Find the discriminant, describe the types of roots, and find the solution for 3x^2-24x+12

1 answer:

4 0

The discriminant of a polynomial is given by:
b ^ 2-4ac
Substituting the values we have:
(-24) ^ 2-4 * (3) * (12) = 432
Since the discriminator is greater than zero, then the roots are real.
x = (- b +/- root (b ^ 2-4ac)) / (2a)
Substituting the values:
x = (- (- 24) +/- root (432) / (2 * (3))
x = (- (- 24) +/- root (432) / (2 * (3))
x = (- (- 24) +/- root (144 * 3) / (2 * (3))
x = (24 +/- 12raiz (3) / (6)
x = 4 +/- 2raiz (3)
The roots are:
x1 = 4 + 2raiz (3)
x2 = 4 - 2raiz (3)
Answer:
432
the roots are real.
x1 = 4 + 2raiz (3)
x2 = 4 - 2raiz (3)

Joseph needs 6 1/2 cups of cooked rice for a recipe of nasi gorang. If 2 cups of uncooked rice with 2 1/2 cups of water make 4 1

liraira [26]

Answer:

The number of the cups of uncooked rice is 3 cups

The number of the cups of water is $3\frac{3}{4}$ cups

Step-by-step explanation:

* Let us read the recipe of Nasi Gorang

- 2 cups of uncooked rice need $2\frac{1}{2}$ cups of water to

make $4\frac{1}{3}$ cups of cooked rice

- Joseph needs $6\frac{1}{2}$ cups of cooked rice

- We need to know how many cups of uncooked rice Joshep needs

for this recipe and how much water should be added

* We can solve this problem by using the ratio method

⇒ uncooked cups : water cups : cooked cups

⇒ 2 : $2\frac{1}{2}$ : $4\frac{1}{3}$

⇒ x : y : $6\frac{1}{2}$

- By using cross multiplication

∵ x ( $4\frac{1}{3}$ ) = 2 ( $6\frac{1}{2}$ )

∵ $4\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{13}{3}$

∵ $6\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{13}{2}$

∴ x ( $\frac{13}{3}$ ) = 2 ( $\frac{13}{2}$ )

∴ $\frac{13}{3}$ x = 13

- Divide both sides by $\frac{13}{3}$

∴ x = 3

∴ The number of the cups of uncooked rice is 3 cups

- By using cross multiplication

∵ y ( $4\frac{1}{3}$ ) = ( $2\frac{1}{2}$ )( $6\frac{1}{2}$ )

∵ $2\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{5}{2}$

∵ $6\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{13}{2}$

∵ $4\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{13}{3}$

∴ $\frac{13}{3}$ y = ( $\frac{5}{2}$ )( $\frac{13}{2}$ )

∴ $\frac{13}{3}$ y = $\frac{65}{4}$

- Divide both sides by $\frac{13}{3}$

∴ y = $3\frac{3}{4}$

∴ The number of the cups of water is $3\frac{3}{4}$ cups

How do I solve this?

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the area of the triangle. The Area of a triangle can be modeled as

b x h x 1/2; base = 6 and the height equals 8. 6x8=48 then don't forget to divide by 2. 48/2= 24

To find the area of a half-circle, you first need to find the area of the whole circle. Whole circle area equation = r^2 times pi. The diameter is 8 and the radius is 1/2 times the diameter, therefore the radius = 4. 4^2= 16

16pi= approximately 50.24

50.24/2= 25.12

25.12 + 16 = 41.12

The area of the figure is approximately 41.12 ft^2

Hope this helps and please mark me brainliest, it really helps!
