The square to solve the quadratic equation x^2-15x+2=0

Answers

Answer 1

The roots of the equation [tex]x^{2}[/tex]-15x +2 =0 are 14.865 and 0.135

What is completing the square method?

Completing the square method is one of the methods to find the roots of the given quadratic equation.

Given equation is:

[tex]x^{2}[/tex]-15x +2 =0

Using Completing the Square method we have

[tex]x^{2}[/tex]-15x +2 + [tex](\frac{15}{2})^{2}[/tex] - [tex](\frac{15}{2})^{2}[/tex] =0

Now,

[tex]x^{2}[/tex]-15x + [tex](\frac{15}{2})^{2}[/tex] - [tex](\frac{15}{2})^{2}[/tex] +2=0

or, [tex][x-(\frac{15}{2})]^{2}[/tex] - 225/4 +2 =0

 

or,  [tex][x-(\frac{15}{2})]^{2}[/tex] -217*4 =0

or,  [tex][x-(\frac{15}{2})]^{2}[/tex] = 217/4

or,  [tex]x[/tex] = [tex]\pm \frac{14.73}{2} + \frac{15}{2}[/tex]

or, [tex]x_1[/tex]= 14.865, [tex]x_2[/tex]= 0.135

Thus, the roots of the quadratic equation are: 14.865 and 0.135

Answers

A pyramid is a polyhedron built by connecting a polygonal base and a point known as the top. The ratio of the height of pyramid A to pyramid B is 0.064.

What is a pyramid?

A pyramid is a polyhedron built by connecting a polygonal base and a point known as the top. A lateral face is formed by the base edge and top of each triangle.

The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula,

Volume of the pyramid = (Length×Width×Height)/3

                                       = (Area of base ×Height)/3

If the area of the base of the two pyramids is the same, then the ratio of the volume of the two pyramids will be,

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Volume of Pyramid A}}{\text{Volume of Pyramid B}} = \dfrac{60\rm\ mm^3}{937.5\rm\ mm^3}\\\\\\\dfrac{3 \times \text{(Area of base})_a \times h_a}{3 \times \text{(Area of base})_b \times h_b}= \dfrac{60}{937.5}\\\\\\\dfrac{h_a}{h_b} = 0.064[/tex]

Hence, the ratio of the height of pyramid A to pyramid B is 0.064.

Formula for surface area of a cylinder is 2πrh + 2r²π

2πrh: this is the formula to find the area of the cylinder itself (circumference of the base times the height of the cylinder)

2r²π: this is the formula to find the area of the 2 circles at the end of the cylinder (area of a circle times 2)

We can substitute h with 7 and r with 3 to solve:

A cube-shaped aquarium has edges that are 1.75 ft long. the aquarium is filled with water that has a density of 72" lb/f" "t" ^3.

(a) should the aquarium be placed on a table that can support a maximum weight of 150 lb? explain why or why not.
(b) would the density of the water change if the aquarium was only half full? explain.

Answers

Answer:

No and the density changes along with the weight.

Answer:

  (a) No. The weight is more than 150 lb.

  (b) No. Density is not a function of volume.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the aquarium is the product of the volume and the density of the contents.

(a)

The volume of the aquarium is the product of its dimensions:

  V = LWH = (1.75 ft)(1.75 ft)(1.75 ft) = 1.75³ ft³ = 5.359375 ft³

The weight of its contents, at 72 lb/ft³ will be ...

  (72 lb/ft³)(5.359375 ft³) = 385.875 lb

The aquarium should not be placed on the table. The weight of the aquarium is too great for the load limit of the table.

__

(b)

The density of water is the ratio of its mass to its volume. Density does not change with depth or volume. It is essentially constant. (Water is considered to be virtually incompressible. Its density changes slightly with temperature,)

No, the density of the water would not change.

_____

Additional comments

The half-full aquarium would weigh about 385.875/2 lb ≈ 194 lb. This is still too heavy for the table.

The density of water is actually about 62.4 lb/ft³. We assume the extra 10 lb/ft³ might take into account the weight of the aquarium and any gravel or other non-water content.

if you subtract 13 from my number and multiply the difference by -4, the result is -40, what is the number?

Answers

Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number = X

subtracting 13 from X = X -13

multiplying the difference by -4= (X -13)×-4

the result is -40 means (X-13)×-4=-40

(X- 13)×-4 = -40

-4 X +52 = -40

collect like term

-4 X = -40-52

I'm really struggling with finding the greatest common factor.

could someone please explain in simple terms?

Answers

Answer:

The GCF is 4

The polynomial factors to [tex]4(3x^2+x+5)[/tex]

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

Further explanation:

Ignore the x terms

We're looking for the GCF of 12, 4 and 20

Factor each to their prime factorization. It might help to do a factor tree, but this is optional.

12 = 2*2*34 = 2*220 = 2*2*5

Each factorization involves "2*2", which means 2*2 = 4 is the GCF here.

We can then factor like so

[tex]12x^2 + 4x + 20\\\\4*3x^2 + 4*x + 4*5\\\\4(3x^2 + x + 5)[/tex]

The distributive property pulls out that common 4. We can verify this by distributing the 4 back in, so we get the original expression back again.

The polynomial inside the parenthesis cannot be factored further. Proof of this can be found by looking at the roots and noticing that they aren't rational numbers (use the quadratic formula).

Sally has just finished her thirty-fifth year with her company and is getting ready to retire. during her thirty-five years, sally’s average annual salary was $45,603. how much can sally expect to receive from social security annually if she were to retire today? (assume she will receive 42% of her average annual salary.) a. $191.53 b. $1,915.33 c. $19,153.26 d. $191,532.60

Answers

Using proportions, the amount that Sally can expect to receive from social security annually is given by:

c. $19,153.26.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and this fraction can also represent a percentage of the total amount.

She is expected to receive 42% of her average annual salary of $45,603, hence, considering 0.42 is equivalent to 42%:

A = 0.42 x 45603 = $19,153.26.

Which means that option C is correct.

Gatsby's wild parties cease thereafter, and Daisy goes over to Gatsby's house in the afternoons. On a boiling hot day near the end of the summer, Nick arrives for lunch at the Buchannan's' house; Gatsby and Jordan have also been invited. In the dining room, Daisy pays Gatsby a compliment that makes clear her love for him, and, when Tom notices this, he insists they drive into town. Daisy and Gatsby leave in Tom's blue coupe, while Tom drives Jordan and Nick in Gatsby's garish yellow car. On the way, Tom stops for gas at George Wilson's garage in the valley of ashes, and Wilson tells Tom that he is planning to move west with Myrtle as soon as he can raise the money.
