The roots of 5x² - 4x + 3 = 0 are non-real

Step-by-step explanation:

In the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0, the discriminant is

b² - 4ac, where a , b , c are constant

  • If b² - 4ac ≥ 0, then the roots of the equation are real
  • If b² - 4ac < 0, then the roots of the equation are non-real

∵ The quadratic equation is 5x² - 4x + 3 = 0

∵ The general form of the quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0

∴ a = 5

∴ b = -4

∴ c = 3

∵ The discriminant is b² - 4ac

- Substitute the value of a , b and c in the discriminant

∴ b² - 4ac = (-4)² - 4(5)(3)

∴ b² - 4ac = 16 - 60

∴ b² - 4ac = -44

∵ -44 < 0

∴ b² - 4ac < 0

∴ The roots of the equations are non-real

The roots of 5x² - 4x + 3 = 0 are non-real

Triangle ABC was dilated and translated to form similar triangle A'B'C'.
Hunter-Best [27]
Dilation refers to a non rigid motion where a figure is transform and its image has the same form but a different size measure.

On this exercise is asked to find the scale factor by which the triangle ABC was 
dilated to produce the triangle A'B'C'. 
Dilation is define by the rule (x,y)-- (kx, ky) where k represents the scale factor.

As can be see on the picture the dilation produce was an enlargement meaning that the image is larger that the preimage.
Of this form you can discard the choices A and B as possible solutions.

Lets try 5/2 as the possible scale factor:
(x,y)-- (kx, ky)
A(0,2)--(5/2(0),5/2(2))=A'(0,5)
B(2,2)--(5/2(2),5/2(2))=B'(5,5)
C(2,0)--(5/2(2),5/2(0))=C'(5,0)

Lets try 5/1 or 5 as the scale factor:
A(0,2)--(5(0),5(2))=A'(0,10)
B(2,2)--(5(2),5(2))=B'(10,10)
C(2,0)--(5(2),5(0))=C'(10,0)

As said at the beginning of the question the triangle was not only dilated.
After a dilation and a translation, the scale factor of the dilation is letter C or 5/2.

The projectile motion of an object can be modeled using s(t) = gt2 + v0t + s0, where g is the acceleration due to gravity, t is
NeX [460]
S(t) =  -4.9t^2 + 19.6t + 24.5

when it reaches the ground s(t) = 0 


so we have -4.9t^2 + 19.6t + 24.5 = 0

solve this for t:-

-4.9(t^2 - 4t - 5) = 0

(t + 1)(t - 5) = 0

so required time t = 5 seconds  

answer 5 seconds

Q3. a cyclist bikes x distance at 10 miles per hour and returns over the same path at 8 miles per hour. what is the cyclist's av
Sladkaya [172]
If he bikes for 10 miles per hour and 8 miles per hour for the same distance x miles, he went 10 miles per hour for x/10 hours, as Distance = Rate*Time and on the way back he would go for x/8 hours. So then he went 2x distance, in x/8 + x/10 hours. Since x/8 + x/10 = 10x/80 + 8x/80 = 18x/80 = 9x/40, he went 2x miles in 9x/40 hours. this can be converted into a rate with the above equation Distance = Rate*Time, so 2x=(9x/40) * Rate, thus we divide by 9x/40 on both sides to get 80x/9x = Rate, the x cancels out, and we get 80/9 Miles per hour.
