Find the zeros of the function f(x) = -5x2 + 4x - 1 by completing the square.
(leave in fraction form if necessary)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The roots are;

x = (2 + i)/5 or (2-i)/5

where the term i is the complex number representing the square root of -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to use the completing the square method to solve the quadratic equation;

f(x) = -5x^2 + 4x -1

Set the function to zero

0 = -5x^2 + 4x - 1

So;

-5x^2 + 4x = 1

divide through by the coefficient of x which is -5

x^2 - 4/5x = -1/5

We now take half of the coefficient of x and square it

= -2/5^2 = 4/25

add it to both sides

x^2 - 4x/5 + 4/25= -1/5 + 4/25

(x- 2/5)^2 = -1/5 + 4/25

(x - 2/5)^2 = -1/25

Take the square root of both sides

x - 2/5 = √( -1/25

x - 2/5 = +i/5 or -i/5

x = 2/5 + i/5 or 2/5 - i/5

d)) The ratio of the monthly income and expenditure of Sunayana is 5 : 3. If she
increases her income by Rs 5,000 and decreases the expenditure by Rs 3,000, the
new ratio becomes 5:2. Find her income and expenditure.​

Answers

Answer:

Sunayana's income is ₹25000 and expenditures are ₹15000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let i denote the monthly income and e denote the expenditures.

We know that the ratio of the monthly income to expenditure is 5:3. So, we can write the following proportion:  

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{i}{e}=\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

Let's multiply both sides by e. This yields:

[tex]\displaystyle i=\frac{5}{3}e[/tex]

We know that when the income is increased by 5000 and the expenditures are decreased by 3000, the new ratio is 5:2. So, we can write the following proportion:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{i+5000}{e-3000}=\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Let's multiply both sides by [tex](e-3000)[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle i+5000=\frac{5}{2}(e-3000)[/tex]

Since we know that [tex]i=\frac{5}{3}e[/tex], substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{5}{3}e+5000=\frac{5}{2}(e-3000)[/tex]

So, let's solve for the expenditures. Distribute the right:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{5}{3}e+5000=\frac{5}{2}e-7500[/tex]

Subtract [tex]\frac{5}{2}e[/tex] from both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle -\frac{5}{6}e+5000=-7500[/tex]

Subtract 5000 from both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle -\frac{5}{6}e=-12500[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -6/5. So, the expenditures are:

[tex]e=\text{Rs }15000[/tex]

We can use the original ratio to find Sunayana's income:

[tex]\displaystyle i=\frac{5}{3}e[/tex]

Substitute 15000 for e. Evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle i=\frac{5}{3}(15000)=\text{Rs }25000[/tex]

So, Sunayana's income is ₹25000 and expenditures are ₹15000.

And we're done!

Answer: Income = 25000, Expenditures = 15000

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio of 5:3 can also be written in fraction form as [tex]\dfrac{5}{3}[/tex] (which is in simplified format from [tex]\dfrac{5x}{3x}[/tex]).

Adding 5000 to 5x results in 5x + 5000

Subtracting 3000 from 3x results in 3x - 3000

--> [tex]\dfrac{5x+5000}{3x-3000}[/tex]

The new ratio of 5:2 can be written in simplified fraction form of [tex]\dfrac{5}{2}[/tex].

Set the fractions equal to each. Then cross multiply and solve for x.

   [tex]\dfrac{5x+5000}{3x-3000}=\dfrac{5}{2}[/tex]

5(3x - 3000) = 2(5x + 5000)             Cross multiplied

15x - 15000 = 10x + 10000                Distributed

5x - 15000 =            10000                Subtracted 0x from both sides

5x               =            25000               Added 15000 to both sides

               x = 5000                            Divided 5 from both sides

The original ratio of 5 : 3     -->  5x:3x

where 5x is the income and 3x is the expenditures results in:

income = 5x                            expenditures = 3x

             = 5(5000)                                         = 3(5000)

             = 25000                                          = 15000

You and your friend each purchase an equal number n of magazines. Your magazines cost $1.50 each and your friend's magazines cost $2 each. The total cost for you and your friend is $10.50. Write and solve an equation to find the number of magazines you purchased.

Answers

Given:

You and your friend each purchase an equal number n of magazines.

Your magazines cost = $1.50 each

Your friend's magazines cost = $2 each

Total cost = $10.50

To find:

The equation to find number of magazines you purchased.

Solution:

Your magazines cost = $1.50 each

Your friend's magazines cost = $2 each

Number of magazines purchased by you and your friend = n

Total cost = [tex]1.50n+2n[/tex]

It is given that total cost is $10.50.

[tex]1.50n+2n=10.50[/tex]

[tex]3.50n=10.50[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3.50.

[tex]n=\dfrac{10.50}{3.50}[/tex]

[tex]n=3[/tex]

Therefore, required equation is [tex]1.50n+2n=10.50[/tex] and the number of magazines purchased by you is 3.

Answers

Answer:

The slope of the line passing through both points is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we can calculate the slope as follows;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

where (x1,y1) = (-6,-7)

(x2,y2) = (-24,-7)

Thus m = (-7 -(-7))/(-24 + 6) = 0/18 = 0

Answer:

n = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Where's a or did you mean n?

Answer:

n=4

Step-by-step explanation:

5n+34=-2(1-7n)

1. So first expand.

5n+34=−2+14n

2 Regroup terms.

5n+34=14n−2

3 Subtract 5n from both sides.

34=14n−2−5n

4 Simplify  14n-2-5n to  9n-2.

34=9n−2

5 Add 22 to both sides.

34+2=9n

6 Simplify  34+2 to 36.

36=9n

7 Divide both sides by 9.

36/9=9

8 Simplify 36/9 to 4

4=n

A store sells a 33-pound bag of oranges for \$ 3.60$3.60 and a 55-pound bag of oranges for \$ 5.25$5.25. What is the difference between the price per pound for the 33-pound bag of oranges and the price per pound for the 55-pound bag of oranges? ​

Answers

Answer:

0.01364

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

A store sells a 33-pound bag of oranges for $3.60 and a 55-pound bag of oranges for $5.25.

Price per pound of 33 pound bag is 3.60/33 = 0.10909 price per pound

Price per pound of 55 pound bag of oranges is 5.25/55 = 0.09545 price per pound

Difference between price per pound for the 33-pound bag of oranges and the price per pound for the 55-pound bag of oranges is :

D = 0.10909 - 0.09545

D = 0.01364

Therefore, this is the required solution.
