Suppose a quadratic equation has the form x^2 + x + c = 0. Show that the constant c must be less than 1/4 in order for the equation to have two real solutions.

Answer:

The sum of 1/6 and 1/7 would be 13/42, or, if you wanted the answer in decimal form rounded to the nearest hundredth, it would be about 0.31.

To find the sum of 1/6 and 1/7, we cannot simply add the numerators together and maintain the same denominator. This is because 1/6 and 1/7 have different denominators, so we don't know which denominator to maintain!

To fix this we need to find a number that is divisible by both 6 and 7. One easy way to do this is to multiply the two numbers together:

6 x 7 = 42

If we were to change the denominator to 42 for each fraction, we could add the numerators together and maintain a denominator of 42. However, this means we must change the numerator of each fraction along with its denominator.

Let's start with 1/6. We can multiply 6 by 7 to obtain 42, but this means we also have to multiply 1 by 7 to keep the fraction proportionate. If the fraction does not maintain the same proportion, it will be a completely different fraction!

We know that 1 x 7 = 7, so it is safe to say that 1/6 is equal to 7/42.

We can apply the same logic to 1/7. Since 7 x 6 is 42 we need to multiply 1 by 6 along with 7. Note: you cannot multiply each number by 7 this time, because 7 x 7 would be 49, not 42. In multiplying the numerator and denominator by 6 we know that 1/7 = 6/42.

Now we have an equation of:

6/42 + 7/42

Now we can add it as we would normally by adding the numerators and keeping the denominator to get:

6/42 + 7/42 = 13/42

If you needed the answer in decimal form it would be about 0.3095238095, or 0.31 rounded to the nearest hundredth.

I hope this helped.

Answer:

The situation that represents this situation is:

[tex]t = \frac{60}{n}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of time t needed to assemble the set is inversely  proportional to the number people n working.

This means that:

[tex]t = \frac{k}{n}[/tex]

In which k is the constant of proportionality.

Twelve people can assemble the set in 5 hours.

This means that for [tex]n = 12, t = 5[/tex]. We use this to find k.

[tex]t = \frac{k}{n}[/tex]

[tex]5 = \frac{k}{12}[/tex]

[tex]k = 12*5 = 60[/tex]

Write an equation to represent the situation.

[tex]t = \frac{60}{n}[/tex]

Answer:

n = 8√2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Angle θ = 60°

Opposite = 4√6

Hypothenus = n =?

The value of n can be obtained by using the sine ratio as illustrated below:

Sine θ = Opposite / Hypothenus

Sine 60 = 4√6 / n

√3/2 = 4√6 / n

Cross multiply

n × √3 = 2 × 4√6

n × √3 = 8√6

Divide both side by √3

n = 8√6 / √3

Rationalise

n = 8√6 / √3 × (√3/√3)

n = 8√(6×3) / 3

n = 8√18 / 3

Recall

√18 = √(9×2) = √9 × √2 = 3√2

Thus,

n = 8√18 / 3

n = 8 × 3√2 / 3

n = 8√2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Each child will get 9 pieces with 13 pieces left.

'Division is a method of distributing a group of things into equal parts.'

According to the given problem,

Number of beads Kesley has = 157

Number of children to be shared between = 16

Number of beads in possession of each child = 157 ÷ 16

                                                                             = 9

Number of beads divided equally = 144

Remaining beans = 157 - 144

                              = 13

Hence, we can conclude that out of 157 beans, 144 is divided equally among 16 children with each child getting 9 pieces.

Given

[tex]n = 17[/tex] -- number of properties

[tex]p = 60\%[/tex] --- probability of selling a property

Required

[tex]P(x \le 5)[/tex]

The question is an illustration of binomial probability, and it is calculated using:

C)

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} k - 3&= \ln \frac{1}{2} - 3 \\ &\approx-3.6931 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

[tex]\displaystyle h(x) = 20e^{kx} \text{ where } k \in \mathbb{R}[/tex]

A)

Given that h(1) = 20, we want to find k.

h(1) = 20 means that h(x) = 20 when x = 1. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle (20) = 20e^{k(1)}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]1= e^k[/tex]

Anything raised to zero (except for zero) is one. Therefore:

[tex]k=0[/tex]

B)

Given that h(1) = 40, we want to find 2k + 1.

