What are the solutions of the equation x4 – 5x2 – 14 = 0? Use factoring to solve.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x=\pm 7\text{ or } x=\pm i\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation:

[tex]x^4-5x^2-14=0[/tex]

Since this is in quadratic form, we can consider using u-substitution. Thus, we will let:

[tex]u=x^2[/tex]

Then by substitution:

[tex]u^2-5x-14=0[/tex]

Now we can solve normally. Factor:

[tex](u-7)(u+2)=0[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

[tex]u=7\text{ or } u=-2[/tex]

Back-substitute:

[tex]x^2=7\text{ and } x^2=-2[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides. Since we are taking an even-root, we will need to add plus-minus:

[tex]x=\pm 7\text{ and }x=\sqrt{-2}[/tex]

Therefore, our solutions are:

[tex]x=\pm7\text{ and } x=\pm i\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Four letters are selected at random with replacement from the word MATHCOUNTS. What is the probability that the letters in the order they are selected will form the word MATH?

Answers

So "MATHCOUNTS" has 10 letters.

And "MATH" has 4 letters.

So the probability of you getting the letters "M" "A" "T" "H" is 4/10 or 2/5.

But it has to be in order...

There are 32 ways you can arrange the 4 letters. There is only 1 way you can write "MATH"

So 1/32 probability of 2/5 is 2/160 or 1/80

The probability of getting the word MATH is 1/80

What is Probability ?

The study of likeliness of an event to happen is probability .

It is given that

Total letters in MATHCOUNTS : 10 letters.

Total chances of getting letter M , A , T , H  is  4

Probability of getting the letters M , A , T , H is 4/10

= 2 /5

The probability of getting the word MATH is 1

And the total number of ways the letters can be arranged is 2⁴

= 32

The probability of getting the word MATH is

Find the perimeter and area of the shaded region.

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter of the shaded region= 22/7cm

Area = 36.48 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all for the perimeter.

The radius of the arc is 8cm

At an angle of 90°

Perimeter of of the shape is perimeter of the the 2 arc

The both arc are equal so let's determine the perimeter of one first.

Perimeter of the arc= 2πr*(90/360)

Perimeter of the arc= 2*22/7*1/4

Perimeter of the arc= 11/7 cm

Perimeter of the shades region= 2*11/7

Perimeter of the shaded region= 22/7cm

Area of the sector = πr²*(90/360)

Area of the sector= 50.24cm²

Area of non sector= 64-50.24

= 13.76

But non sector is two

Area of non sector= 2*13.76

= 27.52

Area of the shaded region = area of the square -(area of non sector)

= 64-27.52

= 36.48 cm²

The area is 36.48 . Perimeter 22.7 .

The volume of a sphere is [tex]\frac{1}{162} \pi[/tex] cubic meters. What is the length of the sphere’s radius? In your final answer, include all of your calculations.

Answers

Answer:

The radius is 1/6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is given by

V = 4/3 pi r^3

1/162 * pi = 4/3 pi r^3

Divide each side by pi

1/162  = 4/3 r^3

Multiply each side by 3/4

3/4 *1/162  =3/4* 4/3 r^3

1/216 = r^3

Take the cube root of each side

(1/216)^ 1/3 = (r^3)^1/3

1/6 = r

The radius is 1/6 m

The radius is 1/6 m!!!!!!!!!

Teresita worked part-time for 2 weeks in a pharmacy. During the second week, she worked 13 times the
number of hours that she worked during the first week. If she worked a total of 25 hours during the 2-week
period, how many hours did Teresita work during the second week?
1.8
2.10
3.12
4.15​

Answers

The answer is 3 because this thing wants me to write a long response

Option 4 is correct, Teresita worked 15 hours during the second week.

Given that Teresita worked [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  times the number of hours during the second week.

Therefore, she worked 1.5x hours during the second week.

The total number of hours she worked during the two weeks is given as 25.

So we can set up the equation:

x + 1.5x = 25

Combining like terms, we have:

2.5x = 25

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2.5, we get:

x = 25/2.5

x = 10

Therefore, Teresita worked 10 hours during the first week.

To find the number of hours she worked during the second week, we can substitute this value back into the equation:

1.5x = 1.5 × 10

= 15

Therefore, Teresita worked 15 hours during the second week.

The domain of a function f(x) is the set of all values for which the function is defined, and the range of the function is the set of all values that f takes.

According to the question -

We can see that the function is defined for all values of x (assuming that the graph will continue after the arrows at the top). Hence, the domain of f(x) will be set of all real numbers.

Now, the graph curves back after reaching a minimum value of  -4. Therefore, the set of all possible values f(x) takes belongs to the set

At the same time, Sam and Fred who are 168 miles apart begin moving toward each other. Find the number of hours before they meet if Sam runs 12 mph and Fred runs 9 mph.

Answers

Answer: 8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the time before they meet ( in hours)

Speed of Sam = 12 mph

Sped of Fred = 9 mph

Distance = Speed × time

Distance covered by Sam in x hours = 12x

Distance covered by Fred in x hours = 9x

                                               (Distance)     (rate1) (time1)          (rate2) (time2)  

Total distance between them: 168             =     12      x        +      9    x

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 168= 21x\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{168}{21}=8[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

length = 89 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = l × w

where

l is the length

w is the width

From the question

Area = 6052 m²

width = 68 m

To find the length substitute the values into the above formula

6052 = 68l

Divide both sides by 68

We have the final answer as

length = 89 m

Find an equation of the line passing through the pair of points. Write the equation in the form Ax+By = C.
(-4,7), (-5,-2)
Choose the equation of the line in the form Ax + By = C.

Answers

Answer:

-9x + y = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

We can put the equation into y = mx + b form first, then change it to Ax + By = C

First, we can find the slope by doing rise/run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(-2 - 7) / (-5 + 4)

-9/-1 = 9

We can put this into the equation y = mx + b, along with another point, to find b:

y = mx + b

7 = 9(-4) + b

7 = -36 + b

43 = b

Now, we know the equation will be y = 9x + 43, and we can rearrange this:

Subtract 9x from both sides:

-9x + y = 43 will be the equation of the line

The answer to the question is -9 + y = 43

Answers

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the 2 lines are parallel we can use same side interior theorem to find  x

This would mean the equation is 6x + 30 + 2x + 6 = 180

When you solve that this would be 18

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Utilise the fact that interior angles add up to 180

6x + 30 + 2x + 6 = 180

→ Simplify

8x + 36 = 180

→ Minus 36 from both sides to isolate 8x

8x = 144

→ Divide both sides by 8 to isolate x

x = 18

Answer: (A) 15 degrees

====================================================

Explanation:

With any parallelogram, the adjacent angles always add to 180 degrees.

(angle ADC) + (angle DCB) = 180

(angle ADC) + 120 = 180

angle ADC = 180 - 120

angle ADC = 60 degrees

--------

Angles 1 and 2 combine to form angle ADC by the angle addition postulate. This is just the idea of gluing smaller angles to form larger ones.

(angle 1) + (angle 2) = angle ADC

45 + (angle 2) = 60

angle 2 = 60-45

angle 2 = 15 degrees

The answer is 15 degrees
