Solve (find x intercepts) using the quadratic formula

f(x)= -5x^+9x-4​ ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x[/tex]-intercepts at [tex](1,0)[/tex] and [tex](0.8,0)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic in the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c=y[/tex] crosses the [tex]x[/tex]-axis when [tex]y=0[/tex].

The first step is replacing [tex]f(x)[/tex] with [tex]y[/tex].

So: [tex]y= -5x^2+9x-4[/tex]. With the information above, we can find the [tex]x[/tex] intercepts by setting [tex]y = 0[/tex].

Therefore [tex]0=-5x^2+9x-4[/tex].

Now we can use the quadratic formula because it is in the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex].

Note the quadratic formula: [tex]\frac{-b\frac{+}{-}\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a } = x[/tex].

To find the values of [tex]a[/tex],[tex]b[/tex] and [tex]c[/tex] we can compare the equation to the general equation.

Therefore: [tex]a=-5[/tex], [tex]b=9[/tex] and [tex]c=-4[/tex].

Now put these values into the quadratic formula:

[tex]\frac{-9\frac{+}{-}\sqrt{(9)^2-4(-5)(-4)} }{2(-5) } = x[/tex]

And simplify:

[tex]\frac{-9\frac{+}{-}\sqrt{81-80} }{-10 }[/tex] , [tex]\frac{-9\frac{+}{-}\sqrt{1} }{-10 }[/tex].

[tex]\sqrt{1} =1[/tex], therefore [tex]x = \frac{-9\frac{+}{-}1 }{-10 }[/tex]

Now we can have two values for [tex]x[/tex]. One when we take away the discriminant ([tex]b^2-4ac[/tex]) and one when we add it.

So [tex]x = \frac{-10}{-10} = 1[/tex]

or

[tex]x = \frac{-8}{-10} = 0.8[/tex]

Therefore [tex]x[/tex]-intercepts at [tex](1,0)[/tex] and [tex](0.8,0)[/tex]

Sixty percent of the people surveyed use sunscreen. A random number generator was used to simulate the results of asking the next three people. The numbers 0–5 represent people who use sunscreen, and the numbers 6–9 represent people who do not use sunscreen. What is the probability that two of the next three respondents use sunscreen?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Pr = 0.50[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

Probability that 2 of 3 use sunscreen

From the attached data, we have:

[tex]S = \{275, 738, 419, 582, 987, 436, 578, 472, 178, 839\}[/tex]

[tex]n(S) = 10[/tex]

Events where 2 of the 3 uses sunscreen is:

[tex]x = \{275, 419, 582, 436, 472\}[/tex] --- i.e. where 0 -5 represents sunscreen

[tex]n(x) = 5[/tex]

So, the required probability is:

[tex]Pr = \frac{n(x)}{n(S)}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.50[/tex]

Answer:

3/12 = purple

12/144 = yellow and purple

Step-by-step explanation:

the first two are pretty self explanitory. The last one requires you to multiply the answers of the first two together. Make sure you multiply both the top and the bottom (don't use common denominator here)

Answer:

The answer to this is the 3rd choice which is 1a) 4/12, 1b) 3/12, 1c) 12/144.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is pretty simple. To identify the probability of the yellow marbles, you can find the amount of yellow marbles and the total amount of marbles. You take it as a fraction which would be 4/12.

The total amount of marbles : 3 purple + 5 green + 4 yellow = 12 total marbles

The amount of yellow marbles : 4 yellow

Probability of yellow marbles : 4/12

To identify the probability of the yellow marbles, you can find the amount of purple marbles and the total amount of marbles. You take it as a fraction which would be 3/12.

The total amount of marbles : 3 purple + 5 green + 4 yellow = 12 total marbles

The amount of purple marbles : 3 purple

Probability of purple marbles : 3/12

To identify the probability of both the yellow and purple marbles, you can find the amount of yellow and purple marbles along with the total amount of marbles. Since we know this from the work above, you just need to multiply both probabilities. You take it as a fraction which would be 12/144.

The total amount of marbles : 3 purple + 5 green + 4 yellow = 12 total marbles

The amount of yellow marbles : 4 yellow

The amount of purple marbles : 3 purple

Probability of yellow marbles : 4/12

Probability of purple marbles : 3/12

Probability of both marbles : 12/144

Find the value of x

Answers

Answer:

The value of [tex]x[/tex] is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that [tex]\overline{HI}[/tex] and [tex]\overline{HJ}[/tex] are secant to arcs [tex]HI[/tex] and [tex]HJ[/tex], which have the same central angles. Therefore, [tex]HI = HJ[/tex] due to symmetry:

[tex]HI = HJ[/tex] (1)

[tex]2\cdot x + 1 = 5\cdot x - 5[/tex]

[tex]3\cdot x = 6[/tex]

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

Hence, the value of [tex]x[/tex] is 2.

On the same day, Parker’s friend, Peggy, was charged $5 for 1 1/2 lb. of gummy candy. Explain in terms of the graph why this must be a mistake.

Answers

Answer:

After a quick online search, I've found that the complete question is:

a) Parker paid $4.50 for three pounds of gummy candy. Assuming each pound of gummy candy costs  the same amount, complete the table of values representing the cost of gummy candy in pounds.

Then we want to graph the points, and then comes our question:

c) On the same day, Parker’s friend, Peggy, was charged $5 for 1 1/2 lb. of gummy candy. Explain in terms of the graph why this must be a mistake.

So first, we know that this is a proportional relationship (each pound of candy costs the same)

And 0 pounds of candy should cost $0.

Then the relation between y (price) and x (number of lb) is:

y = k*lb

where k is the cost per lb.

Knowing that Parker paid $4.50 for three pounds of gummy candy, the relation is:

$4.50 = k*3lb

($4.50/3lb) = k = $1.50/lb

Then the linear relation is:

y = ($1.50/lb)*x

Now, in this question we can see that Parker's friend was charged $5 for ( 1 and 1/2) lb of candy.

If we replace those values in the equation, we get:

$5 = ($1.50/lb)*(1 + 1/2)lb = $2.25

This equation is false, then, in terms of the graph, the point ( (1 and 1/2)lb, $5) does not belong on the graph that you found in the previous points.

Cody purchased a car for $4500 that will depreciate 28% a year. Write an exponential growth/decay equation that represents the value of Cody's car overtime. How much will the car be worth in 15 years? Round to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

$32.60

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has to to do with exponential decay. The formula is given as:

y = a(1 - r)^x

y = Value of the material after x years

a = Initial value of the material

x = Time in years

r = rate of depreciation or decay

Therefore,

y = 4500 × (1 - 0.28)¹⁵

y = 4500 × 0.72¹⁵

y = $32.598675906

y = Approximately = $32.60

Therefore the of the car after 15 years = $32.60
