Answer:

a. x = 2 , x = -5

b. no real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

a. x² + 3x – 10

= x² - 2x + 5x - 10

= x (x²/x - 2x/x) + 5 (5x/5 - 2*5/5)

= (x - 2) (x + 5)

x - 2 = 0 x + 5 = 0

+ 2 +2 -5 -5

-------------- ---------------

x = 2 x = -5

x = 2 , x = -5

b. 2x² - 4x + 3

This can't be solved because the equation has no real roots, and also the discriminant is negative.

Since -6 +6 can be rearranged to 6-6 using the communicative property, we get 6-6 =0 . In addition, -120+(-6) is essentially having -120+ 1*(-6), and 1 times a number is simply that number, so we have -120-6=-126

If a wheelchair-marathon racer moving at 13.1 miles per hour expends energy at a rate of 645 calories per hour, how much energy

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

$1290$ calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The racer moves at $13.1$ miles per hour expends energy at a rate of $645$ calories per hour.

To find: Energy in calories, required to complete a marathon race $26.2$ miles at this pace.

Solution: We have,

The racer moves at $13.1$ miles per hour.

The racer expends energy at a rate of $645$ calories per hour.

So, energy expended while moving $13.1$ miles $=645$ calories.

Now, energy expended while moving $1$ mile $=\frac{645}{13.1}$ calories.

So, energy expended while moving $26.2$ miles $=\frac{645}{13.1}\times 26.2=645\times 2=1290$ calories.

Hence, $1290$ calories of energy is required to complete a marathon race $26.2$ miles at this pace.

An elevator starts at the basement with 8 people (not including the elevator operator) and discharges them all by the time it re

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

1287

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of people in elevator , n = 8

Number of floors, r = 6

Since they all look alike, arrangement doesn't matter, the we use combination :

(n+r-1 r - 1) = (8+6-1 C 6-1) = 13C5

Recall:

nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!

13C5 = 13! / (13-5)!5!

13C5 = 13*12*11*10*9 / 5*4*3*2*1

= 1287

Write the standard form of the line that passes through the given points. Include your work in your final answer. Type your answ

Nata [24]

Answer: $5x-3y=44$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that , the equation of a line that passes through (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :_

$(y-b)=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}(x-a)$

Standard form of equation of line = $Ax+By=C$

Given points = (7, -3) and (4, -8)

Then, the equation of a line that passes through the points . (7, -3) and (4, -8) is given by -

$(y-(-3))=\dfrac{-8-(-3)}{4-7}(x-7)$

$(y+3)=\dfrac{-8+3}{-3}(x-7)$ [∵ (-)(-)=(+)]

$(y+3)=\dfrac{-5}{-3}(x-7)$

$(y+3)=\dfrac{5}{3}(x-7)$

$3(y+3)=5(x-7)$

$3y+9=5x-35$

$9+35=5x-3y$

$44=5x-3y$

Or $5x-3y=44$

Hence, the required equation :- $5x-3y=44$

$4x^2+12x-7=0\\\\a=4;\ b=12;\ c=-7\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\\Delta=12^2-4\cdot4\cdot(-7)=144+112=256 \ \textgreater \ 0\\\\therefore\\x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\ and\ x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\\\\\sqrt\Delta=\sqrt{256}=16\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-12-16}{2\cdot4}=\dfrac{-28}{8}=\boxed{-\dfrac{7}{2}}\\\\x_2=\dfrac{-12+16}{2\cdot4}=\dfrac{4}{8}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{2}}$
