For what real numbers x is x 2 − 10 x + 25 negative?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

no real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 − 10 x + 25

Factor

What 2 numbers multiply to 25 and add to -10

-5*-5 = 25

-5+-5 = -10

( x-5) (x-5)

This touches the graph at x =5

The parabola is positive so there are no values where the graph is negative

Answer 2

Answer:

No real solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1: Factoring the quadratic

The equation is in quadratic form - ax² + bx + c = 0.

Therefore, we can use a factoring technique to solve for x. I will use the quadratic formula - [tex]x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}[/tex].

[tex]x=\frac{-(-10)\pm \sqrt{(-10)^{2}-4(1)(25)} }{2(1)}\\\\x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{100-4(25)} }{2}\\\\x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{100-100}}{2}\\\\x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{0}}{2}\\\\x=\frac{10\pm0}{2}\\\\x=\frac{10}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=5}[/tex]

Part 2: Using discriminant to determine roots

Because the discriminant (square root portion of formula) was equivalent to zero, this is the only solution that proves the equation correctly. Therefore, there is no possible negative value that can be substituted for x  without altering the final value that the equation is equal to.

Answer:

f(x) = 8(1/2)^x.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the graph, there is a point at (0, 8) and (1, 4).

That means that when x = 0, y = 8.

8 = a(b)^0

1a = 8

a = 8

That means that a = 8, and when x = 1, y = 4.

4 = 8(b)^1

4 = 8b

8b = 4

b = 4/8

b = 1/2

So, f(x) = 8(1/2)^x.

If Eric can paint $3$ cars in $4$ hours and $2$ trucks in $5$ hours, then how long, in hours, would it take him to paint $4$ cars and a truck? Express your answer as a common fraction.

Answers

Answer:

47/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Time taken to paint 3 cars = 4 hours

Time taken to paint 2 trucks = 5 hours

How long will it take him to paint 4 cars and a truck

If 3 cars = 4 hours ;

Then ;

1 car = (4/3)hours

If 2 trucks = 5 hours

Then;

1 truck = (5/2) hours = 2 1/2 hours

Time required To paint 4 cars :

4 × (4/3) = 16/3 hours

Time required to paint 1 truck :5/2 hours

Total time required :

(16/3 + 5/2) = (32 + 15) / 6 = 47/6

Sandy had test scores of 20, 25, 17, 22, and 21. What is the average (mean) score. On the next 3 test Sandy's score were 24, 24, and 23. What is her mean now?

Answers

Answer:

a) First Average mean = 21

b) Current mean = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula For mean =

Sum of Terms/ Number of terms

a)Sandy had test scores of 20, 25, 17, 22, and 21.

Number of terms = 5

Mean = (20 + 25 + 17 + 22 + 21)/5

= 105/5

= 21

b) On the next 3 test Sandy's score were 24, 24, and 23

To calculate this current mean, we will add the first 5 test scores, with this current 3 test scores and then find the average.

Mean = (20+ 25+ 17 +22 +21 + 24 + 24 + 23)/8

Mean = 176/8

Mean = 22

Maria is installing gutters on her rectangular shed that measures 10 ft by 9 ft she has 23 ft of gutter already and need to purchase more to complete of gutter all the way around the shed the store sells gutters in length of 5 feet how many lenths of gutter does she need to buy to finish the shed

Answers

Answer:

Maria needs 3 lengths of gutter of finish the shed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to calculate the perimeter of the rectangular shed to know how much  5 feet gutter is needed.

The perimeter of the shed is p = 2(l + b) where l = 10ft and b = 9 ft

p = 2(10 + 9) = 2(19) = 38 ft

Now, the perimeter of the shed also equal 23 ft of gutter already installed plus 5x ft gutter where x = number of gutters.

So 23 + 5x = 38

collecting like terms, we have

5x = 38 - 23

5x = 15

dividing through by 5 we have

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 15/5

x = 3

So, Maria needs 3 lengths of gutter of finish the shed.

Answers

Answer:

a . x = 512

b. x^1/2•y•z^5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Here in this question, we want to find the value of x, given the equation.

x^2/3 = 64

Now, to find the value of x, we shall raising both powers to the reciprocal of 2/3

When we talk of reciprocal, we mean a number such that when we multiply this number by that particular number, our result is 1.

