Answer:

The graph is possible for $b^2-4ac=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The discriminant of a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$D=b^2-4ac$

If D=0 the quadratic equation has only one real solution

If D>0 the quadratic equation has two real solutions

If D<0 the quadratic equation has no real solution (complex solutions)

In this problem , looking at the graph, the quadratic equation has two real solutions (the solutions are the x-intercepts)

$b^2-4ac > 0$

therefore

The graph is possible for $b^2-4ac=4$

The state of south dakota has a population of about 814,000 people. Find the population density in people per square miles if th

Gnom [1K]

Remark

Not many per square mile. Sounds like an ideal place to live.

Step One

Find the number of Square Miles.

Area = Height * Width

Area = 380 * 200

Area = 76,000 square miles.

Step Two

Find the Density

<u>Formula</u>

Density = Population / Square Miles

Population = 814,000 people

Square miles = 76000

Solve

Density = 814000/76000 = 10.7 people per square mile.

Remark

Isn't that incredible. It means if all the Area of South Dakota were given to the people living there, each family of 4 would get roughly 1/2 a square mile.

Event: Probability: A. Too much enamel 0.18 B. Too little enamel 0.24 C. Uneven application 0.33 D. No defects noted 0.47

let P(AC) = x, P(BC) = y, then P(A) + P(B) + P(C) - (x+y) = 1-0.47 = 0.53 x+y = 0.22
3. The probability of paint defects that results to <span>an improper amount of paint and uneven application? </span>
P(A U B U C) = 0.53

4. <span>the probability of a paint defect that results to</span>
<span>the proper amount of paint, but uneven application?</span>
P(C) - P(AC) - P(BC) = 0.47 - 0.22 = 0.25

A and B are disjoint so P(ABC) = 0, but you can have P(AC) and P(BC). you can't compute these separately here, but you can compute P(AC) + P(BC). By the way, P(AC) eg is just an abbreviated version of P(A∩C).

a shopkeeper sold goods for rs 2400 and made a profit of 25% in the process. find his profit per cent if he had sold his goods f

miv72 [106K]

case 1,

Let the CP be ₹x,

SP = ₹2400

Profit = SP – CP

= 2400 – x

Profit % = {(2400–x)/ x} × 100%

According to the question,

{(2400–x)/ x} × 100 = 25

=> (2400–x)/ x= 25 /100

=> 100(2400–x) = 25x [ cross multiplication]

=> 240000 – 100x = 25x

=> 240000 = 25x + 100x

=> 240000 = 125x

=> 240000/125 = x

=> x = 1920

So, CP = ₹1920

case 2,

SP = ₹2040

Profit = SP – CP

= 2040 – 1920

= ₹120

profit % = 120/1920 × 100%

= 16%

<h3>Thus, his profit would be 16% if he had sold his goods for ₹2040.</h3>

The sum of the interior angles, s, in an n-sided polygon can be determined using the formula s = 180(n – 2), where n is the numb

pshichka [43]

S = 180° ( n - 2 )
The equation for n is:
n = s / 180° + 2
s = 1,260°
n = ( 1,260° : 180° ) + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
Answer:
A polygon has 9 sides.

If a baseball player hits a baseball from 4 feet off the ground with an initial velocity of 64 feet per second, how long will it

topjm [15]

Answer:

0.64 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation provided:

h = −16t2 + 4t + 4

h is the height of the ball and t is time. Since we want to find the time when the ball touches the floor, then height is 0. This leaves us with the equation

-16 $t^{2}$ + 4t + 4 = 0
