Using the quadratic formula to solve x? + 20 = 2x, what are the values of x?

Sergio [31]

I am not sure if the “+” was supposed to go there or if that was just a typo, so I do apologize if this is wrong... but if it doesn’t belong in the equation at all, 20 = 2X is a fairly simply multiplication problem. You are to divide both sides by the 2 and you should get X = 10, because 2 goes into 20, 10 times; and the 2 goes into 2 only once, therefore the 2 now gets cancelled out.

Answer: 20 divided by 2 = 2x divided by 2 is now 10 = X.

Really hope this helps you, have a good day :)

Rewrite 1/100,000,000 as a power of 10

yarga [219]

1/100,000,000 , note that 100,000,000 = 10⁸ , then:

1/100,000,000 = 1/10⁸
Remember that 1/aⁿ = a⁻ⁿ

Hence 1/100,000,000 = 1/10⁸ = 10⁻⁸

A club is selling hats and jackets as a fundraiser. Their budget is $1500, and they want toorder at least 250 items. Each hat co

Tom [10]

Let H be the number hats and J the number of jackets. Then, we can write,

$5H+8J\le1500$

Now, since they want 250 items at least, we can write

$H+J\le250$

Hence, the system of inequalities is

$\begin{gathered} 5H+8J\le1500 \\ H+J\le250 \end{gathered}$

Use the discriminant to determine the number and type of solutions the equation has.

lidiya [134]

Discriminant = square root (b^2 -4*a*c)
square root (64 -4*1*12) =
square root (16) =
4
Therefore it has 2 rational soltions

Match each question to the correct problem.

Maslowich

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>(Check attached images).</em>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

<h3>Exercise 1.</h3>

a. Convert to decimals.

To order the numbers from least to greaters, convert them to decimals and compare.

$5.2(percent)=0.052\\ \\\frac{1}{7} =0.1429\\\\ -0.8=-0.8000\\ \\\frac{-11}{5} =-2.2$

b. Select the second least number.

-0.8.

<h3>Exercise 2.</h3>

a. Convert to decimals.

$-3.4(percent)=-0.034\\ \\-0.031\\\\ -0.2\\ \\-\sqrt{0.8}= -0.8944$

b. Select the correct number.

$-\frac{1}{5}$ .

<h3>Exercise 3.</h3>

a. Convert to decimals.

<em>After seeing that there are negative and positive numbers, and with the premise that negative numbers are </em><u><em>always</em></u><em> lesser than positive numbers, we'll only compare the positive numbers.</em>

<em>59%=0.59</em>

<em>3/5=0.6</em>

<em />

b. Select the correct number.

3/5.

<h3>Exercise 4.</h3>

a. Convert to decimals.

-0.35

-3.5%= -0.035

b. Conclude.

Seeing that -3.5% is less than -0.35, the symbol that makes the statement true is ">".

<h3>Exercise 5.</h3>

a. Try to visually estimate b.

B appears to have a value of -0.9.

b. Convert the numbers to decimals.

-3.4%= -0.034

-0.031

-1/5= -0.2

$-\sqrt{0.8}= -0.8944$

c. Select the correct answer.

<em>Since we estimated the value of b as -0.9, the number that best adequates to its value is </em> $-\sqrt{0.8}$ .

<h3>Exercise 6.</h3>

a. Convert to decimals.

<em>After seeing that there are negative and positive numbers, and with the premise that negative numbers are </em><u><em>always</em></u><em> lesser than positive numbers, we'll only compare the positive numbers.</em>

5.2%= 0.052

1/7= 0.1429

b. Select the correct number.

5.2% is the second largest.

<h3>Exercise 7.</h3>

a. Convert to decimals.

6/7= 0.857143

0.857

b. Select the correct answer.

Seeing that 0.857 is marked as an approximate by the

ellipsis, and considering that 6/7 is an irrational numbers, we can conclude that the number that better fits the situation and makes the statement true is "=".

<h3>Exercise 8.</h3>

a. Convert to decimals.

<em>After seeing that there are negative and positive numbers, and with the premise that negative numbers are </em><u><em>always</em></u><em> lesser than positive numbers, we'll only compare the negative numbers.</em>

<em>-4.6</em>

<em /> $-\sqrt{21} =-4.5826$

b. Select the correct answer.

The smallest number is -4.6.
