Find the roots of h(t) = (139kt)^2 − 69t + 80

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The positive value of $k$ will result in exactly one real root is approximately 0.028.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $h(t) = 19321\cdot k^{2}\cdot t^{2}-69\cdot t +80$ , roots are those values of $t$ so that $h(t) = 0$ . That is:

$19321\cdot k^{2}\cdot t^{2}-69\cdot t + 80=0$ (1)

Roots are determined analytically by the Quadratic Formula:

$t = \frac{69\pm \sqrt{4761-6182720\cdot k^{2} }}{38642}$

$t = \frac{69}{38642} \pm \sqrt{\frac{4761}{1493204164}-\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321} }$

The smaller root is $t = \frac{69}{38642} - \sqrt{\frac{4761}{1493204164}-\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321} }$ , and the larger root is $t = \frac{69}{38642} + \sqrt{\frac{4761}{1493204164}-\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321} }$ .

$h(t) = 19321\cdot k^{2}\cdot t^{2}-69\cdot t +80$ has one real root when $\frac{4761}{1493204164}-\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321} = 0$ . Then, we solve the discriminant for $k$ :

$\frac{80\cdot k^{2}}{19321} = \frac{4761}{1493204164}$

$k \approx \pm 0.028$

The positive value of $k$ will result in exactly one real root is approximately 0.028.

Use the following information for problems 1 – 3. Suppose you sign a contract for an annual salary of $50,000 with a guaranteed

erik [133]

Initial salary = $50,000 .

Rate of raise = 5% each year.

Therefore, each next year salary would be 105% that is 1.05 times.

5% of 50,000 = 0.05 × 50000 = 2500.

Therefore raise is $2500 each year.

According to geometric sequence first term 50000 and common ratio 1.05.

Applying geometric sequence formula

$a_n = ar^{n-1}$

1) $a_n = 50000(1.05)^{n-1}$

2) In order to find salary in 5 years we need to plug n=5, we get

$a_5 = 50000(1.05)^{5-1}= 50000(1.05)^4$

= 50000(1.21550625)

3) In order to find the total salary in 10 years we need to apply sum of 10 terms formula of a geometric sequence.

$S_n = \frac{a(1-r^n}{1-r}$

Plugging n=10, a = 50000 and r= 1.05.

$S_10 = \frac{50000(1-(1.05)^{10}}{1-1.05}$

$S_10 = \frac{50000(0.050)^{10}}{0.05}$

= 628894.62678.

<h3>Therefore , you will have earned $ 628894.62678 in total salary by the end of your 10th year.</h3>

Two planes are flying towards each other. In 45 minutes, the two planes will be

ELEN [110]

The distance between the two planes will be 800 miles.

It should be noted that the total speed of the two planes will be the sum of their individual speeds. Also, the planes have 1 hour to meet each other.

From the information given, the distance between the planes is 200 miles after they flew for 45 minutes. Therefore, the remaining distance will be:

= 1 hour - 45 minutes = 15 minutes.

The distance between the planes will then be:

= 200/15 × 60

= 200 × 4

= 800 miles

Therefore, the distance between the two planes will be 800 miles.

What is 1/8 - 7/8 ? ( its a fraction)

kap26 [50]

Answer:

1/8-7/8= -3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8-7/8 is just like 7/8-1/8 but is the opposite

7/8-1/8=6/8 or 3/4

1/8+6/8=7/8

1/8-1/8=0

0-6/8= -6/8 or -3/4
