Let's actually find the roots, using the quadratic formula:
<span>p(x)=x^2+x+3 gives us a=1, b=1 and c=3.
-1 plus or minus sqrt(1^2-4(1)(3))
Then x = -----------------------------------------------
2
The discriminant here is negative, so the roots x will be complex:
-1 plus or minus sqrt(-11) -1 plus or minus i*sqrt(11)
x = ---------------------------------- = -------------------------------------
2 2
These are irrational roots; they cannot be expressed as the ratios of integers.</span>
L(1, -4)=(xL, yL)→xL=1, yL=-4
M(3, -2)=(xM, yM)→xM=3, yM=-2
Slope of side LM: m LM = (yM-yL) / (xM-xL)
m LM = ( -2 - (-4) ) / (3-1)
m LM = ( -2+4) / (2)
m LM = (2) / (2)
m LM = 1
The quadrilateral is the rectangle KLMN
The oposite sides are: LM with NK, and KL with NK
In a rectangle the opposite sides are parallel, and parallel lines have the same slope, then:
Slope of side LM = m LM = 1 = m NK = Slope of side NK
Slope of side NK = m NK = 1
Slope of side KL = m KL = m MN = Slope of side MN
The sides KL and LM (consecutive sides) are perpendicular (form an angle of 90°), then the product of their slopes is equal to -1:
(m KL) (m LM) = -1
Replacing m LM = 1
(m KL) (1) = -1
m KL = -1 = m MN
Answer:
Slope of side LM =1
Slope of side NK =1
Slope of side KL = -1
Slope of side MN = -1
Answer:
$ 75.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information above,
List price of model II = $240
Sale price of the clearance sale is 1/4 off the list price of Model II microwave oven and additional 1/5 of the sale price for oven that are scratched and dented.
Therefore,
Let the sale price be X,
= (1/4)*(list price) + (1/5)*X
X = (1/4)*(240) + (1/5)*X
X = 60 + (1/5)X
Solving for X,
X - (1/5)X = 60
(4/5)X = 60
X = (60*5)/4
= $75.
