For a quadratic function y = ax² + bx + c, suppose the constants a, b, and c are consecutive terms of a geometric sequence. Show that the function does not cut the x axis.

Answers

Answer 1

Hello, because of the geometric sequence we can say that:

[tex]\alpha = \dfrac{b}{a}=\dfrac{c}{b}\\\\\dfrac{c}{a}=\dfrac{c*b}{a*b}=\dfrac{c}{b}\dfrac{b}{a}=\alpha^2\\\\\text{So the equation becomes.}\\\\ax^2+bx+c=0<=>x^2+\dfrac{b}{a}x+\dfrac{c}{a}=0\\\\<=>x^2+\alpha x+ \alpha^2=0\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac = \alpha^2-4\alpha^2=-3\alpha^2 < 0[/tex]

So there is no real root, so the function does not cut the x axis.

Thank you

Answer 2

For the given quadratic function, the x-axis is not cut by the function because there is no true root.

What is a quadratic function?

To determine values for various parameters, quadratic functions are employed in a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines. A parabola is used to graphically illustrate them. The orientation of the curve is defined by the highest degree factor.

As per provided data in question,

α = b/a = c/b

c/a = (c × b)/(a × b) = (c/b) (b/a) = α²

For the equation,

ax² + bx + c = 0

x² + b/a(x) + c/a = 0

⇒ x² + ax + α² =0

Δ = b² - 4 ac = α² - 4α²

Δ = -3α² < 0, which means that no real root is there.

Mr. Ellington has a total of 32 students in his class , The ratio of girls to boys is 3:5, how many girls are in Mr . Ellington's class ?

Answers

Add the ratio: 3 + 5 = 8

Divide total students by that:

32/8 = 4

The ratio for girls is 3, multiply the 4 by 3:

4 x 3 = 12

There are 12 girls

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of girls to boys is 3:5, that means that for every 8 total students, 3 would be girls and 5 would be boys. Therefore 3/8 of the students are girls and 5/8 are boys. If 3/8 are girls, then:

[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] of 32

= [tex]\frac{3}{8} * 32[/tex]

What is Unitary method?

It is a method where we find the value of a single unit from the value of multiple units and the value of multiple units from the value of a single unit.

Steps to Use Unitary Method

First, let us make a note of the information we have. There are 5 ice-creams. 5 ice-creams cost $125.

Step 1: Let’s find the cost of 1 ice cream. In order to do that, divide the total cost of ice-creams by the total number of ice-creams. The cost of 1 ice-cream = Total cost of ice-creams/Total number of ice-creams = 125/5 = 25. Therefore, the cost of 1 ice cream is $25.

Step 2: To find the cost of 3 ice-creams, multiply the cost of 1 ice cream by the number of ice-creams. The cost of 3 ice-creams is cost of 1 ice-cream × number of ice-creams = 25 × 3 = $75. Finally, we have the cost of 3 ice-creams i.e. $75.

Given:

Total number of classes = 9

Number of student in each class = 25

Number of teacher = 4

Number of chaperones = Double of teacher

Bus hold = 45 people

Now,

Total number of student = 9 × 25

                                         = 225

Number of chaperones = 4 × 2

                                         = 8

Total people = 225 + 8 + 4

                     = 237

Least number of bus require for trip = Total people / Bus hold

= 237 / 45

= 5.266

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equatio 2x - 5 = - 3x ^ 2

Answers

alright I can help!

so to find the two values of x that are roots of the equation we need to put the variables all on one side so that we can set up the quadratic formula.

3x^2+2x-5=0 (the -3x^2 becomes positive when moved across the equal sign)

now we can set up the quadratic formula. the equation is x= (-b+-(sqrt of b^2 -4ac))/ 2a

so now we just plug in our variables.

x= (-2+-(sqrt of 2^2 -4×3×-5))/ 2×3

x= (-2+-8)/6

now we just seperate the equations so that we have the two roots. and then just solve!

x= (-2-8)/6 -> x= -5/3

x= (-2+8)/6 -> x=1

Question. 7 Let abc be a three-digit number. Then, abc + bca + cab is not divisible by (a) a + b + c (b) 3 (c) 37 (d) 9

Answers

Answer:

D. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

abc=100a+10b+c

bca=100b+10c+a

cab=100c+10a+b

abc + bca + cab=(100a+10b+c) + (100b+10c+a) + (100c+10a+b)

=100a + 10b + c + 100b + 10c + a + 100c + 10a + b

Collect like terms

=100a + a + 10a + 10b + 100b + b + c + 10c + 100c

=111a + 111b + 111 c

Factorise

=111(a+b+c)

abc + bca + cab = 111(a+b+c)

Factors of 111(a+b+c)= 1, 3, 37, 111, and (a+b+c)

abc + bca + cab is divisible by a+b+c because it is a factor of 111(a+b+c)

abc + bca + cab is divisible by 3 because 3 is a factor of 111(a+b+c)

abc + bca + cab is divisible by 37 because 37 is a factor of 111(a+b+c)

abc + bca + cab is not divisible by 9 because 9 is not a factor of 111(a+b+c)

Answers

Answer: 25.6

First, notice that there is 1 adult and 2 children.

