What are the roots of this quadratic equation?-10x^2+12x-9=0

1 answer:

Ugo [173]2 years ago

7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-10x² + 12x - 9 = 0

Multiply the whole equation by (-1)

10x² - 12x + 9 = 0

a = 10 ; b = -12 ; c = 9

D = b² - 4ac = (-12)² - 4*10*9

= 144 - 360

= -216

√D = √-216 = $\sqrt{2*2 * 3 * 3 * 2 *3 * i^{2}}$

$= 2*3*i*\sqrt{3*2}\\\\= 6i \sqrt{6}$

Roots = $\frac{-b + \sqrt{D}}{2a} ; \frac{-b-\sqrt{D}}{2a}$

$= \dfrac{-[-12]+6i\sqrt{6}}{2*10} \ ; \ \dfrac{-[-12] - 6i\sqrt{6}}{2*10}\\\\= \dfrac{12+6i\sqrt{6}}{20} ; \ \dfrac{12-6i\sqrt{6}}{20}\\\\\\= \dfrac{2*(6+3i\sqrt{6}}{20} ; \ \dfrac{2*(6-3i\sqrt{6}}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{6+3i\sqrt{6}}{10} ; \dfrac{6-3i\sqrt{6}}{10}$

What is the slope of (-7,-1) and (3,8)? Pls show your work

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

$m=\frac{9}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope between any two points, we can use the following slope formula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Let (-7, -1) be (x₁, y₁) and let (3, 8) be (x₂, y₂). Substitute them into the slope formula:

$m=\frac{8-(-1)}{3-(-7)}$

Evaluate:

$m=\frac{9}{10}$

Therefore, the slope between the two points is 9/10.

How to turn this equation: <br> y= -1.02(x-3)^2+9.25<br> into factored form

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

$y=(102x-306-5\sqrt{3774})(102x-306+5\sqrt{3774})$

Step-by-step explanation:

You first equate it to zero to get:

$-1.02(x-3)^2+9.25=0$

Then solve using square root method

$-1.02(x-3)^2=-9.25$

$(x-3)^2=\frac{-9.25}{-1.02}$

$(x-3)^2=\frac{925}{102}$

$x=3\pm\sqrt{\frac{925}{102}}$

Or

$x=3\pm{\frac{5\sqrt{3774}}{102}}$

$x={\frac{306\pm5\sqrt{3774}}{102}}$

Now work it backwards

$102x-(306\pm5\sqrt{3774})=0$

$(102x-306-5\sqrt{3774})(102x-306+5\sqrt{3774})=0$

Hence the factored form is:

$y=(102x-306-5\sqrt{3774})(102x-306+5\sqrt{3774})$

How many ways can choose 7 friends to be invited to the party out of 20 total friends?

Lelu [443]

Answer:

Each of the 7 friends could be present or not present (2 cases) at the party giving total of 27 scenarios.

Since at least one must be present we exclude the case that none of them is present. So the answer would be:

27−1=127.
