Answer:

x ≤ 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The ≤ symbol means "greater than or equal to". Since it is 'no more' than 18, that means it can be 18 or less. Thus, less than OR equal to. Hope I helped.

What is the value of K?

Ksju [112]

Answer: The value of k for which one root of the quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0 is six times the other is k = 3.
Let's look into the solution step by step.

Explanation:

Given: A quadratic equation, kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0

Let the two zeros of the equation be α and β.

According to the given question, if one of the roots is α the other root will be 6α.

Thus, β = 6α

Hence, the two zeros are α and 6α.

We know that for a given quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0

The sum of the zeros is expressed as,

α + β = - b / a

The product of the zeros is expressed as,

αβ = c / a

For the given quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0,

a = k, b = -14, c = 8

The sum of the zeros is:

α + 6α = 14 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]

⇒ 7α = 14 / k

⇒ α = 2 / k --------------- (1)

The product of the zeros is:

⇒ α × 6α = 8 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]

⇒ 6α 2 = 8 / k

⇒ 6 (2 / k)2 = 8 / k [From (1)]

⇒ 6 × (4 / k) = 8

⇒ k = 24 / 8

⇒ k = 3

Given points A(-1, -2) and B(2, 4) where AP: BP=1:2, find the locus of point P.

koban [17]

Answer:

$x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$A = (-1,-2)$

$B = (2,4)$

$AP:BP = 1 : 2$

Required

The locus of P

$AP:BP = 1 : 2$

Express as fraction

$\frac{AP}{BP} = \frac{1}{2}$

Cross multiply

$2AP = BP$

Calculate AP and BP using the following distance formula:

$d = \sqrt{(x - x_1)^2 + (y - y_1)^2}$

So, we have:

$2 * \sqrt{(x - -1)^2 + (y - -2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}$

$2 * \sqrt{(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}$

Take square of both sides

$4 * [(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2] = (x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2$

Evaluate all squares

$4 * [x^2 + 2x + 1 + y^2 +4y + 4] = x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 - 8y + 16$

Collect and evaluate like terms

$4 * [x^2 + 2x + y^2 +4y + 5] = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20$

Open brackets

$4x^2 + 8x + 4y^2 +16y + 20 = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20$

Collect like terms

$4x^2 - x^2 + 8x + 4x + 4y^2 -y^2 +16y + 8y + 20 - 20 = 0$

$3x^2 + 12x + 3y^2 +24y = 0$

Divide through by 3

$x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y = 0$

An urn contains 5 red, 6 blue, and 8 green balls. If a set of 3 balls is randomly selected, what is the probability that each of

monitta

Answer:

As a fraction, the answer is exactly 86/969

In decimal form, the answer is approximately 0.08875

=====================================================

Work Shown:

The assumption is that no replacements are made for each selection.

5 red, 6 blue, 8 green

5+6+8 = 19 total

A = P(3 red) = (5/19)*(4/18)*(3/17) = 10/969

B = P(3 blue) = (6/19)*(5/18)*(4/17) = 20/969

C = P(3 green) = (8/19)*(7/18)*(6/17) = 56/969

D = P(3 all same color)

D = A+B+C

D = 10/969 + 20/969 + 56/969

D = (10+20+56)/969

D = 86/969

D = 0.08875
