To find the zeros of a quadratic fiunction given the equation you can use the next quadratic formula after equal the function to 0:

$\begin{gathered} ax^2+bx+c=0 \\ \\ x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \end{gathered}$

For the given function:

$f(x)=2x^2-10x-3$ $x=\frac{-(-10)\pm\sqrt[]{(-10)^2-4(2)(-3)}}{2(2)}$ $x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt[]{100+24}}{4}$ $\begin{gathered} x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt[]{124}}{4} \\ \\ x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt[]{2\cdot2\cdot31}}{4} \\ \\ x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt[]{2^2\cdot31}}{4} \\ \\ x=\frac{10\pm2\sqrt[]{31}}{4} \\ \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} x_1=\frac{10}{4}+\frac{2\sqrt[]{31}}{4} \\ \\ x_1=\frac{5}{2}+\frac{\sqrt[]{31}}{2} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} x_2=\frac{10}{4}-\frac{2\sqrt[]{31}}{4} \\ \\ x_2=\frac{5}{2}-\frac{\sqrt[]{31}}{2} \end{gathered}$

Then, the zeros of the given quadratic function are:

$\begin{gathered} x=\frac{5}{2}+\frac{\sqrt[]{31}}{2} \\ \\ x_{}=\frac{5}{2}-\frac{\sqrt[]{31}}{2} \end{gathered}$

Please help!<br><br> For what value of x must ABCD be a parallelogram?<br><br> x=?

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

$x=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

For a shape to be a parallelogram, the angles that are across from one another have to be equal.

We can now find x by making both equations equal to each other and solving.

$11x+1=13x-5$

Solve.

$11x+1=13x-5\\6=2x\\x=3$

Find the area of a triangle with a base length of 3 units and a height of 4 units.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

$6$ square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle can be calculated by multiplying the triangle's base by its height, and then dividing the result by $2$ . As an algebraic expression, this would be $\frac{bh}{2}$ , where $b$ is the triangle's base and $h$ is the triangle's height. In this case, we know that $b=3$ and $h=4$ . Therefore, the area of this triangle is $\frac{3*4}{2} =\frac{12}{2} =6$ square units. Hope this helps!

granola bite contains 27 calories. Most of the calories come from grams of carbohydrates. The rest come from other ingredients.

azamat

Answer:

5 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The calories contained are from grams of carbohydrates and other ingredients

One gram of carbohydrate contains 4 calories

The equation 4c + 5 = 27 represents the relationship between these quantities.

1. 5 from the equation represent calories from other ingredients

2. Neither 8 nor 3 is the solution to the equation

4c + 5 = 27

When 8 is the solution

4(8)+5=27

32+5=27

37=27

When 3 is the solution

4(3)+5=27

12+5=27

17=27

Neither 8 nor 3 is the solution to the equation because 8 gives a higher calories in the granola bite and 3 gives a lower calories in the granola bite.

3. Solution to the equation

4c + 5 = 27

4c= 27-5

4c = 22

Divide both sides by 4

c=22/4

=5 2/4

=5 1/2

The solution to the equation is 5 1/2

A test driver has to drive a car on a 1-mile track for two rounds in a way, that his average speed is 60 mph. On his first round

Darya [45]

(40+x)/2=60

40 +x = 120

x = 80

check :

40+80 = 120

120/2 = 60

so his second round needs to be 80 mph
