What are the x-intercepts of y=x^2+2x-15

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex](-5,0)[/tex] and [tex](3,0)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about it.

What two numbers multiply to -15 and add up to 2?

The answers are 5 and -3.

So plug that into the factored form of a parabola.

[tex]y=(x+5)(x-3)[/tex]

To find the x-intercepts, plug in 0 for [tex]y[/tex].

[tex](x+5)(x-3)=0[/tex]

Since we are multiplying, at least one of the terms has to equal 0.

[tex]x+5=0 \\ x-3=0 \\ \\ x=-5,3[/tex]

So the x-intercepts are [tex](-5,0)[/tex] and [tex](3,0)[/tex].

An airplane is at a location 800 miles due west of city X. Another airplane is at a distance of 1,200 miles southwest of city X. The angle at city X created by the paths of the two planes moving away from city X measures 60°. What is the distance between the two airplanes to the nearest mile? Assume that the planes are flying at the same altitude.

Answers

Answer:

The distance between the two airplanes (to the nearest mile) is 1058 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

An airplane A is at a location 800 miles due west of city X. So AX = 800 miles.

Another airplane is at a distance of 1,200 miles southwest of city X. So BX = 1200 miles.

The angle at city X created by the paths of the two planes moving away from city X measures 60°. So angle ∠AXB = 60°.

In triangle ΔAXB, AX = 800 miles, BX = 1200 miles, ∠AXB = 60°.

Using law of cosines:-

AB² = AX² + BX² - 2 * AX * BX * cos(∠AXB).

AB² = 800² + 1200² - 2 * 800 * 1200 * cos(60°).

AB² = 640000 + 1440000 - 2 * 960000 * 1/2

AB² = 2080000 - 960000

AB² = 1120000

AB = √(1120000) = 1058.300524

Hence, the distance between the two airplanes (to the nearest mile) is 1058 miles.

What is the value of f^-1 (2)

Answers

Answer:

2/f is the correct answer.

Final answer:

The value of f^-1(2) refers to the value of x in the original function f(x) that corresponds to f(x) = 2. Essentially, it is asking what value of x, when substituted into the original function, would provide an answer of 2.

Explanation:

The value of f^-1(2) is the pre-image, or the value of the variable x in the original function f(x), that corresponds to f(x) = 2 in the original function. An inverse function undoes the operation of the original function. For instance, if you have a function f(x) = y, the inverse function, denoted f^-1, would give you back x when you input y. Therefore, f^-1(2) asks for the value of x that would result in f(x) = 2 in the original function.

BC=√37

EB=√37

CD=√74

To solve for the area of EBCD we have to plug the numbers into the trapezoid formula 2√37+√37 divided by 2 times √37 =111/2 which that equals 55.5 square units.

The two triangular pyramids are similar. The smaller pyramid has a volume of 52 inches3. What is the volume of the larger pyramid? Round to the nearest tenth. in.3

Answers

Answer:

the volume of the larger pyramid = 175.5 inches³

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the similar

- If two solids are similar,then the ratio between each two

 corresponding dimensions are qual

- Their perimeters have the same ratio

- Their areas have the square of the equal ratio

- Their volumes have the cube of the equal ratio

* Lets solve the problem

- The two triangular pyramids are similar

- The perimeter of the base of the small one = 14 inches

- The perimeter of the base of the big one = 21 inches

∴ The ratio of the similarity = 14/21 = 2/3

∴ The ratio between their volumes is (2/3)³ = 8/27

∵ The volume of the small one = 52 inches³

- W will us the cub of the ratio to find the larger volume

∴ 52/V = 8/27 ⇒ by using the cross multiplication

∴ 52 × 27 = 8 × V

∴ 1404 = 8V ⇒ divide both sides by 8

∴ V = 175.5 inches³

An Easter basket contains eggs of three different colors. Find the total number of eggs in the basket if 2/7 of all eggs are green, 1/4 of all are blue and the rest 26 eggs are red.

