Answer:
- 0.7
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the general quadratic formula, as "
. " This can be represented by two separate formula's, which will come in handy when determining the positive and negative roots of the equation ( and here we need the negative root ):
1 )
,
2 ) 
We know that a = 1, b = - 5, and c = - 4 from the equation "
" ( which can be rewritten in the form
). Therefore, simply plug in these values into the quadratic formula to receive two solutions:
- This is our positive solution
__________
- And this is our negative solution
You can see that - 0.7 is the negative real number solution to Joline's quadratic equation!
Answer:
<u>The sum of their ages now is 13</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Dally's age = x
Dilly's age = x - 7
In 4 years time Dilly will be half Dally’s age, therefore:
Dilly's age plus four equals to half of Dally’s age plus four,
replacing with the values and variables we know:
x - 7 + 4 = (x + 4) /2
x - 3 = (x + 4) /2
2x - 6 = x + 4 (Multiplying by 2 at both sides)
2x - x = 4 + 6 (Like terms)
x = 10 ⇒ x - 7 = 3
<u>The sum of their ages now is 13 (10 + 3)</u>
Answer:
the probability the rock has raritanium is 0.9670
Step-by-step explanation:
These events have been defined as
Z: sample has raritanium
Y: the reading from detector is positive
Z': sample has no raritanium
Y': Reading from detector is negative
P(z) = 0.13
P(y'/z) = 0.02
P(y/z')= 0.005
We need to find p(z/y)
= p(z/y) = p(z ∩ y)/p(y)
= P(z) - p(z∩y)/0.13 = 0.02
Remember the value of p(z) = 0.13
So when we cross multiply we get
0.13 - p(z ∩ y) = 0.02 x 0.13
0.13 - p(z ∩ y) = 0.0026
-p(z ∩ y) = 0.0026 - 0.13
Such that
p(z ∩ y) = 0.1274
P(y/z')= 0.005
P(z∩y') = 0.005
Since p(z) = 0.13
P(z') = 1-0.13
P(y) - p(z∩y)/0.87 = 0.005
We cross multiply
P(y) - 0.1274 = 0.005x0.87
P(y) = 0.1274+0.00435
P(y) = 0.13175
We have 0.1274/0.13175
= 0.9670
So we conclude that probability rock has raritanium is 0.9670
I think that you typed wrongly. That has to be f(x)= -2x+8
If f(x)= -2x+8, we can solve that problem.
We replace x= -1.8 in that expression, that means: f(-1.8)= -2x(-1.8)+8= 3.6+8=11.6
But if the formula of f(x)=-2+8, that means f(x) has a stable value and that value is -2+8=6.
So for all x we always have f(x)=f(-1.8)=6
Lets use the formula
to solve this, where,
- R is the rate
- W is the number of workers/things
- T is time
- J is number of jobs/things
<em><u>"If it takes 10 seconds for 10 printers to print out 10 pages of paper"</u></em> - here -
W is 10 printers, T is 10 seconds, and J is 10 pages. We can write:

<u><em>"how many seconds will it take 50 printers to print out 50 pages of paper"</em></u><em> - here we use
(previously found) to figure out T.</em>
<em>
</em>
So it will take 10 seconds for 50 printers to print 50 pages.
ANSWER: 10 seconds
