Mathematics

Answer:

b=7

Step-by-step explanation:

5a(2b – 3a) = 40

Let a=4

5*4(2b-3*4) = 40

20(2b-12) = 40

Divide each side by 20

20/20 (2b-12) = 40/20

2b-12 =2

Add 12 to each side

2b-12+12 = 2+12

2b = 14

Divide by 2

2b/2 = 14/2

b = 7

How do you create a restriction for √z + 8=13 ?
Zinaida [17]
√z = 13 - 8
√z = 5
z = 5²
z = 25
In this case the z can be any number, however z cannot be less than 0 and that is the restriction. (for example; √-1 = irrational number, cannot be solved.)

5000=a-the total

2940=p-the starting amount

.041=r-the rate

1=n-compound (annual)

plug this into a graph :

5000=2940(1+(.041/1))^x

and you get : 13.22

PLEASE ANSWER THIS: look at the pic for question. Thanks!!!
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

\text{D. }b^2-4ac>0

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation b^2-4ac represents the discriminant of a quadratic. It is the part taken from under the radical in the quadratic formula.

For any quadratic:

  • If the discriminant is positive, or greater than 0, the quadratic has two solutions
  • If the discriminant is equal to 0, the quadratic has one distinct real solution (the solution is repeated).
  • If the discriminant is negative, or less than 0, the quadratic has zero solutions

In the graph, we see that the equation intersects the x-axis at two distinct points. Therefore, the quadratic has two solutions and the discriminant must be positive. Thus, we have b^2-4ac>0.
