Answer:

m=12

Explanation:

Given any quadratic function, y=ax²+bx+c.

We can determine the nature of the roots of such quadratic function by examining the discriminant, D where:

D=b^2-4ac

• If D>0, the roots are real and unequal.

,

• If D=0, the roots are real and equal.

,

• If D<0, the roots are complex.

In our given equation:

\begin{gathered} y=18x^2+mx+2 \\ a=18,b=m,c=2 \end{gathered}

For the function to have exactly one zero, the value of D=0.

\begin{gathered} D=b^2-4ac=m^2-4(18)(2)=m^2-144 \\ D=0\implies m^2-144=0 \\ Add\text{ 144 to both sides.} \\ m^2=144 \\ Take\text{ the square root of both sides} \\ \sqrt{m^2}=\sqrt{144} \\ m=12 \end{gathered}

The value of m for which the function will have one zero is 12.

AB = x - 10, BC = x + 2, and AC = 28. Find BC.<br><br>Please help!
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

BC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC

28 = x-10 + x+2

Combine like terms

28 = 2x -8

Add 8 to each side

28+8 = 2x-8+8

36 = 2x

Divide by 2

36/2 = 2x/2

18 =x

We want to find BC

BC = x+2

     =18+2

     =20

Jodi is cutting out pieces of paper that measures 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches from a larger sheet of paper that has an area of 100
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

The possible dimensions of the larger piece of paper that could give us 1000 square inches for area are:

1×1000; 2×500; 4×250; 5×200; 8×125; 10×100; 20×50; 25×40

We want to use dimensions that will allow us to cut 8 1/2 by 11 sheets.  This means that the smallest dimension needs to be larger than 8 1/2 inches; this leaves us with

10×100; 20×50; 25×40

For the first one, 10×100, we can have 1 row across the 10 inch dimension, and 100/11 = 9 columns across the other dimension.  This gives us 1×9 = 9 sheets.

For the 20×50, we can have 2 rows across the 10 inch dimension and 50/11 = 4 columns; this gives us 2×4 = 8 sheets.

For the 25×40, we can have 2 rows across the 25 inch dimension (we lack half an inch of having 3) and 40/11 = 3 columns; this gives us 2×3 = 6 sheets.

The largest number of sheets was 9.
