Answer: False
=============================================
Explanation:
I'll use x in place of p.
The original equation 10x^2-5x = -8 becomes 10x^2-5x+8 = 0 after moving everything to one side.
Compare this to ax^2+bx+c = 0
We have
Plug those three values into the discriminant formula below
d = b^2 - 4ac
d = (-5)^2 - 4(10)(8)
d = 25 - 40*8
d = 25 - 320
d = -295
The discriminant is negative, which means we have no real solutions. If your teacher has covered complex or imaginary numbers, then you would say that the quadratic has 2 complex roots. If your teacher hasn't covered this topic yet, then you'd simply say "no real solutions".
Either way, this quadratic doesn't have exactly one solution. That only occurs when d = 0. Therefore, the original statement is false.
F(-3) = 8
Plug -3 into x and just solve it.
The number of standard deviations from the mean for a man 72 inches tall is
Z = (72 -69.3)/2.8 ≈ 0.964
Answer:
.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Try and take it step by step.
-2.3 + 10.8 + (-8.4)
First let's rearrange and combine the negatives.
-2.3 + (-8.4) + 10.8
-2.3 + (-8.4) = - 10.7
Let's rewrite
10.8 - 10.7 and solve!
10.8 - 10.7 = .1
Answer:
If the time passed is only 3 months, then it is $2040
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the quarterly compounded interest equation for this problem: P(1 + r/n)^nt
Step 1: Find out how much 3 months is in a year
<em>In this case, 3/12 which is 1/4</em>
Step 2: Plug in known variables into equation
2000[1 + (0.08)/4)]^[(4)(1/4)]
Step 3: Solve/Plug in calc
You will get $2040
If the time passed in the problem is 1 year, then we can be able to solve how much money he earned per quarter. However, since only 3 months have elapsed, then he has only earned $2040.
