Answer:

9.09%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find percent decrease you have to use this equation:

Percent Decrease = \frac{Initial -New}{Initial} x 100

Initial = 49.5

New = 45

Plug in and solve:

PD = \frac{49.5-45}{49.5} x 100\\\\PD = \frac{4.5}{49.5} x 100 \\\\PD = 0.0909 x 100\\\\PD = 9.09

The percent decrease is 9.09%

Prove that the roots of x2+(1-k)x+k-3=0 are real for all real values of k​
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Roots are not real

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove : The roots of x^2 +(1-k)x+k-3=0x

2

+(1−k)x+k−3=0 are real for all real values of k ?

Solution :

The roots are real when discriminant is greater than equal to zero.

i.e. b^2-4ac\geq 0b

2

−4ac≥0

The quadratic equation x^2 +(1-k)x+k-3=0x

2

+(1−k)x+k−3=0

Here, a=1, b=1-k and c=k-3

Substitute the values,

We find the discriminant,

D=(1-k)^2-4(1)(k-3)D=(1−k)

2

−4(1)(k−3)

D=1+k^2-2k-4k+12D=1+k

2

−2k−4k+12

D=k^2-6k+13D=k

2

−6k+13

D=(k-(3+2i))(k+(3+2i))D=(k−(3+2i))(k+(3+2i))

For roots to be real, D ≥ 0

But the roots are imaginary therefore the roots of the given equation are not real for any value of k.
