Find the x-intercepts, use the zero product property, r(r+7)=0

Mathematics
1 answer:
UkoKoshka [18]2 years ago
4 0

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  r = 0

  r = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no x in the equation, hence there are no x-intercepts.

__

If we assume you want the values of r that satisfy the equation, the zero product property tells you they will be the values that make the factors zero.

The factors are r and (r+7).

The factor r is zero when ...

  r = 0

The factor (r+7) is zero when ...

  r +7 = 0   ⇒   r = -7

The "x-intercepts" are r=0 and r=-7.

Find the value of x and the measure of each labeled angle. (8x - 20ºX (5x + 37)​
11111nata11111 [884]

According to above figure, the angles (8x - 20)° and (5x + 37)° are pairs of vertical opposite angles, so

  • 8x - 20 = 5x + 37

  • 8x - 5x = 37 + 20

  • 3x = 57

  • x = 57 ÷ 3

  • x = 19

Numbers that add to -0.5 and multiply to 1
Oliga [24]
Short Answer
There are two numbers
x1 = -0.25 + 0.9682i   <<<< answer 1
x2 = - 0.25 - 0.9582i   <<<< answer 2 
 
I take it there are two such numbers.
Let one number = x
Let one number = y

x + y = -0.5    
y = - 0.5 - x       (1)
xy = 1               (2)

Put equation 1 into equation 2
xy = 1
x(-0.5 - x) = 1
-0.5x - x^2 = 1               Subtract 1 from both sides.
-0.5x - x^2 - 1 = 0          Order these by powers
-x^2 - 0.5x -1 = 0           Multiply though by - 1
x^2 + 0.5x + 1 = 0         Use the quadratic formula to solve this.

\text{x = }\dfrac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}

a = 1
b = 0.5
c = 1


\text{x = }\dfrac{ -0.5 \pm \sqrt{0.5^{2} - 4*1*1 } }{2*1}

x = [-0.5 +/- sqrt(0.25 - 4)] / 2
x = [-0.5 +/- sqrt(-3.75)] / 2
x = [-0.25 +/- 0.9682i

x1 = -0.25 + 0.9682 i
x2 = -0.25 - 0.9682 i

These two are conjugates. They will add  as x1 + x2 = -0.25 - 0.25 = - 0.50.

The complex parts cancel out.  Getting them to multiply to 1 will be a little more difficult. I'll do that under the check.

Check
(-0.25 - 0.9682i)(-0.25 + 0.9682i)
Use FOIL
F:-0.25 * -0.25 = 0.0625
O: -0.25*0.9682i
I: +0.25*0.9682i
L: -0.9682i*0.9682i = - 0.9375 i^2 = 0.9375

Notice
The two middle terms (labled "O" and "I" ) cancel out. They are of opposite signs.

The final result is 0.9375 and 0.0625 add up to 1

Allen is running a marathon. He would like to finish the race in under 5.5 hours. He has already run 3 hours. The inequality rep
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

x < 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Allen has already run 3 hours and will run x amount more to finish. This is 3+x. He must finish under or less than 5.5 hours. So 3 + x < 5.5. You solve and find x < 2.5.

Solve -2(n + 5) + 6n = 14 for n.
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

n=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -> -2(n+5)+6n=14

Distributive Property -> -2n-10+6n=14

Combine like terms -> 4n-10=14

Add 10 to both sides -> 4n=24

Divide both sides by 4 -> n=6

So n=6
