Answer: 1:  x=3, x=1

2:  x= -5

3:  There are 2 real solutions.

4:  There are 2 real solutions.

5:  There are no real solutions.

6.  There is 1 real solution.

7.  

8.  x= -6, x = -2

9.  x = -1/6, x=1

10.  

Explanation:

1.  The quadratic formula is

Substituting our known information we have:

2.  Rewriting the quadratic in standard form we have x²+10x-25=0. Substituting this into the quadratic formula gives us:

3.  The discriminant is b²-4ac.  For this problem, that is 20²-4(-4)(25)=400--400=800.  Since this is greater than 0, there are 2 real solutions.

4.  The discriminant in this problem is 7²-4(2)(-15)=49--120=49+120=169.  This is greater than 0, so there are 2 real solutions.

5.  The discriminant in this problem is 1²-4(-2)(-28)=1-224=-223.  Since this is less than 0, there are no real solutions.

6.  If the discriminant of a quadratic is 0, then by definition there is 1 real solution.

7.  Rewriting the quadratic we have 3x²-4x-2=0.  Using the quadratic formula we have:

8.  Factoring this trinomial we want factors of 12 that sum to 8.  6*2 = 12 and 6+2=8, so those are our factors.  This gives us:

(x+6)(x+2)=0

Using the zero product property we know that either x+6=0 or x+2=0.  Solving these equations we get x= -6 or x= -2.

9.  Factoring this trinomial we want factors of 6(-1)=-6 that sum to -5.  (-6)(1)=-6 and -6+1=-5, so this is how we "split up" the x term:

6x²-6x+1x-1=0

We group together the first two and the last two terms:

(6x²-6x)+(1x-1)=0

Factor the GCF out of each group.  In the first group, that is 6x:

6x(x-1)+(1x-1)=0

In the second group, the GCF is 1:

6x(x-1)+1(x-1)=0

Both terms have a factor of (x-1), so we can factor it out:

(x-1)(6x+1)=0

Using the zero product property, we know either x-1=0 or 6x+1=0.  Solving these equations we get x=1 or x=-1/6.

10.  Substituting our information into the quadratic formula we get:

Step-by-step explanation:

How do you make $2.161616 as a fraction and a mixed number
tatuchka [14]
Essentially, if you want something repeating, you want a 9 in your denominator - 0.22 repeating would be 2/9 or 22/99 and 0.16 repeating would be 16/99. Therefore, 2+16/99 is a mixed number and (198+16)/99=214/99 as a fraction

Heather is a cashier and she can ring up 36 customers in 24 minutes. At this rate how many minutes does it take to ring up 6 cos
Jet001 [13]

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make a table.

So we know that for 24 minutes, Heather can ring up 36 customers. Now, to get 6 customers, you need to divide 36 by 6.

So

36 = 24

/ 6    /6

_______

6 = <u>4</u>

The first three steps in writing f(x) = 40x 5x2 in vertex form are shown. write the function in standard form. f(x) = 5x2 40x fa
Mkey [24]

The function f(x) = 5x² + 40x is a parabola. Then the vertex of the parabola will be at (–4, –80).

<h3>What is the parabola?</h3>

It is the locus of a point that moves so that it is always the same distance from a non-movable point and a given line. The non-movable point is called focus and the non-movable line is called the directrix.

The function f(x) = 5x² + 40x

Then add and subtract 80, then we have

f(x) = 5x² + 40x + 80 – 80

f(x) = 5(x² + 8x + 16) – 80

f(x) = 5(x + 4)² – 80

The vertex of the parabola will be at (–4, –80).

More about the parabola link is given below.

Hey I have a link to the question since its kinda complicated
Natalija [7]
Anyway

so the recursive rule tells the relationship between the previous term and the term we want to find

given

an=2n+11
it is clear that the first term is 13
2nd term is 15
3rd term is 17

each term increases by 2
so
a term is equal to the previous term plus 2
an=a(n-1)+2

the first one is the answer
