Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Moving all terms of the quadratic to one side, we have
.
A quadratic has one real solution when the discriminant is equal to 0. In a quadratic
, the discriminant is
.
(The discriminant is more commonly known as
, but I changed the variable since we already have a
in the quadratic given.)
In the quadratic above, we have
,
, and
. Plugging this into the formula for the discriminant, we have
.
Using the distributive property to expand and simplifying, the expression becomes

Setting the discriminant equal to 0 gives
.
We can then solve the equation as usual: first, divide by 2 on both sides:
.
Squaring both sides gives
,
and subtracting 5 from both sides, we have

Answer:
y =
x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange 3x - 2y = - 6 into this form
Subtract 3x from both sides
- 2y = - 3x - 6 ( divide all terms by - 2 )
y =
x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 
• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence
y =
x + c ← partial equation of parallel line
To find c substitute (4, 2) into the partial equation
2 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 6 = - 4
y =
x - 4 ← equation of parallel line
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume it's a rectangle, therefore:
P = 50
a = 15 ft
b = ?
P = 2a + 2b
50 = 2 * 15 + 2b
50 = 30 + 2b
2b = 50 - 30
2b = 20
b = 10
Okay. so, to find the answer for this, you should set the equation as 10.25x = 8,425. "x" equals the number of hours. What you should do is divide each side by 10.25 to isolate the "x". When you do that 8,425/10.25, you get 821.951 and other numbers or 822 hours when rounded to the nearest whole number. x is approximately 822. You would have to work about 822 hours to earn $8,425.