Likewise, this means that h(x) = 40 when x = 1. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle (40) = 20e^{k(1)}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle 2 = e^{k}[/tex]

We can take the natural log of both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle \ln 2 = \underbrace{k\ln e}_{\ln a^b = b\ln a}[/tex]

By definition, ln(e) = 1. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle k = \ln 2[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]2k+1 = 2\ln 2+ 1 \approx 2.3863[/tex]

C)

Given that h(1) = 10, we want to find k - 3.

Again, this meas that h(x) = 10 when x = 1. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle (10) = 20e^{k(1)}[/tex]

Simplfy:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{2} = e^k[/tex]

Take the natural log of both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle \ln \frac{1}{2} = k\ln e[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle k = \ln \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle k - 3 = \ln\frac{1}{2} - 3\approx-3.6931[/tex]

GROUP B :

n2 = 25

x2 = 10.8

s2= 2.0

(x1 - x2) ± tα/2[√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)]

The degree of freedom :

df = (s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)² ÷ (s1²/n1)²/n1-1 + (s2²/n2)²/n2-1

The degree of freedom :

(2.2²/25 + 2²/25)² ÷ (2.2²/25)²/24 + (2²/25)²/24

df = 0.12503296 ÷ (0.0015617 + 0.0010666)

df = 47.57 ;

df = 48

Tcritical value ; α = 95% ; df = 48

Tcritical = 2.0106

C.I = (12.7 - 10.8) ± 2.0106[√(2.2²/25 + 2²/25)]

C.I = 1.9 ± (2.0106 * 0.5946427)

C. I = (0.7044 ; 3.0956)

Step-by-step explanation:

AAS means angle angle side. so, we need 2 angles and 1 side.

The value of vector v that is perpendicular to the plane through the points is,

⇒ v = (6, - 27, - 24)

To multiply means to add a number to itself a particular number of times. Multiplication can be viewed as a process of repeated addition.

Given that;

Points are,

A = (5,−4,4), B = (−5,0,−3), and C = (−4,2,−5).

Hence, We get;

AB = [- 10, 4, - 7]

AC = [-9, 6, -9]

So, The value of vector v that is perpendicular to the plane through the points is,

⇒ v = AB x AC

⇒ v = (- 10, 4, - 7) x (- 9, 6, - 9)

⇒ v = (6, - 27, - 24)

Thus, The value of vector v that is perpendicular to the plane through the points is,

⇒ v = (6, - 27, - 24)

Answer:

  5.423 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance to run. Then the remaining distance to the point that is closest to the island is (6-x) miles. The straight-line distance (d) to the point x from the island is given by the Pythagorean theorem:

  d² = 1² +(6 -x)² = x² -12x +37

  d = √(x² -12x +37)

The total travel time is the sum of times running and swimming. Each time is found from ...

  time = distance/speed

  total time = x/4 + d/2 = x/4 +(1/2)√(x² -12x +37)

__

The total time will be minimized when its derivative with respect to x is zero.

  t' = 1/4 +(1/4)(2x -12)/√(x² -12x +37) = 0

Multiplying by 4 and combining fractions, we can see the numerator will be ...

  √(x² -12x +37) +2x -12 = 0

Subtracting the radical term and squaring both sides, we get ...

  4x² -48x +144 = x² -12x +37

  3x² -36x +107 = 0

The quadratic formula tells us the smaller of the two roots is ...

  x = (36 -√(36² -4(3)(107)))/(2(3)) = (36 -√12)/6 ≈ 5.423 . . . mi

You should run 5.423 miles west to minimize the time needed to reach the island.
