Y=3x²+3x+1,find the value of the discrimination​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rufina [12.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 3

b = 3

c  = 1

Discriminate = sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)

Discriminate = sqrt(9 - 4*3*1)

Discriminate = sqrt(9 - 12)

Discriminate = sqrt(-3)

What negative value means that there are no real roots and the y intercept = 1. You should always graph this kind of question, which I am doing for you. I use Desmos which is a very handy program.

You should notice that the minimum is above the x axis. That means there are no real roots, just as the discriminate tells you.

A cable car starts off with n riders. The times between successive stops of the car are independent exponential random variables
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The distribution is \frac{\lambda^{n}e^{- \lambda t}t^{n - 1}}{(n - 1)!}

Solution:

As per the question:

Total no. of riders = n

Now, suppose the T_{i} is the time between the departure of the rider i - 1 and i from the cable car.

where

T_{i} = independent exponential random variable whose rate is \lambda

The general form is given by:

T_{i} = \lambda e^{- lambda}

(a) Now, the time distribution of the last rider is given as the sum total of the time of each rider:

S_{n} = T_{1} + T_{2} + ........ + T_{n}

S_{n} = \sum_{i}^{n} T_{n}

Now, the sum of the exponential random variable with \lambda with rate \lambda is given by:

S_{n} = f(t:n, \lamda) = \frac{\lambda^{n}e^{- \lambda t}t^{n - 1}}{(n - 1)!}

The current population of a town is 10,000 and its growth in years can be represented by P(t) = 10,000(0.2)^t, where t is the ti
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

1) 20%

2) Choice a.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(t)=10000(0.2)^t

1) P(0) is the population initially.

P(1) is the population after a year.

\frac{P(1)}{P(0)} represents the population increase factor.

So let's evaluate that fraction:

\frac{P(1)}{P(0)}

\frac{10000(0.2)^1}{10000(0.2)^0}

\frac{0.2^1}{0.2^0}=\frac{0.2}{1}=0.2

0.2=20%

2) Let's figure out the population growth in terms of months instead of years.

P(t)=10000(0.2)^{t}

We want t to represent months.

A full year is 12 months, in a full year we have that P(1)=10000(0.2)^1=10000(0.2)=2000

So we want a new P such that P(12)=2000 since 12 months equals a year.

Let's look at the functions given to see which gives us this:

a) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{12}=2000 \text{approximately}

b) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{12(12)}=0 \text{ approximately}

c) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{\frac{1}{12}}=9889 \text{approximately}

d) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{12+12}=400 \text{approximately}

So a is the function we want.

Also another way to look at this:

P(t)=10000(.2)^t where t is in years.

P(t)=10000(.2^\frac{1}{12})^t where t is in months.

And .2^\frac{1}{12}=0.874485 \text{approximately}

Zzyzx Road is in California near Nevada. How many five-letter arrangements of the letters in the English alphabet follow Zzyzx a
Gemiola [76]
This problem can be solved using the concepts of permutation.

Zzyzx is the word. It has five letters. It asked as to how many five-letter arrangements of the letters in the English alphabet follow Zzyzx alphabetically.

Take note: <span>alphabetically
</span>
The two remaining five-letter after Zzyzx are Zzyzy and Zzyzz.
The remaining arrangements are of the form Zzz _ _.
There are 26 × 26 = 676 ways to fill in the last two letters, so following Zzyzx alphabetically, there are 2 + 676 = 678 arrangements.

Mr. Jones wants to place a chimney on his roof. It is recommended that the chimney be set at a height of at least 30 feet. The h
Tom [10]

Absolute value of any number is always positive because it represent distance and distance will always positive.

To place chimney at  least 30 feet , the distance along the width of the roof  (x) will be  x = 17.5 feet or x = 2.5 feet.

Since, The height of the roof is described by the function f(x)=−4/3|x−10| + 40

Since, minimum height is 30 feet.

So , substitute f(x)=30 in above expression.

                 30=−4/3|x−10| + 40

                   4/3|x−10| = 10

                      |x−10|=30/4

                      |x−10| = 7.5

Taking positive case,

                           x−10 = 7.5

                           x = 17.5 feet

Taking negative case,

                          x−10 = - 7.5

                          x = 10 - 7.5

                          x = 2.5 feet