Answers

Answer:

15/28

Step-by-step explanation:

2/7 plus 1/4 plus 26 is 15/28

Answer:

Total number of eggs in basket = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Let z be the total number of eggs

Green eggs = [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] × z   ........1

Blue eggs =  [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] × z    .......2

Rest of eggs = 26  ........3

The addition of 1, 2 and 3 is equal to z  

[tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] × z + [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] + 26 = z

[tex]\frac{8z + 7 z}{28}[/tex] + 26 = z                        ∵GCF for 4 and 7 is 28  

[tex]\frac{15z}{28}[/tex]  + 26 = z

15z + (26 × 28) = 28z                ∵ multiply both sides by 28

15z + 728 = 28z

28z - 15z = 728     .......... rearranging above equation

13z = 728  ⇒   z = [tex]\frac{728}{13}[/tex]   ⇒  z = 56

Total number of eggs = z = 56

                                 

Justin made a scale drawing of a rectangular playground. he used the scale 2 inches: 3 feet. His drawing is 18 inches by 24 inches. What is the actual area of the playground?

Answers

Answer:-Steps-

1.)Divide 18 by 2

(18/2=9)

2.)Divide 24 by 2

(24/2=12)

3.)Multiply 18 and 3

(18 x 3 = 54)

4.)Multiply 24 and 3

(24 x 3 = 72)

5.) Now multiply 54 and 72

(54 x 72 = 3888)

The answer is 3888 feet or 118056 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual area of the playground is determined by converting the scale drawing dimensions to real-life measurements using the provided scale, resulting in a playground area of 972 square feet.

Justin has created a scale drawing of a playground using the scale 2 inches: 3 feet. To find the actual area of the playground, we first convert the dimensions of the drawing to real-life dimensions. The scale factor is found by dividing the scale's drawing unit by the real unit. This gives us a factor of 1 inch being equivalent to 1.5 feet since 2 inches represent 3 feet (2 inches / 3 feet = 1 inch / 1.5 feet).

The drawing dimensions are 18 inches by 24 inches. We multiply each dimension by our conversion factor (1.5 feet per inch) to get the real-life measurements:

Real length = 18 inches * 1.5 feet/inch = 27 feetReal width = 24 inches * 1.5 feet/inch = 36 feet

To find the actual area, we multiply the length by the width:

Area = length * width = 27 feet * 36 feet = 972 square feet

The actual area of the playground is 972 square feet.

This week laptops are 25% off. If a laptop costs $340, what is its sale price?

Answers

____________________________________________________

Answer:

Your answer would be $255

____________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve these kind of problems, what we have to do is find how much of 340 is 25%, and then subtract that number to the original price.

Let's give you some important information in the text:

25% off$340

With the information above, we can solve our problem.

First, we would need to find how much of 340 is 25%, and to do that, we would multiply 340 by 0.25:

[tex]340*0.25 = 85[/tex]

When you solve, you should get 85. But, you're not done yet, we need to find out how much the sales price is, not how much of it is discounted.

In order to find the sales price, we would get our original number (the number it originally cost), and subtract it with the amount of money it's removing (85).

In this case, we would subtract 340 by 85.

[tex]340-85=255[/tex]

Your FINAL answer should be 255

The sales price of the laptop would be $255.

The scores on an exam are normally distributed, with a mean of 75 and a standard deviation of 5. What percent of the scores are less than 80?

A. 50%
B. 84%
C. 13.5%
D. 16%

Answers

Answer:

B. 84%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean= π=75

Standard Deviation= σ=5

As we have to calculate the percentage of score less than 80, we will find the z-score of 80

z=(x-μ)/σ

=  (80-75)/5

=5/5

=1

The z-score table value for 1 is 0.8413.

For converting this value into percentage, the value will be multiplied by 100.

So,

Percentage of students whose score is less than 80 = 0.8413*100

=84.13%

Rounding off gives us : 84%

So option B is the correct answer..
