Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredth.

Bad White [126]

Answer:

The final answers are x = 1 OR x = -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation is x^2 -3 = -2x

Rewriting it in quadratic form as:- x^2 +2x -3 = 0.

a = 1, b = 2, c = -3.

Using Quadratic formula as follows:- x = ( -b ± √(b² -4ac) ) / (2a)

x = ( -2 ± √(4 -4*1*-3) ) / (2*1)

x = ( -2 ± √(4 +12) ) / (2)

x = ( -2 ± √(16) ) / (2)

x = ( -2 ± 4 ) / (2)

x = (-2+4) / (2) OR x = (-2-4) / (2)

x = 2/2 OR x = -6/2

x = 1 OR x = -3

Hence, final answers are x = 1 OR x = -3.

Julie has 5 cherry lollipops,1 lime lollipops, and 2 grape lollipops in a bag. She is going to select one lollipop, replace the

Georgia [21]

Answer: $\dfrac{15}{32}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of cherry lollipop = 5

The total number of lollipop = 8

the number of lollipops other than grape =6

The probability of selecting a cherry lollipop is given by :_

$\text{P(Cherry)}=\dfrac{5}{8}$

The probability of selecting a lollipop other than grape is given by :_

$\text{P(Other than grape)}=\dfrac{6}{8}$

Since, there is replacement , then the events are independent of each other.

Now, the probability that Julie will select a cherry lollipop and then a lollipop other than grape is given by :-

$\text{P(Cherry and other than grape)}=\dfrac{5}{8}\times\dfrac{6}{8}=\dfrac{15}{32}$

Hence, the required probability = $\dfrac{15}{32}$

The length of a swimming pool is 4 feet longer than 2 times its width. If the perimeter of the pool is 128 feet, what is the wid

alexandr1967 [171]

P = 2(L + W)
P = 128
L = 2W + 4

128 = 2(2W + 4 + W)
128 = 2(3W + 4)
128 = 6W + 8
128 - 8 = 6W
120 = 6W
120/6 = W
20 = W <=== width is 20 ft

L = 2W + 4
L = 2(20) + 4
L = 40 + 4
L = 44 <=== length is 44 ft

This is VERY URGENT, so 50 points if you answer correctly!

Answer:

The circumference is 31.43 cm

The ratio of the circumference to the diameter is equal to 3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Thed formular for the circumference of a circle is 2 $\pi$ r or $\pi$ d

where d = diameter and r = radius

if d = 10 cm, and $\pi$ = 3.143, then circumference of the circle can be given as

3.143*10 = 31.43 cm

The ratio of the circumference to the diameter can be given as 31.43:10

and that can be given as 3.143:1

or 3:1, for the nearest whole number
