Answer: x = 8/5, -8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

25x^2 -64 = 0

(5x+8)(5x-8) = 0

x = 8/5, -8/5

Use the discriminant to find the number of real solutions of the equation 3x^2 – 5x + 4 = 0

Virty [35]

To use the discriminant, first identify a, b, and c. In your equation a= 3 b = -5 and c = 4. Now plug into the discriminant b^2 - 4ac. Substituting yields (-5)^2 - 4(3)(4). Simplifying, 25 - 48 = -23. Since the discriminant has a negative value, there is no real solution to this equation.

Suppose a ball is thrown directly upward from a height of 7 feet with an initial velocity of 50 feet per second. Use the quadrat

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

t = 3.3 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

From the formula of vertical motion of an object under gravity we can write the equation

$H = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^{2}$ ....... (1)

Where u is the initial velocity (in feet per second) of throw of the object and t is time of travel in seconds and the value of g i.e. gravitational acceleration is 32 feet/sec².

Now, while a ball is thrown vertically upward with velocity 50 ft/sec from a height of 7 ft then the time of travel of the ball before reaching the ground, the equation (1) will be written as

$- 7 = 50t - \frac{1}{2} \times 32 \times t^{2}$

As we have selected the upward direction as positive so, gravitational acceleration,g will be negative and as the displacement is downward by 7 feet, so it will be negative.

⇒ 16t² - 50t - 7 = 0 ........ (2)

Now, applying Sridhar Acharya formula,

$t = \frac{-(-50) + \sqrt{(-50)^{2} - 4(16)(-7)}}{2(16)}$ {Neglecting the negative root as t can not be negative}
