<h2>✏️ QUADRATIC FORMULA</h2>

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

<h2>solution</h2>

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution

(1): "x2" was replaced by "x^2".

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 3 • -8 = -24

Step-2 : Find two factors of -24 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 5 .

-24 + 1 = -23

-12 + 2 = -10

-8 + 3 = -5

-6 + 4 = -2

-4 + 6 = 2

-3 + 8 = 5 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -3 and 8

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Add 1 to both sides of the equation :

x = 1

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Solve : 3x+8 = 0

Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation :

3x = -8

Divide both sides of the equation by 3:

x = -8/3 = -2.667

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex . Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) . We know this even before plotting "y" because the coefficient of the first term, 3 , is positive (greater than zero).

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is -0.8333

Plugging into the parabola formula -0.8333 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :

y = 3.0 * -0.83 * -0.83 + 5.0 * -0.83 - 8.0

or y = -10.083

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••♪•••••••••••••

Root plot for : y = 3x2+5x-8

Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={-0.83}

Vertex at {x,y} = {-0.83,-10.08}

x -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at {x,y} = {-2.67, 0.00}

Root 2 at {x,y} = { 1.00, 0.00}

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of x , which is 5/3 , divide by two, giving 5/6 , and finally square it giving 25/36

Add 25/36 to both sides of the equation :

On the right hand side we have :

8/3 + 25/36 The common denominator of the two fractions is 36 Adding (96/36)+(25/36) gives 121/36

So adding to both sides we finally get :

x2+(5/3)x+(25/36) = 121/36

Adding 25/36 has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

x2+(5/3)x+(25/36) =

(x+(5/6)) • (x+(5/6)) =

(x+(5/6))2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

x2+(5/3)x+(25/36) = 121/36 and

x2+(5/3)x+(25/36) = (x+(5/6))2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

(x+(5/6))2 = 121/36

We'll refer to this Equation as Eq. #4.2.1

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

(x+(5/6))2 is

(x+(5/6))2/2 =

(x+(5/6))1 =

x+(5/6)

Now, applying the Square Root Principle to Eq. #4.2.1 we get:

x+(5/6) = √ 121/36

Subtract 5/6 from both sides to obtain:

x = -5/6 + √ 121/36

Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative

x2 + (5/3)x - (8/3) = 0

has two solutions:

x = -5/6 + √ 121/36

or

x = -5/6 - √ 121/36

Note that √ 121/36 can be written as

√ 121 / √ 36 which is 11 / 6

4.3 Solving 3x2+5x-8 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula, x , the solution for Ax2+Bx+C = 0 , where A, B and C are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

- B ± √ B2-4AC

x = ————————

2A

In our case, A = 3

B = 5

C = -8

Accordingly, B2 - 4AC =

25 - (-96) =

121

Applying the quadratic formula :

-5 ± √ 121

x = ——————

6

Can √ 121 be simplified ?

Yes! The prime factorization of 121 is

11•11

To be able to remove something from under the radical, there have to be 2 instances of it (because we are taking a square i.e. second root).

√ 121 = √ 11•11 =

± 11 • √ 1 =

± 11

So now we are looking at:

x = ( -5 ± 11) / 6

Two real solutions:

x =(-5+√121)/6=(-5+11)/6= 1.000

or:

x =(-5-√121)/6=(-5-11)/6= -2.667

Earthquakes can cause all of the above.

trigger other earthquakes - when there is a large magnitude earthquake it
lead to shake the earth's surface. Thus it can create more earthquakes on the same place or neighboring places.

cause billions of dollars - when there is a large disturbance it can destroy big buildings, homes, etc. Which is basically a billion dollar loss.

cause tsunami - If there is a disturbance in the earth's surface near sea's, etc there is chance of tsunami.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

C.) In perfect health.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an average weight of 15kg and a standard deviation of 3kg for children of 4 years. Since the weight is based on a normal Z - distribution of 95% which is mean ± 2(standard deviations)

Mean weight interval is :

15 - 2(3) ; 15 + 2(3)

(9 ; 21) ; this weight interval could be interpreted to mean the normal or perfect weight value.

Therefore, given that the child weighs 12kg

Since, 12 kg falls within in the interval, we can conclude that the child is in perfect health.
