Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 9x + 20 = 0

x² - ( 4 + 5) x + 20 = 0

x² - 4x - 5x + 20 = 0

x ( x - 4 ) - 5 (x - 4 ) = 0

(x - 4 ) ( x - 5 ) = 0

Either

x - 4 =0

x = 4

x - 5 =0

x = 5

x = 4 and 5

Hope it will help :)

Mark records his science scores in each monthly assessment over a period of 5 months. In the first assessment he scores 76%. In

Trava [24]

This is the complete question:

Mark records his science scores in each monthly assessment over a period of 5 months. In the first assessment he scores 76%. In the second assessment he scores 73%. After that, his scores keep increasing by 2% in every assessment. Assume that x represents the number of assessments since he starts recording and y represents the scores in each assessment, which of the following describes the situation?

a. a relation only b.

b. neither a function nor a relation

c. a function only

d. both a relation and a function

Answer:

d. both a relation and a function

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation is any statement, either verbal or mathematical, that connects, interrelates or associates, two or more elements (objects, persons, variables).

The text describes a situation where the scores in the assesments are related to the number of statements since Mark starts recording, hence this is a relation.

<h2>Is this relation a function or not?</h2>

In order for a relation be a function, the association has to be unambiguos. This means that for a given input only one output can exist. If an input can have two or more outputs, then you can not determine which is the output for that input. This is what defines whether a relation is a function or not.

In the situation described in the text, x is the input, i.e. the number of assessments since Mark starts recording the scores. Definetely, the number of assessment is not repeated: there is only one first assessment, only one second assessment, only one third assessment, ... the number of assessment cannot not get repeated. Of course, if the input is not repeated, there is only one output associated to the input (each assessment has just one associated score) and the relation is a function.

In the form of a paragraph, explain in complete sentences, your answers to the following questions. Include the final answer in

Yanka [14]

Lisa is an avid runner and is training for a marathon, so she runs everyday to achieve this purpose. In this way, she goes out to run for six days, so we have the following data set regarding the miles she runs:

1st day = 3.2 miles
2nd day = 7.5 miles
3rd day = 9.8 miles
4th day = 11.5 miles
5th day = 2.9 miles
6th day = 3.5 miles

Finally, she ran a total of:

3.2+7.5+9.8+11.5+2.9+3.5 = 38.4 miles

What was the average distance of each run?

This result can be get as the sum of each run (or the total of miles she run) divided by the numbers of days she ran.

 $A=\frac{38.4}{6}=6.4mi$

Lisa's goal for this week is to run an average of 6 miles per day. How many miles does she need to run tomorrow (the 7th day) in order to achieve her goal of 6 miles per day for the week?

Let's name x the distance she must run tomorrow. Therefore, the equation for this purpose is given as follows:

 $\frac{3.2+7.5+9.8+11.5+2.9+3.5+x}{7}=6$

∴ $\frac{38.4+x}{7}=6$

Isolating x:

$38.4+x=42$

∴ $x=42-38.4=3.6$

Therefore, she need to run:

$\boxed{3.6mi}$ in order to achieve the goal of 6 miles per day.

How do you write 75% as a fraction?

dem82 [27]

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

.74(75%) is equal to 75/100

The greatest common factor is 25, so divide 75 by 25 and 100 by 25.

75/25=3 100/25=4

So, 75/100 simplified is 3/4.
