Find the value of the discriminant, the number and types of solution(s). 2x2−6x−15=−7

Answers

Answer 1

The equation has 2 irrational roots and two real distinct solutions.

What is a real distinct solution?

It is a solution to an equation that occurs only once and differs in value from other solutions.  If the discriminant is zero, there are no real solutions. The discriminant equation is Δ = b² - 4ac. If the discriminant is greater than zero it has two irrational roots. Another alternative for a distinct solution is the coincident solution. The values of the discriminant show how many roots and solutions the equation may contain.

Given, 2x² - 6x - 15 = - 7

The discriminant of the equation is D = b² - 4ac

Here, a = 2, b = - 6, c = - 15

D= 36 - 4(2)(-15)

36 + 120 = 156

Here, D > 0 and it is not a perfect square.

So, the equation has 2 irrational roots.

And the equation has two real distinct solutions.

The length of AC is 2.96 units using trigonometric ratio.

What are the trigonometric ratios?

Sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan), cotangent (cot), cosecant (cosec), and secant are the six trigonometric ratios. A branch of mathematics called trigonometry in geometry deals with the sides and angles of a right-angled triangle.

Given that angle A = 65° and AB = 7 units.

The base of △ABC is AC, height is BC, and hypotenuses is AB.

Cosine of angle is the ratio of base to hypotenuses.

Thus cos  65° = AC/AB

Substitute AB = 7

cos  65° = AC/7

Multiply both sides by 7:

7 × cos  65° = AC

Putting cos  65° = 0.42261826174

7 × 0.42261826174 =AC

AC = 2.95832783218

AC = 2.96 (nearest hundredth)

The difference of a number and 6 is the same as 5 times the sum of the number and 2. What is the number?A 4B. -2C -1D. 1

Answers

You need to know the following:

1. The "difference" is the result of a subtraction.

2. The word "times" indicates a multiplication.

3. The sum is the result of an addition.

Let be "n" the number mentioned in the exercise.

Knowing the explained above, you know that "the difference of a number and 6" can expressed as:

[tex]n-6[/tex]

And "5 times the sum of the number and 2" can be expressed as:

Leah is buying titles for her bathroom. Each tile is 3/8 foot wide and covers an area that is 7/3 square feet. The bathroom floor is in the shape of a rectangle. She is putting 8 tiles along the longer wall of the bathroom and 5 tiles along the shorter wall of the bathroom. What is the perimeter of the bathroom? The bathroom and one tile are pictured below.

Answers

The perimeter of the rectangular floor is 103 feet.

What are rectangles?With four sides, four corners, and four right angles (90°), a rectangle is a closed 2-D object. A rectangle's opposing sides are equal and parallel.Since a rectangle is a two-dimensional form, it has two dimensions: length and width. The rectangle's length is its longer side, while its width is its shorter side.

So, the perimeter of the bathroom floor will be:

First, let the length of the tiles be 'x'.

Now,

7/3 = x × 3/8x = 7/3 ÷ 3/8x = 7/3 × 8/3x = 56/9

So, the length of the tile is 56/9.

Now, the l and b of the rectangular floor will be:

56/9 × 8 + 3/8 × 5448/9 + 15/88(448) + 9(15)/723584 + 135/723719/7251.65

Formula is: 2(l+b)

Now,

2 × 51.65103.3

Rounding off: 103 feet

Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangular floor is 103 feet.

for 4 tickets and 4 T-shirts was $384. How much did each ticket and each T-shirt cost?

Answers

The cost of 1 ticket is $80 and the cost of 1 T-Shirt is $16    .

In the question ,

it is given that ,

a family of four people went to see a live concert in Vancouver ,

and the price of T-shirt is 1/5 of the price of the ticket .

let the price of 1 ticket be = x ,

so , the price of 1 T-Shirt be = x/5 .

also given that the bill for 4 tickets and 4 T-Shirts was $384 ,

that means

4x + 4x/5 = 384

taking LCM as 20 and solving further ,

we get,

20x/5 + 4x/5 = 384

24x/5 = 384

24x = 384*5

24x = 1920

x = 1920/24

x = 80

the cost for T-Shirt = 80/5 = 16

Therefore , The cost of 1 ticket is $80 and the cost of 1 T-Shirt is $16    .

When need to snack bags, each bag contain 3/4 cup

So, to find the number of bags, divide 10 1/2 by 3/4

so, the number of bags =

[tex]10\frac{1}{2}\div\frac{3}{4}=\frac{21}{2}\div\frac{3}{4}=\frac{21}{2}\cdot\frac{4}{3}=7\cdot2=14[/tex]

3.152 written as an improper fraction or a mixed number and explained how it was done.

Answers

Answer: 3.152 as an improper fraction would be: 394 / 125

Step-by-step explanation: You can take any number, such as 3.152, and write a 1 as the denominator to make it a fraction and keep the same value, like this:

3.152 / 1

To get rid of the decimal point in the numerator, we count the numbers after the decimal in 3.152, and multiply the numerator and denominator by 10 if it is 1 number, 100 if it is 2 numbers, 1000 if it is 3 numbers, and so on.

Therefore, in this case we multiply the numerator and denominator by 1000 to get the following fraction:

3152 / 1000

Then, we need to divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest common divisor (GCD) to simplify the fraction.

The GCD of 3152 and 1000 is 8. When we divide the numerator and denominator by 8, we get the following:

394 / 125

Answer: x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

   We will isolate the variable x to solve this equation.

   Given:

-2/3 (x-7) = 1/6 (x+1) -3

   Distribute:

-2/3x + 14/3 = 1/6 (x+1) -3

-2/3x + 14/3 = 1/6x + 1/6 -3

   Combine like terms on the right side using subtraction:

-2/3x + 14/3 = 1/6x - 17/6

   Subtract 1/6x from both sides of the equation:

-5/6x + 14/3 = - 17/6

   Subtract 14/3 from both sides of the equation:

-5/6x = -15/2

   Divide both sides of the equation by -5/6:

Lightning in area     88%           2%                           90%

Column Totals           95%          5%                          100%

The false negative is when there is lighting and it does not activate

So, we have

False negative = 2%

The false positive is when  there is no lighting and it activates

So, we have

False positive = 7%

When represented as ratio, we have

Ratio = 7% : 2%

So, we have

Ratio = 7 : 2
