if the equation x^2 +(k+2)x+2k=0 has equal roots,then the value of k is .....a.2 b.-2 c 1/2 d.none ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

k=2

Problem:

if the equation x^2 +(k+2)x+2k=0 has equal roots,then the value of k is ..

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the coefficient of x^2 is 1, we can use this identity to aid us: x^2+bx+(b/2)^2=(x+b/2)^2.

So we want the following:

[(k+2)/2]^2=2k

Apply the power on the left:

(k+2)^2/4=2k

Multiply both sides by 4:

(k+2)^2=8k

Expand left side:

k^2+4k+4=8k *I used identity (x+c)^2=x^2+2xc+c^2

Subtract 8k on both sides:

k^2-4k+4=0

Factor using the identity mentioned a couple lines above:

(k-2)^2=0

Since zero squared is zero, we want k-2=0.

Adding both sides by 2 gives k=2.

A company that manufactures hair ribbons knows that the number of ribbons it can sell each week, x, is related to the price p per ribbon by the equation below.
x = 1,000 − 100p
At what price should the company sell the ribbons if it wants the weekly revenue to be $1,600? (Remember: The equation for revenue is R = xp.)
p = $ (smaller value)
p = $ (larger value)

Answers

Given:

The number of ribbons it can sell each week, x, is related to the price p per ribbon by the equation:

[tex]x=1000-100p[/tex]

To find:

The selling price if the company wants the weekly revenue to be $1,600.

Solution:

We know that the revenue is the product of quantity and price.

[tex]R=xp[/tex]

[tex]R=(1000-100p)p[/tex]

[tex]R=1000p-100p^2[/tex]

We need to find the value of p when the value of R is $1600.

[tex]1600=1000p-100p^2[/tex]

[tex]1600-1000p+100p^2=0[/tex]

[tex]100(16-10p+p^2)=0[/tex]

Divide both sides by 100.

[tex]p^2-10p+16=0[/tex]

Splitting the middle term, we get

[tex]p^2-8p-2p+16=0[/tex]

[tex]p(p-8)-2(p-8)=0[/tex]

[tex](p-8)(p-2)=0[/tex]

Using zero product property, we get

[tex]p-8=0[/tex] or [tex]p-2=0[/tex]

[tex]p=8[/tex] or [tex]p=2[/tex]

Therefore, the smaller value of p is $2 and the larger value of p is $8.

Answers

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter of the square and the triangle are the same

4×(x + 10) = 3×4x

4x + 40 = 12x

40 = 8x

x = 5

The path of a projectile launched from a 20-ft-tall tower is modeled by the equation y = -5x2 + 40x + 20. What is the maximum height, in meters
reached by the projectile?

Answers

Answer:

30.49 m

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the maximum height, we solve for the value x when dy/dx = 0.

Since, y = -5x² + 40x + 20

dy/dx = d[-5x² + 40x + 20]/dx

dy/dx = -10x + 40

Since dy/dx = 0,

-10x + 40 = 0

-10x = -40

x = -40/-10

x = 4

Substituting x = 4 into the equation for y, we have

y = -5x² + 40x + 20

y = -5(4)² + 40(4) + 20

y = -5(16) + 160 + 20

y = -80 + 160 + 20

y = 80 + 20

y = 100 ft

Since y is in feet, we convert to meters.

Since 1 m = 3.28 ft, 100 ft = 100 ft × 1 m/3.28 ft = 30.49 m

So, the maximum height, in meters  reached by the projectile is 30.49 m

Explanation:

Suppose that the scores on a statewide standardized test are normally distributed with a mean of 64 and a standard deviation of 2. Estimate the percentage of scores that were (a) between 60 and 68.

Answers

Answer:

95. 45%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Mean score, = 64

Standard deviation = 2

Score between 60 and 68

P(Z < (x - mean) / standard deviation)

P(Z < (60 - 64) / 2) = P(Z < - 2) = 0.02275 (Z probability calculator)

P(Z < (68 - 64) / 2) = P(Z < 2) = 0.97725 (Z probability calculator)

P( score between 60 and 68)

P(Z < 2) - P(Z < - 2)

0.97725 - 0.02275 = 0.9545

Score between 60 and 68 = 0.9545 = 0.9545 * 100% = 95.45%

Which number completes the system of linear
inequalities represented by the graph?
y> 2x – 2 and x + 4y > _____

Answers

The system of linear inequalties that is represented by the graph is formed by the expressions y > 2 · x - 2 and x + 4 · y > - 12.

What system of inequalities generate the graph seen in the image?

Herein we have two inequalities generated by two linear functions whose form is described below:

f(x, y) > a (blue region)      (1)

g(x, y) > b (red region)      (2)

By direct comparison, we find that the limit of the red region is represented by the inequality y > 2 · x - 2. From the equation of the line we can derive an expression for the limit of the blue region:

Slope

m = [- 4 - (- 3)]/(4 - 0)

m = - 1/4

Intercept

b = y - m · x

b = - 3 - (- 1/4) · 0

b = - 3

Then, the inequation is represented by the linear equation:

y > - (1/4) · x - 3

4 · y > - x - 12

x + 4 · y > - 12

The system of linear inequalties that is represented by the graph is formed by the expressions y > 2 · x - 2 and x + 4 · y > - 12.
