-2x^2+4x=5

use the Quadratic formula, the equation needs to be in standard form first. Then label a, b and c and plug it into the quadratic formula and simplify using the order of operations.

Answers

Answer 1

The solution of the quadratic equation -2x² + 4x = 5 is; x = 1 ± (1/2)√-6

How to use quadratic formula?

We are given the quadratic equation;

-2x² + 4x = 5

-2x² + 4x - 5 = 0

Quadratic formula for an equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0 is given as; x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/(2a)

From the given quadratic equation, we can see that;

a = -2

b = 4

c = -5

Thus;

x = [-4 ± √(4² - 4*-2*-5)]/(2*-2)

x = [-4 ± √(16 - 40)]/-4

x = -4/-4 ± (1/4)√-24

x = 1 ± (2/4)√-6

x = 1 ± (1/2)√-6

Describe the meaning of c(3) in the context.

The cost of transporting _ crates of sugar is _ dollars.

Answers

Answer:

Blanks: 3 and 460

Step-by-step explanation:

C(3) means the cost of transporting 3 crates of sugar.

It is calculated by substituting the value of n into equation:

C(n) = 400+20nC(3) = 400 + 20*3 = 400 + 60 = 460

The cost of transporting 3 crates of sugar is 460 dollars

Whick of these equations is equivalent to 1 whole 1/2 x 3 whole 1/5 = 4 whole 1/2

Answers

The equations which is equivalent to 1 whole 1/2 x 3 whole 1/5 = 4 whole 1/2 is 3/2 x 16/5 = 9/2.

What is a fraction?

Fractions represent the parts of a whole or collection of objects.

A fraction has two parts. The number on the top of the line is called the numerator and the number on the top of the line is called the denominator.

Now given equation is,

1 whole 1/2 x 3 whole 1/5 = 4 whole 1/2

Converting them into simple fraction we get,

1 whole 1/2 = 3/2

3 whole 1/5 = 16/5

4 whole 1/2 = 9/2

Thus, the equation becomes,

3/2 x 16/5 = 9/2

this is the required equivalent equation for the given equation.

Thus, the equations which is equivalent to 1 whole 1/2 x 3 whole 1/5 = 4 whole 1/2 is 3/2 x 16/5 = 9/2.

ticket were sold?

Answers

Answer:

non-cardholder: 152

cardholder: 147

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make a system of equations

c=cardholder

n=non-cardholder

1. c + n = 299

2. 1.25c + 2.50n = 563.75

Write 1 as n = 299-c

Write 2 as cents, 125c + 250n = 56375

n= 299-c

125c + 250n = 56375

Substitute n with 299 - c

125c + 250(299-c) = 56375

125c + 74750 - 250c = 56375

74750 - 125c = 56375

125c = 18375

c = 147

n = 299 - c

n = 299 - c = 152

There are 45 marbles in a jar, and 80% of them are blue. How many blue marbles are in the jar?

Answers

If 80 % (percentage) of marbles are blue then there are 36 blue marbles.

Percentage is the process of representing parts of a number by dividing the number into equal hundreds.

If the total amount is equivalent to 100 then the percentage denotes the number which is identical to the part of the number. In other words percentage denoted as % is part of 100.

The process of converting a part into percentage is by dividing the part by the total amount and multiplying the result by 100.

Now the total number of marbles in the jar is 45 and 80% of them are blue.

Now let us consider this :

so 80% of 45 = 80/100 × 45

or, blue marbles = 36

Hence the number of blue marbles is 36.

Answers

the expression that represents the perimeter of the rectangle is 19d-5.4f.

What is periemeter?

Perimeter can be defined as the total distance around an object.

To calculate the expression representing perimeter of  the rectangle, we use the formula below.

Formula:

P = 2(l+w).............. Equation 1

Where:

P = Perimter of the rectanglel = Length of the rectanglew = width of the rectangle

From the question,

Given:

l = (2.4d-7.6f) cmw = (7.2d-4.9d) cm

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = 2[(2.4d-7.6f)+(7.2d-4.9f)]P = (4.8d-15.2f)+(14.2d-9.8f)P = 19d-5.4f

Find the measure of the arc or central angle indicated. Assume that lines which appear to be diameters are actual diameters.

Answers

The measure of the central angle m∠UQR is 130 degrees.

How to find central angles?

Central angle is the angle formed by two arms and having the vertex at the centre of a circle.

The diameter of a circle runs from the centre of a circle.

The diameter SU and RT intersect each other at point Q.

Therefore,

m∠UQT = m∠RQS (Vertically opposite angles)

m∠UQR = m∠TQS (Vertically opposite angles)

Hence,

m∠RQS = 50°

Therefore,

m∠UQR = 360 - 50 + 50  / 2

m∠UQR = 360 - 100 / 2

m∠UQR = 260 / 2

m∠UQR = 130°

Using 3.14 as the value of pi, and radius of 10, the area of the circle is given as 314.00 inches

How to solve for the area of a circle

The formula for the area of a circle is given as

πr² in terms of radius, r.

The radius is related to the diameter, d by  r = d/2. so the area of a circle can also be in terms of the diameter, which is given as

πd²/4 in terms of diameter of a circle

We have been given the radius of the question as 10

x > -2

The domain is the set of all real numbers larger than -2.

Now the range is trivial, for all logarithmic functions the range is the set of all real numbers.

What are the mean and the standard deviation of a data-set?

The mean of a data-set is given by the sum of all values in the data-set, divided by the number of values.The standard deviation of a data-set is given by the square root of the sum of the differences squared between each observation and the mean, divided by the number of values.

For this problem, the are 5 values, hence:

n = 5.

The sum of the values is given by:

6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 40.

Hence:

[tex]\sum x = 40[/tex]

The mean is given by:

40/5 = 8.

Hence:

[tex]\bar{x} = \frac{\sum x}{n} = 8[/tex]

The sum of the differences squared between each observation and the mean is:

(6 - 8)² + (7 - 8)² + (8 - 8)² + (9 - 8)² + (10 - 8)² = 10.

Hence:

[tex]\sum (x - \bar{x})^2 = 10[/tex]

Dividing by the number of values, we have that 10/5 = 2, hence:

[tex]\frac{\sum (x - \bar{x})^2}{n} = 2[/tex]
