It has 2 roots or 2 solutions.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - x = 1/4

[tex]x^{2}-x -\frac{1}{4}=0\\\\a = 1 \\\\b = -1\\\\c = \frac{-1}{4}\\\\D = b^{2}-4ac\\\\ = (-1)^{2}-4*1*\frac{-1}{4}\\\\= 1 + 1\\= 2[/tex]

D = 2 > 0

So, this equation has real roots

x = 152°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ BDE = ∠ ABD = 76° ( alternate angles )

Since DE = BE then Δ BDE is isosceles with base angles congruent

∠ DBE = ∠ BDE = 76°

The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

x is an exterior angle of the triangle, then

x = 76° + 76° = 152°

A squirrel has a 75% chance of finding food when it is sunny, but only a 25% chance of finding food when it is raining. Suppose there is a 50% chance of rain. What is the probability that a squirrel will find food?

Answers

Answer:

The probability is 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If there is a 50% chance of rain, then there is also a 50% chance of not rain.

Now let's write all the probabilities:

(just take the percentage and divide it by 100%)

Probability of rain: p = (50%/100%) =  0.5

probabiity for the squirrel to find food when it rains: q = (25%/100%) = 0.25

Then the joint probability, this is, the probability that rains and that the squirrel finds food, is equal to the product of these two probabilities, this is:

P1 = 0.5*0.25 = 0.125

And we also have the case where there is no rain.

Probability that does not rain: p' = (50%/100%) = 0.5

Probability that the squirrel finds food if doesn't rain: q = (75%/100%) = 0.75

The joint probability is:

P2 = 0.5*0.75 = 0.375

The total probability that the squirrel will find food is equal to the sum of the probabilities of the squirrel finding food if there is rain, and the probability of the squirrel finding food if there isn't rain, so the total probability is:

P = P1 + P2 = 0.125 + 0.375 = 0.5

how do i solve for x with an equation that says 19 = x - 3

Answers

Answer: x = 22

Step-by-step explanation: Since x is unknown, we want to isolate it and determine what it equals. We know that x - 3 gives us 19, but we don't want to know what x - 3 is, just x. So we can add three to both sides of the equation, to get our answer and keep it balanced. As a result, we get x = 22

Answer:

x = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

19 = x - 3

Add 3 to each side

19 + 3 = x - 3 + 3

Simplify

22 = x

Which fraction equals the ratio of rise to run between the points (0, 0) and (6, 7)? A. B. C. D.

Answers

Answer:

7 / 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points:

points (0, 0) and (6, 7)

Point 1 : x1 = 0 ; y1 = 0

Point 2 : x2 = 6 ; y2 = 7

The rise = y2 - y1 = 7 - 0 = 7

The run = x2 - x1 = 6 - 0 = 6

Ratio of Rise to Run = Rise / Run = 7 / 6

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

In a parallelogram, the consecutive interior angles are supplementary angles.

In parallelogram PQRS,

[tex]m\angle Q+m\angle R=180^\circ[/tex]            (Supplementary angles)

[tex](20+2x)^\circ+(6x)^\circ=180^\circ[/tex]

[tex](20+8x)^\circ=180^\circ[/tex]

[tex]20+8x=180[/tex]

Subtracting 20 from both sides, we get

[tex]8x=180-20[/tex]

[tex]8x=160[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8.

[tex]\dfrac{8x}{8}=\dfrac{160}{8}[/tex]

[tex]x=20[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

48 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

a + w = 62

a+3 = 3(w+3) =>a+3=3w+9

=> a-3w = 6

a+ w = 62

a- 3w= 6

________-

4w = 56

w = 14

so, the Aini's age now is 62-14 = 48 years old

Tasha is planning an expansion of a square flower garden in a city park. If both the length and the width of the original garden are each increased by *3m*, the new total area of the garden will be *49* squared meters. Find the length of each side of the original garden.

Answers

Answer:

4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the flower garden is square :

Both length and width are equal :

Let :

Original side length = x

Increased length = x + 3

Area of square = s² (s = side length)

New area = 49 m²

That is ;

(x + 3)² = 49

Original length, x can be calculated thus ;

Take square root of both sides

x + 3 = √49

x + 3 = 7

x = 7 - 3

x = 4

Hence, original length of each side = 4 m

In this case we need to use sine equation.

sin θ = opposite side / hypotenuse

Answer:

[tex]y=-|x-1|+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the function ([tex]y=|x|[/tex]) can be described as a perfect (v) shape composed of two lines with the equation ([tex]y=x[/tex]) and ([tex]y=-x[/tex]) with a range of ([tex]y\geq 0[/tex]). In the depicted graph, this function has undergone some transfomrations. The general format for a transformation of an absolute value function is the following;

[tex]y=(+-)n|x-k|+h[/tex]

The function can be inverted if the sign of (n) is (-). As per the given graph, the function is inverted, thus the answer will have a (-) sign in front of it. One can see that the (n) value has to be (1) or rather not present since the function has no scaling factor.

[tex]y=-|x|[/tex]

The function has been shifted (k) units to the right, one can see that the given function's vertex is (1) unit to the right, thus the equation of the function has a (1) in the position of (k).

[tex]y=-|x-1|[/tex]

The function is shifted (3) units up, thus the position of (h) is occupied by a (3).

[tex]y=-|x-1|+3[/tex]

Therefore the following answer choice is correct, as it fits all of the requirements;

[tex]y=-|x-1|+3[/tex]

0 (-3,-5), because the point satisfies one of the equations
0 (-3,-5), because the point lies between the two axes
(-4,-8), because the point satisfies both equations
(-4, -8), because the point does not lie on any axis

Answers

Given:

The system of equations is:

Line A: [tex]y=x-4[/tex]

Line B: [tex]y=3x+4[/tex]

To find:

The solution of given system of equations.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]y=x-4[/tex]              ...(i)

[tex]y=3x+4[/tex]           ...(ii)

Equating (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]x-4=3x+4[/tex]

[tex]-4-4=3x-x[/tex]

[tex]-8=2x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]-4=x[/tex]

Substituting [tex]x=-4[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]y=-4-4[/tex]

[tex]y=-8[/tex]

The solution of system of equations is (-4,-8).

Now verify the solution by substituting [tex]x=-4, y=-8[/tex] in the given equations.

[tex]-8=-4-4[/tex]

[tex]-8=-8[/tex]

This statement is true.

Similarly,

[tex]-8=3(-4)+4[/tex]

[tex]-8=-12+4[/tex]

[tex]-8=-8[/tex]

This statement is also true.

Therefore, (-4,-8) is a solution of the given system of equations, because the point satisfies both equations. Hence, the correct option is C.
