is to equate each of the factor to zero, then solve for x

The particular value of x represents the solution that shows the value of the x-intercept

for example

In a case of a quadratic equation where we have

(x-a)(x-b) = 0

Then we can have

(x-a) = 0 or ((x-b) = 0

Then we have x = a or x = b

a and b are the x intercepts in this case

A circle has its center at the center of a square with 3-inch sides. Find the area of the square not covered by the circle Round
Aleonysh [2.5K]
So in order for us to know the area of the square that is not covered by the circle, we need to find first both the areas of the square and the circle.
So for the area of the square it is A = sxs. And for the circle is A = pi*r^2.
Let us find the area of the square first given that the side is 3 inches.
So A = 3*3
    A = 9 square inches.
Next is the area of the circle. Since the center of the circle is the same with the center of the square, the radius would be 1.5.
SO, A = (3.14)(1.5)^2
       A = 2.25 (3.14)
        A = 7.065 square inches.
Next, we deduct the area of circle from area of square and the result would be 1.935 <span>in². So the answer for this would be option B.
Hope this answer helps.</span>

After an antibiotic tablet is taken, the concentration of the antibiotic in the bloodstream is modelled by the function C(t)=8(e
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

the maximum concentration of the antibiotic during the first 12 hours is 1.185 \mu g/mL at t= 2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

After an antibiotic tablet is taken, the concentration of the antibiotic in the bloodstream is modeled by the function where the time t is measured in hours and C is measured in \mu g/mL

C(t) = 8(e^{(-0.4t)}-e^{(-0.6t)})

Thus, we are given the time interval [0,12] for t.

  • We can apply the first derivative test, to know the absolute maximum value because we have a closed interval for t.
  • The first derivative test focusing on a particular point. If the function switches or changes from increasing to decreasing at the point, then the function will achieve a highest value at that point.

First, we differentiate C(t) with respect to t, to get,

\frac{d(C(t))}{dt} = 8(-0.4e^{(-0.4t)}+ 0.6e^{(-0.6t)})

Equating the first derivative to zero, we get,

\frac{d(C(t))}{dt} = 0\\\\8(-0.4e^{(-0.4t)}+ 0.6e^{(-0.6t)}) = 0

Solving, we get,

8(-0.4e^{(-0.4t)}+ 0.6e^{(-0.6t)}) = 0\\\displaystyle\frac{e^{-0.4}}{e^{-0.6}} = \frac{0.6}{0.4}\\\\e^{0.2t} = 1.5\\\\t = \frac{ln(1.5)}{0.2}\\\\t \approx 2

At t = 0

C(0) = 8(e^{(0)}-e^{(0)}) = 0

At t = 2

C(2) = 8(e^{(-0.8)}-e^{(-1.2)}) = 1.185

At t = 12

C(12) = 8(e^{(-4.8)}-e^{(-7.2)}) = 0.059

Thus, the maximum concentration of the antibiotic during the first 12 hours is 1.185 \mu g/mL at t= 2 hours.

The money in Juan's savings account earns 1 1/4% interest. Which value is less than 1 1/4 %? The values are: a. 1/4 b. 0.125 c.
aleksandrvk [35]
11/4% = (11/4)/100 = 11/400 = 0.0275;
1/4 = 0.2500;
1/80 = 0.0125;
We observe that 0.0125 < 0.0275 and 0.0114 < 0.0275 and 0.2500 > 0.0275 and 0.12500 > 0.0275;

The answers are c. and d.

If a new college graduate wants a car costing $21,000, how much must be saved annually over the next four years if the funds ear
fgiga [73]
I'm assuming the funds earn 5% yearly?

Call x the amount he saves every year.  The first year's deposit will be multiplied by 1.05 three times, the next will be multiplied by 1.05 twice, the third will be multiplied by 1.05 once, and the fourth will not generate interest (as it will immediately be used to buy the car).

Therefore, x(1.05^3+1.05^2+1.05+1)=21000, so 4.31x=21000.  Dividing by 4.31, we see that x is approximately equal to 4872.
