How can I solve this quadratic equation by factoring?

Mathematics
1 answer:
aalyn [17]3 years ago
5 0

First set the equation equal to 0 by subtracting n from both sides.

That leaves us with 8n² - 11n = 0.

Since the GCF on the left is n, we can

factor it out to get n(8n - 11) = 0.

So either n = 0 or 8n - 11 = 0.

Solving for n in the second equation, we get n = 11/8.

So our solution is {0, 11/8}.

Quality control studies for Speedy Jet Computer Printers show the lifetime of the printer follows a normal distribution with mea
Anika [276]

Answer:

About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Quality control studies for Speedy Jet Computer Printers show the lifetime of the printer follows a normal distribution with

mean \mu = 4 and standard deviation  \sigma = 0.78

If the company wishes to replace no more than 10% of the printers.

To find : How long should Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed ?

Solution :

Using Z- table,  

Z value corresponding to 10% or 0.10 = -1.28.

Applying z-score formula,

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

The value of x is given by,

x=(z\times \sigma)+\mu

Substitute the values,

x=(-1.28\times 0.78)+4

x=-0.9984+4

x=3.0016

So, approx 3 years.

Therefore, About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

Consider the function g(x) = 10/x
ss7ja [257]
<span><span>The correct answers are:
</span><span>(1) The vertical asymptote is x = 0
(2) The horizontal asymptote is y = 0

</span><span>Explanation:
</span><span>(1) To find the vertical asymptote, put the denominator of the rational function equals to zero.

Rational Function = g(x) = </span></span>\frac{10}{x}<span>

Denominator = x = 0

Hence the vertical asymptote is x = 0.

(2) To find the horizontal asymptote, check the power of x in numerator against the power of x in denominator as follows:

Given function = g(x) = </span>\frac{10}{x}<span>

We can write it as:

g(x) = </span>\frac{10 * x^0}{x^1}<span>

If power of x in numerator is less than the power of x in denomenator, then the horizontal asymptote will be y=0.
If power of x in numerator is equal to the power of x in denomenator, then the horizontal asymptote will be y=(co-efficient in numerator)/(co-efficient in denomenator).
If power of x in numerator is greater than the power of x in denomenator, then there will be no horizontal asymptote.

In above case, 0 < 1, therefore, the horizontal asymptote is y = 0

The price of gasoline at a service station increased from $1.65 per gallon last week to $1.82 per gallon this week. Sally paid $
Mila [183]

Answer:

  $2.72

Step-by-step explanation:

The increase from last week is the fraction ...

  (new price)/(old price) -1 = (1.82/1.65) -1 = 17/165

so the amount of increase Sally will pay this week is ...

  17/165×$26.40 = $2.72

_____

<em>Comment on the working</em>

We could work this several ways. Perhaps most straightforward would be to determine how many gallons Sally bought last week, and multiply that by the change in price. Or, the number of gallons could be multiplied by the new price per gallon and the difference from the old purchase amount found.

If you look at the numbers, you see that we have effectively done it the first way. The change in price is $0.17 per gallon, and the number of gallons Sally bought is $26.40/$1.65.
