Given:
The function, f(x) = -2x^2 + x + 5
Quadratic equation: 0 = -2x^2 + x +5
where a = -2
b = 1
c = 5
The discriminate b^2 - 4ac = 41
To solve for the zeros of the quadratic function, use this formula:
x = ( -b +-√ (b^2 - 4ac) ) / 2a
x = ( 1 + √41 ) / 4 or 1.85
x = ( 1 - √41 ) / 4 or -1.35
Therefore, the zeros of the quadratic equation are 1.85 and -1.35.
Answer:
<u>Part 1:</u>
For Platinum Gym:
90 + 30x
For Super Fit Gym:
200 + 20x
<u>Part 2:</u> $270
<u>Part 3:</u> $320
<u>Part 4:</u> 11 months
<u>Part 5:</u> See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part 1:</u>
Let "x" be the number of months:
For Platinum Gym:
90 + 30x
For Super Fit Gym:
200 + 20x
<u>Part 2:</u>
We put x = 6 in platinum gym's equation and get our answer.
90 + 30x
90 + 30(6)
90 + 180
=$270
<u>Part 3:</u>
We put x = 6 into super fit's equation and get our answer.
200 + 20x
200 + 20(6)
200 + 120
=$320
<u>Part 4:</u>
To find the number of months for both gyms to cost same, we need to equate both equations and solve for x:
90 + 30x = 200 + 20x
10x = 110
x = 11
So 11 months
<u>Part 5:</u>
We know for 11 months, they will cost same. Let's check for 10 months and 12 months.
In 10 months:
Platinum = 90 + 30(10) = 390
Super Fit = 200 + 20(10) = 400
In 12 months:
Platinum = 90 + 30(12) = 450
Super Fit = 200 + 20(12) = 440
Thus, we can see that Platinum Gym is a better deal if you want to get membership for months less than 11 and Super Fit is a better deal if you want to get membership for months greater than 11.
If all students scored the same the score of each student would be 4.5.
Answer:
x = 3
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔABC is a 45°, 45°, 90° triangle. The longest side ( 6 ) can be while AB and CB are x. Because 6 is equal to , you can see that x is equal to 6. Both AB and CB are equal to 6. ΔBDC ( CDB ) is a right triangle ( 30°, 60°, 90° ) so, BD = x, CB = 2x, and CD = . CB is equal to 6 so 2x = 6, x = 3.
The answer is A. 9, 12, 15,
