Solve the Quadratic Equation by factoring. 3r^2-16r-7=5

Mathematics

Alex Ar [27]1 year ago

So first set one side to zero

subtract 5 from both sides
3r^2-16r-12=0
factor

to find the factor in
ax^2+bx+c form when a>1
multiply a and c together
find what 2 numbers add up to b and multiply to ac so

a=3
b=-16
c=-12

ac=3 times -12=-36
factors that add up to -16
2 and -18 is the answer since 2 times -18=-36 and 2-18=-16 so

split the middle number up
3r^2-16r-12=0
3r^2-18r+2r-12=0
group
(3r^2-18r)+(2r-12)=0
factor out common factors
(3r)(r-6)+(2)(r-6)=0
reverse distribute (ab+ac=a(b+c) so
(3r+2)(r-6)=0

set each to zero
r-6=0
add 6
r=6


3r+2=0
subtract 2
3r=-2
divide 3
r=-2/3


r=6 or -2/3

Jackie runs and dances for 75 minutes every day.
Mumz [18]

Answer: A. x + y = 75 B. She spends 25 minutes running and 50 minutes dancing every day. C. Yes it is.

Step-by-step explanation: B. She spends 25 minutes running and 50 minutes dancing every day, because if she dances for 25 more minutes then she runs then we can minus 25 from 75 which we get 50. Then we take the 50 a divide it by 2 because of the two categories dancing and running. So we know she spends 25 minutes running then 25 minutes dancing but we need to add the 25 minutes to dancing. So she spends 25 minutes running and 50 dancing. C. Yes it is because she already dances for 50 minutes a day so all she needs to do is workout for 10 minutes less so 65 minutes one day.

Determine the input value for which the statement f(x) = g(x) is true. From the graph, the input value is approximately_______ .
Julli [10]

In this question , we have a graph given, and we have to find the x coordinate of the intersection point .

From the graph , the input value is approximately 3.3 .

In the graph,

f(x) =3

And for g(x), we need the slope and y intercept .

Slope is the ratio of rise and run .

Here rise equals 3 units and run equals 2 units. And the graph touch the y axis at -2 .

So the equation of g(x) is

g(x) = \frac{3}{2}x -2

We need to do

f(x)= g(x)

Substituting the values of the two functions, we will get

3 = \frac{3}{2}x -2

Adding 2 to both sides

5 = \frac{3}{2}x

Cross multiplication

10 =3x
\\
x = \frac{10}{3}

x = 3.3

So the input value is 3.3 approx

Three judges measure the lap times of a runner and each measurement is different from the others by a few hundredths of a second
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Systematic error

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that none of the judges are biased, the most likely reason for this difference is the occurrence of systematic errors.

Systematic errors are errors introduced by inaccuracy in the experimental design, be it in the observation or measurement process.

In this case, the reaction time from observing the finish and stopping the clock for each judge might be different, which configures a systematic error.