So for 2/3, the reciprocal is 3/2

So let’s raise the power of both sides to 3/2

Thus;

x^2/3(3/2) = 64^3/2

Kindly recall that 2/3(3/2) = 2/3 * 3/2 = 1

Thus ;

x = 64^3/2

So what this mean is that we will find the square root of 64 and cube our answer.

Thus;

x = {√(64)}^3

x = 8^3

x = 512

b. According to laws of indices, kindly note that

b√(a) = a^1/b

Thus;

4 √(x^2•y^4•z^5) = (x^2•y^4•z^5)^1/4

So what we do is to multiply each of the powers in the bracket by 1/4

Thus, we have the following;

x^2(1/4) • y^4(1/4) • z^5(1/4)

= x^1/2•y•z^5/4

where • simply refers to multiplication between the terms

Dylan and 6 of his friends ate lunch together. The restaurant charges 18% for gratuity for groups of 6 or more people, and tax is 6%. Their total bill, without tax and gratuity was $98. Part 1 Which expression will find the additional charge, in dollars, Dylan and his friends will need to pay? A. 98 + (0.18 + 0.6) B. 98(0.6 + 0.18) C. 98(0.06 + 0.18) D. 98(0.18) + 0.06

Answers

Answer: C: $98*(0.06 + 0.18)

Step-by-step explanation:

Always when we have a percentage X% of charge of an amount of money, suppose $100.

The actual cost will be:

(x)*$100 = C.

Where x is the decimal representation of X%:

x = (X%/100%)

In this case, we have two additional charges:

One of 18% and another of 6%.

First we can write them in decimal form:

18%/100% = 0.18

6%/100% = 0.06.

If the price without tax is $98, then the price with the charges will be:

P = (0.18 + 0.06)*$98

The correct option is C.

The answer is C hope this helps!

Answers

Answer:

(0,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

So C

The correct option is option C: [0,2] contains the local maximum.

What is the local maximum?

Local maximum is the relative maximum point where it is maximum within the neighborhood of that point.

From the graph shown in the picture, it is clear that,

the curved line touches the x axis at the point R(-2.5, 0), O(0, 0), and Q(3, 0).

similarly, the curved line touches the y-axis at O(0,0).

the graph has local minima at P(-0.8,-2.8) and Q(3, 0).

So the graph is below the x-axis between the point (-2.5, 0), (0, 0).

the graph has local maxima at S(1.55,10.8).

So the graph is above the x-axis between the point (0, 0), and (3, 0).

so the local maximum occurs at S(1.55,10.8).

From the option, it is clear that the point  (1.55,10.8) lies in the interval [0,2].

Therefore [0,2] contains the local maximum.

The square pyramid shown below has a base with sides of 121212 units. The vertical height of the pyramid is 151515 units. What is the length of sss (the height of one of the triangular faces)? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

16units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the length of the base of a square based pyramid as 12 units and the vertical height of the pyramid to be 15units, the height of one of its triangular faces can be gotten by using the pythagoras theorem.

Let the height of one of the triangular sides be s (it is also the slant height of the pyramid)

The vertical height of the pyramid to be h = 15units

The base of the right angled trangle will be half of the length of the base = 12/2 r  = 6 units

According to the pythagoras theorem; s² = h² + r²

Substituting the given values into the formula we will have;

s² = 15² + 6²

s² = 225 + 36

s = 261

s = 16.16 units

s ≈ 16units (to the nearest tenth)

Hence the length of the height of one of the triangular faces is 16units

given that the ratio of the floor plan with that of the actual measurement =

so we have to find the length of the house on the floor plan if the actual measurement is 8 feet.

using eq (1), we can say that the length on the floor plan will be half of the actual length.

therefore if the actual length of the house is 8 feet, then

                           length of the house on the floor plan = 8/2

Step-by-step explanation:

9(p-4) = -18

Expand brackets.

9p -36 = -18

Add 36 on both sides.

9p -36 + 36 = -18 + 36

9p = 18

Divide both sides by 9.

(9p)/9 = 18/9

p = 2

Answer:

p = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

9(p - 4) = -18

PEMDAS is the order of operation, and =

~

First, divide 9 from both sides:

(9(p - 4))/9 = (-18)/9

(p - 4) = -18/9

p - 4 = -2

Isolate the variable, p. Add 4 to both sides:

p - 4 (+4) = -2 (+4)

p = -2 + 4

p = 4 - 2

p = 2

Check. Plug in 2 for p in the equation:

9(p - 4) = -18

9(2 - 4) = -18

9(-2) = - 18
