Answer:
y² - (K- 2)y + 2k +1 = 0
equal roots means D=0
D= b^2 - 4ac
a=1, b= (k-2), c= 2k+1
so,
(k-2)^2 - 4(1)(2k+1) = 0
=> k^2 +4 - 8k -4 = 0
=> k^2 -8k = 0
=> k^2 = 8k
=> k= 8k/k
=> k = 8
Therefore the answer is k= 8
Hope it helps........
ANSWER

EXPLANATION
From the graph, the coordinates of Y are:

We want to find the image of this point after a dilation by a scale factor of -½ about the origin.
The rule for the dilation is :

To find the coordinates of Y', we plug the coordinates of Y.


The first choice is correct.
Answer:
Age= 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a be for age at the moment
(a-3)^2 =6(a+9)
a^2-6a+9=6a+54
a^2-12a-45
(a-15)(a+3)
a=15 or a=-3
Age cannot be negative (-)
Therefore
Age =15
Answer:
here you go
Step-by-step explanation:
18 is 24c/d^5
19 is 48a^/b^3
/ indicates a fraction
^ indicates an exponent
Answer:
d) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
3a = –2b – 7
We have the point (a, -5) so b = -5
Substituting in
3a = -2(-5) -7
3a = 10-7
3a = 3
Divide each side by 3
3a/3 = 3/3
a =1