A normal adult ticket costs 24. But it's 1/3 off, so 24 * 1/3 = 8 off. That means with the Railcard, it only costs 24 - 8 = 16.

Next, one child ticket costs 12. But it's 60% = 3/5 off, so 12 * 3/5 = 7.2 off. That means with the Railcard, it only costs 12 - 7.2 = 4.8.

Remember there are 2 children, so we multiply by 2 to get 4.8 * 2 = 9.6 for the children.

Final answer: 1 adult + 2 children = 16 + 9.6 = 25.6.

Hope that helped,

-sirswagger21

Answer:

£25.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Adult tickets cost £24 and ⅓ is off the adult tickets according to the Family Railcard. That is:

24 × ⅓ = £8 is removed from the adult tickets. Therefore:

£24 - £8 = £16

Child tickets cost £12 and 60% is off the child tickets according to the Family Railcard. That is:

12 × 60/100 = £7.20 is removed from the child tickets. Therefore:

£12 - £7.20 = £4.80

To find the total cost of Mr. Brown spent:

1 child = £4.80

2 children = ?

4.80 × 2 = £9.60

1 adult = £16

£16 + £9.60

= £25.60

Mr. Brown spent £25.60 in total.

if AD is the altitude to BC what is the slope of AD

Answers

Answer:

The answer is most likely 1/3

The correct option D. 3.  The slope of AD, where A is (-2, 4), B is (-6, 2), and C is (3, -1), is 1/3 using the slope formula.

Given points :

[tex]A(-2, 4)\\B(-6, 2)\\C(3, -1)[/tex]

To find the slope of AD,  to determine the slope of the line passing through points A and D.

Calculate the slope of the line passing through points A and D using the formula:

slope [tex]= (y_2 - y_1) / (x_2 - x_1).[/tex]

First, let's find the slope of BC using the coordinates of points B and C:

Slope of BC [tex]= (y_2- y_1 / (x_2- x_1)\\[/tex]

Plugging the coordinates of points B and C gives:

[tex]= (-1 - 2) / (3 - (-6))[/tex]

On adding gives:

[tex]= (-3) / (9)[/tex]

On dividing both numerator and denominator by 3

[tex]= -1/3[/tex]

Since A is the altitude to BC, it is perpendicular to BC.

The slope of a line perpendicular to another line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of that line.

Therefore, the slope of AD will be the negative reciprocal of -1/3.

Negative reciprocal of -1/3 = -1 / (-1/3) = 3

Hence, the slope of AD is 3. The option is D. 3

The length of a rectangular field is 6 metres longer than its width. If the area of the field is 72 square metres, What are the width and the length of the field?​

Answers

Answer:

Let's call the length of the field "l", and the width of the field "w".

If the area of the field is 72 square meters, then we have:

l x w = 72

And if the length is 6 meters longer than the width, we have:

l = w+6

So looking at the first equation (l x w = 72), we can substitute the l for a w+6.

And we obtain:

(w+6) x (w) = 72

Which simplifies to w^2 + 6w = 72.

This quadratic equation is pretty easy to solve, you just need to factor it.

w^2 + 6w - 72 = 0

(w-6)(w+12)

This leaves the roots of the  quadratic equation to be 6 and -12, but in this case, a width of -12 wouldn't make sense.

So, the width of the rectangular field is 6, and the length of the field is 12.

Let me know if this helps!

Answer:

we assume one side is x and other side must be x+6 and when we multiple it together we can find x²+6x =72

Step-by-step explanation:

one side is 6 and. other is 12 so the lenght= 12 the width=6

If Shrijan is sitting at 2m from fulcrum, where should Shrijesh sit from fulcrum to balance Shrijan?(Ans: 4m) c) A lever of length 1m has been used ttoko lift a load of 600N by applying an effort of 200N. If load is at 20cm from fulcrum, calculate mechanical advantage, velocity ratio and efficiency. (Ans: MA = 3, VR = 4, n=75%) d) Study the figure below and find the value of effort. (Ans: 120N) Muyn) 2.5m 600N 0.5m ? Science and Enyin What is the maximum speed with which a 1200-kg car can round a turn of radius 94.0 m on a flat road if the coefficient of static friction between tires and road is 0.50? Which group of people would be the most concerned about the operating areas that have contributed to the success of the firm and which have not?
