Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic equation is,

12a² + 9a + 7 = 0

By comparing this equation with standard quadratic equation,

hx² + kx + c = 0

h = 12, k = 9 and c = 7

By using quadratic formula,

a = \frac{-k\pm\sqrt{k^2-4hc}}{2h}

  = \frac{-9\pm\sqrt{9^2-4(12)(7)}}{2(12)}

  = \frac{-9\pm\sqrt{81-336}}{2(12)}

  = \frac{-9\pm\sqrt{-255}}{24}

  = \frac{-9\pm i\sqrt{255}}{24}

a = \frac{-9+ i\sqrt{255}}{24},\frac{-9- i\sqrt{255}}{24}

Therefore, Option B will be the correct option.

the denominator of a fraction is 3 less than the numerator. If 5 is added to the numerator and denominator, the result is 5/6. F
Vitek1552 [10]
X=numerator
y=denominator
the sum of numerator and denominator=x+y
we suggest this system of equations:

y=x-3
(x+5) / (y+5)=5/6

we solve this system of equation by substitution method.
(x+5) / (x-3+5)=5/6
(x+5) / (x+2)=5/6
6(x+5)=5(x+2)
6x+30=5x+10
6x-5x=10-30
x=-20

y=x-3=-20-3=-23

Teh sum of the numerator an denominator=-20+(-23)=-43

Answer:    -43

Let u = <-8, -9>. Find 7u. (2 points)
ANEK [815]

Multiplying a vector by a scalar means to multiply each coordinate of the vector by said scalar.

So, we must multiply both entries by 7:

u=(-8, -9)\implies 7u=(-8\cdot 7, -9\cdot 7) = (-56, -63)

Without the wind, a plane would fly due east at a rate of 150 mph. The wind is blowing southeast at a rate of 50 mph. The wind i
ch4aika [34]
The actual speed of the plane with the wind:
v² = ( 150 + 50 · cos 45°)² + ( 50 · sin 45°)²
v² = ( 150 + 35.355 )² + 35.355²
v² = 34,356.467 + 1,249.976
v = √35,606.452
v = 188.7 mph

Multiply.
Helen [10]
Okay. When it comes to multiplying decimals, you multiply them just like you would do whole numbers. However, solving them by paper, you would add a decimal point into the answer, depending on how many numbers are behind the decimal point in the numbers being multiplied. In this case, the decimal point will go in front of two numbers, because there are two numbers behind the decimal point in -1.2 and 0.4. Know that the answer will be negative, because there is one negative and one positive number.
Multiply both numbers. -1.2 * 0.4 is -0.48. There. The product is -0.48.
