We can factor by grouping. To do so, we multiply the leading coefficient with the constant at the end. In other words, a times c (ax^2 + bx + c).
15*-4 = -60
Now we need to split the b term into two pieces that multiply to -60 and add to 4.
-6 and 10 will work.
Now group one part of b with the 15x^2 and the other part with -4.
(15x^2 + 10x) + (-6x - 4)
Now factor both terms.
5x(3x+2) - 2(3x+2)
3x+2 is one of our factors and 5x-2 is the other.
(3x+2)(5x-2)=0
Now just find the zeros.
3x+2 = 0
3x = -2
x = -2/3
And
5x-2 = 0
5x = 2
x = 2/5
So the answer is x = -2/3 and x = 2/5
Answer:
B. 40 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
— Estimating
The rectangle enclosing the path has sides of length 9 m and 14 m, so its perimeter is 2(9+14) = 46 m. The distance covered will be shorter than that.
The distance from A to C is longer than the distance from D to C, so we know the distance will be longer than 2·14+9 = 37 m.
Only one answer choice fits in the range 37 < d < 46.
____
— Detailed calculation
The distance from B to C is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides 9 and 12. You will recognize that these side lengths are 3 times the side lengths of a 3-4-5 right triangle, so the hypotenuse distance is 3·5 = 15 meters.
The circuit length is ...
AB +BC +CD +DA = 2 + 15 + 14 + 9 = 40 . . . . meters
Answer:
- amount lent: ₹6000
- interest received: Kamal, ₹600; Anand, ₹615.
Step-by-step explanation:
For principal P invested at simple interest rate r, the returned value in t years is ...
A = P(1 +rt)
If K is Kamal's returned value, the given numbers tell us ...
K = P(1 +0.05·2) = 1.1P
__
For principal P invested at compound interest rate r, with interest compounded annually for t years, the returned value is ...
A = P(1 +r)^t
If A is Anand's returned value, the given numbers tell us ...
A = P(1.05)² = 1.1025P
This latter amount is RS.15 more than the former one, so we have ...
1.1025P = 1.1P +15
0.0025P = 15 . . . . . . . . subtract 1.1P
P = 6000 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.0025 . . . . the amount lent
Kamal received 1.1P -P = 0.1P = 600 on the investment.
Each lent ₹6000. Kamal received ₹600 in interest; Anand received ₹615 in interest.
Answer:f⁻¹(x) =
Explanation:To get the inverse of a function, we have to follow these steps:1- replace f(x) with y
2- swap the x and y variables
3- solve for y
4- replace y with f⁻¹(x)
Applying this to the given as follows:f(x) =
Step 1: replace f(x) with y:y =
Step 2: swap the x and y variables:x =
Step 3: solve for y:7x = 4y - 3
4y = 7x - 3
y =
Step 4: replace y with f⁻¹(x):f⁻¹(x) =
