If using the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation
x2 -9x + 2 = 0, which number would have to be added to "complete the square"?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Add the square of half of the coefficient of [tex]x[/tex] to both sides

[tex]\left(-\dfrac92\right)^2=\dfrac{81}{4}[/tex]

Completing the square:

Rewrite  [tex]x^2-9x+2=0[/tex]  in the form  [tex]y=(x-b)^2 +c[/tex]

Add the square of half of the coefficient of [tex]x[/tex] to both sides:

[tex]\implies x^2-9x+2+\left(-\dfrac92\right)^2=\left(-\dfrac92\right)^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies x^2-9x+2+\dfrac{81}{4}=\dfrac{81}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\implies\left(x-\dfrac92\right)^2 +2=\dfrac{81}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\implies\left(x-\dfrac92\right)^2 +2-\dfrac{81}{4}=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies\left(x-\dfrac92\right)^2 -\dfrac{73}{4}=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies\left(x-\dfrac92\right)^2 -\dfrac{73}{4}=0[/tex]

The population of a certain town was 50,000.In a year,male population
was increased by 5% and female population was increased by 3%. Now
the population beame 52020. Then what was the number of males and
females in the previous year?
olution:- Let the number of males in previous year be x,number of females​

Answers

Answer: Male population = 26,000

               Female population = 24,000

Step-by-step explanation: Male population = X

                                             Female population = Y

               x+y=50,000

               y=50,000-x-(1st equation)

Again (x+x X 5%) + (y+y X 3%) = 52,020

-> x+5x/100 + y+3y/100 = 52020

->  100x+5x+100y+3y =52020

   ________________

                100

-> 105x+103y = 52020-( 2nd Equation)

Putting Eq 1 into 2 ,

105x+103 ( 50,000-x)= 52,020

-> 105x + 5,150,000-103x = 52,020

->2x = 52,020-5,150,000

->2x = 52,000

    x = 26,000 (Male population)

    y = 50,000-26,000

       = 24,000 (Female population)  

   

   

             

One gram of protein contains 4 calories. One gram of fat contains 9 calories. A snack has 60 calories from p grams of protein and f grams of fat. The equation 4p + 9f = 60 represents the relationship between these quantities. If there are 6 grams of fat in the snack, how many grams of protein are there? Show your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

1.5 grams of protein.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that represents the relationship between protein and fat is as follows :

4p + 9f = 60 ....(1)

We need to find the grams of protein are there if there are 6 grams of fat in the snack.

Put f = 6 in the above equation (1).

4p + 9(6)= 60

4p + 54 = 60

Subtract 54 to the both sides,

4p + 54-54 = 60-54

4p = 6

p = 1.5 grams

It means the snack contains 1.5 grams of protein.

Answers

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4(1 - x) + 3x = -2(x+1)

Solving for x

4(1 - x) + 3x = -2(x+1)4 - 4x + 3x = -2x - 24 - x = -2x - 2- x + 2x = - 2 - 4x = - 6

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

4(1 - x) + 3x = -2(x + 1)

~Distribute both sides

4 - 4x + 3x = -2x - 2

~Combine like terms

4 - x = -2x - 2

~Add x to both sides

4 = -x - 2

~Add 2 to both sides

6 = -x

~Divide -1 to both sides

-6 = x

Best of Luck!

Kim's softball team was playing in the championship game. When there were 4 innings left, the team was losing by a score of 17 to 6 points.

Write an inequality to determine the number of points per inning, ppp, Kim's team could have scored. Write an inequality to determine the number of points per inning, ppp, Kim's team could have scor Find the minimum whole number of points per inning Kim's team could have scored.

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Score when there were 4 innings left = 17 to 6

Kim's team = 6 ; opposition team = 17

Opposition didn't score any point in the last 4 innings

Kim's team scored same number of points per inning and also won with the most points

Minimum Number of points Kim's team could have scored per inning :

Let number of points scored in each of the last 4 innings = p

Since they also won eventually:

Then

4p + initial points > opposition point

4p + 6 > 17

4p > 17 - 6

4p > 11

p > 11/4

p > 2.75

Hence, the minimum number of points Kim's team could have scored per inning in the last 4 would be 3( nearest whole number)

12
Exactly 9 of the 12 soccer players prachoed for between 7 and 8 hours last week
Exactly 9 of the 12 soccer players practiced for at least 7 5 hours last week
Exactty 3 of the 12 soccer players practiced for between 7 and 8 hours last week
Exactly 3 of the 12 soccer players practiced for at least 7 5 hours last week​

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

Exactly 3 of the 12 soccer players practiced for at least 75 hours last week,

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The number of soccer players that practiced = 12 soccer players

The first quartile of the data of the recorded number of hours each soccer player practiced = 75

Therefore, given that that there are 12 soccer players, the number of data points = 12

The value of the 1st quartile is the value of the (n + 1)/4th term

When n = 12, we have;

The 12th quartile = (12 + 1)/4 = 3.25 th term with the values arranged in increasing order;

Therefore, the first quarter has the values for the first 3 players, with the lower practiced hour recorded while the recorded time for the remaining 9 players come after the first quartile;

The correct option is therefore that it must be true that exactly 3 (since we do not represent a player with the remaining fraction of 0.25 in 3.25) of the 12 soccer players practiced for at least 75 hours last week.

The length of a rectangular room is 4 feet longer than twice the width. If the room’s perimeter is 140 feet, what are the room’s dimensions?

Answers

Answer:

Width = 22ft  Length = 48ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = 2(w) + 4

I personally first picked a random number (20) and I got 128, so I knew I had to pick a larger number.

I skipped up to 22 and this is what I did.

W = 22(2) <--(Since there are two width sides) = 44

L = 2(w) + 4

L = 2(22) + 4

L = 44 + 4 = 48

48(2) <--(Since there are two length sides) = 96

96 + 44 = 140

Rachel bought new school supplies for herself at Target. Pencil packs were $4.75, markers were $6.80, and folders were $8.64. If she bought 7 folders, 2 pencil packs, and 3 packs of markers, how much money did she save if she had a 15% discount coupon?

Answers

Answer:

She saved $13.56

Step-by-step explanation:

$8.64 x 7 folders = $60.48

$4.75 x 2 packs of pencils = $9.50

$6.80 x 3 packs of markers = $20.40

$60.48 + $9.50 +$20.40 = $90.38

$90.38 - 15% = $76.82 (76.823)

She saved a total of $13.56 (13.557)

Answer:

Rachel saved $13.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Pencil Packs: 2 x $4.75 = $9.50
