If the squared difference of the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial x2+kx+30 is equal to 169 find the value of k and the zeroes
anyanavicka [17]

ANSWER

x  =  2 \: \: or \:  \:  x  =  15

Or

x  =   - 2 \: \: or \:  \:  x  =   -  15

EXPLANATION

The given polynomial is

f(x) = {x}^{2}  + kx + 30

where a=1,b=k, c=30

Let the zeroes of this polynomial be m and n.

Then the sum of roots is

m + n =  -  \frac{b}{a}  =  -k

and the product of roots is

mn =  \frac{c}{a}  = 30

The square difference of the zeroes is given by the expression.

( {m - n})^{2} =  {(m + n)}^{2} - 4mn

From the question, this difference is 169.

This implies that:

( { - k)}^{2}  - 4(30) = 169

{  k}^{2}  -120= 169

k^{2} = 289

k=  \pm \sqrt{289}

k=  \pm17

We substitute the values of k into the equation and solve for x.

f(x) = {x}^{2}   \pm17x + 30

f(x) = (x  \pm2)(x  \pm 15)

The zeroes are given by;

(x  \pm2)(x  \pm 15) = 0

x  =  \pm2 \: \: or \:  \:  x  =  \pm 15

Nitella [24]

Answer:

x + 2y = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line goes through (-4, 0) and (4, -4).

The slope is (-4 - 0) / (4 - -4) = -4 / (4 + 4) = -4 / 8 = -1/2.

Since we are looking for the equation of the line parallel to that line, the slope will be the same.

We have an equation of y = -1/2x + b. We have a point at (2, 3). We can then say that y = 3 when x = 2.

3 = (-1/2) * 2 + b

b - 1 = 3

b = 4.

So, we have y = -1/2x + 4.

1/2x + y = 4

x + 2y = 8.

Hope this helps!

A manager states that his process is really working well. Out of 1,500 parts, 1,477 were produced free of a particular defect an
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The answer is explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

Out of 1500 units produced by a company 1,477 are found to be free of a particular type of defect. One needs to rate the performance based on Six Sigma Theory.

STEP 2

Manager can define the performance of a product using defects per million units DPMO metric

DPMO can be find by using

DPMO = Total number of defects in a sample/ No. of opportunities of per error per unit x No. of units * 1,000,000

          = 1500 - 1477/ 1 x 1500* 1,000,000

          = 23/1500

          = 15,333,33

The defect rate of the process can be find by

Defect rate = No. of defects/ No. of units * 100

                   = 1500 - 1477/1500 * 100

                   = 23/1500 * 100

                   = 1.53%

Six Sigma theory focuses on achieving 3.4 defects per million for a certain period of time. However in this, performance of the process is not as good as stated by the manager.
