Answer:-16.8 / 14 = - 1.2 per day

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is:In order to find the value of a function on a particular input, the variable in the function is replaced with the value.We have to find f(8), so putting 8 in place of xSo the value of function at 8 is 6 .

One of the roots of the equation 3x^2+7x−q=0 is −5. Find the other root and q.

statuscvo [17]

Answer: The answer is $\textup{The other root is }\dfrac{8}{3}~\textup{and}q=40.Step-by-step explanation: The given quadratic equation is[tex]3x^2+7x-q=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-\dfrac{7}{3}x-\dfrac{q}{3}=0.$

Also given that -5 is one of the roots, we are to find the other root and the value of 'q'.

Let the other root of the equation be 'p'. So, we have

$p-5=-\dfrac{7}{3}\\\\\\\Rightarrow p=5-\dfrac{7}{3}\\\\\\\Rightarrow p=\dfrac{8}{3},$

and

$p\times(-5)=-\dfrac{q}{3}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{8}{3}\times 5=\dfrac{q}{3}\\\\\\\Rightarrow q=40.$

Thus, the other root is $\dfrac{8}{3}$ and the value of 'q' is 40.

For this case we have an equation in which we must apply operations to rewrite it in an equivalent way. We must start by raising both sides of the equation to the square. Thus, we eliminate the square root of the left side of equality and finally solve the binomial of the right side of equality.

So we have:

$\sqrt {x ^ 2 + 81} = x + 10\\(\sqrt {x ^ 2 + 81}) ^ 2 = (x + 10) ^ 2\\x ^ 2 + 81 = (x + 10) ^ 2$
