Solve the following equation:
3x² = -12
a. X-2
b.
x=-2
C. No real solutions
d.
x= ±2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf Option\ C.}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

3x² = -12

Divide both sides by 3

x² = -12/3

x² = -4

Take square root on both sides

√x² = √-4

x = √-1 × √4

We know that [tex]\sqrt{-1} =i[/tex]

x = ±2i

i(iota) is an imaginary number. So, we can say that the equation has no real solutions.

Assume that the average healthy body temperature is 98.249 degrees and the standard deviation is 0.733 degrees. How many standard deviations below the mean would I be if my body temp is 97.2 degrees,

Answers

The standard deviation is 1.43 below the mean

How to determine the number of standard deviation?

The given parameters are:

Mean = 98.249

Standard deviation = 0.733

x = 97.2

To calculate the number of standard deviation below the mean, we use

[tex]x = \bar x - n\sigma[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]97.2 = 98.249 - n * 0.7333[/tex]

Evaluate the like terms

[tex]-1.049 =- n * 0.7333[/tex]

On a piece of graph paper, plot the following points: A (0, 0), B (5, 0), and C (2, 4). These coordinates will be the vertices of a triangle. How would you use the distance formula to determine what kind of triangle this is? Is the triangle equilateral, right, or scalene? Now use the midpoint formula to determine the midpoints of the triangle's sides: segments AB, BC, and CA. Connect the midpoints to make four triangles within the first triangle. Are these four triangles similar?

Answers

The triangle is an isosceles triangle and the four triangles are similar

How to determine the triangle type?

The coordinates are given as:

A (0, 0), B (5, 0), and C (2, 4).

Calculate the distance between the coordinates using:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 +(y_2 -y_1)^2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]AB = \sqrt{(0 -5)^2 +(0-0)^2} =5[/tex]

[tex]AC = \sqrt{(0 -2)^2 +(0-4)^2} =4.5[/tex]

[tex]BC = \sqrt{(5 -2)^2 +(0-4)^2} =5[/tex]

The above shows that two sides are congruent.

Hence, the triangle is an isosceles triangle

The midpoints of the sides

This is calculated using:

(x, y) = 0.5 * (x1 + x2, y1 + y2)

So, we have:

AB = 0.5 * (0 + 5, 0 + 0) = (2.5, 0)

AC = 0.5 * (0 + 2, 0 + 4) = (1, 2)

BC = 0.5 * (5 + 2, 0 + 4) = (3.5, 2)

Find the slope between the two points given. Then, use the slope and one of the points to write the
equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form. State the slope and y-intercept.

Answers

Answer:

The slope is -2

y =-2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is -2 or -2/1.

The slope is the change in y over the change in x.  The ordered pair is written in the form (x,y)  The first number is the x coordinate and the second number is the y coordinate.

(1, -3) (0, -1)  The -1 and the -3 are the y coordinates.  We subtract these.

-1 -(-3)  is the same as

- 1 + 3  which is 2.  

(1, -3) (0, 1,) the 1 and the 0 are the x coordinates.  We subtract these

0 - 1  is -1

The change in y is 2 and the change in x is -1, so our slope is -2/1 which is the same as -2.

To write the equation we need the slope and the y intercept.  We have the slope now.  We need to find the y-intercept.  We will use the slope and one of the points to find the y-intercept.  It does not matter which of the two points (1,-3) or (0,-1).  I will use (0,-1)

y = mx + b The b is the y-intercept which is what we are looking for

-1 = -2(0) + b

-1 = 0 + b

-1 = b

y = -2x -1

. Which of the following is parallel to
5x + 2y = 1?

Answers

Answer:

when the question is rearranged so that y is by itself, any of the options that say - 2.5x will be parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y = 1

to get y by itself, simple algebra rules must be applied.

1. subtract 5x from both sides.

5x - 5x + 2y = 1 - 5x

2y = 1 - 5x

divide both sides by 2

2y / 2 = 1 / 2 - 5x / 2

twos cancel out on the left1/2 = 0.5- 5x /2 = - 2.5x

therefore the new equation is:

y = 0.5 - 2.5x

this is very close to standard form for a line which is y = mx + b

rearrange the right side of the equals sign:

y = -2.5x + 0.5

in a standard linear equation, the x value determines the gradient of the line. therefore, anything with the same gradient (in this case -2.5x) will be parallel to the given equation.

(f) How many hours did it take for the population to reach 72,000? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

From the calculation, the growth rate is 0.88.

What is the growth rate?

To find the relative growth rate

P1 = Poe^rt

P2 = Poe^rt

Thus;

1920 = Poe^4r ------ (1)

1966080 =Poe^12r -------(2)

P2/P1 gives;

1966080/1920 = Poe^12r/Poe^4r

1024 = e^12r/e^4r

1024 =e^8r

1024 = (e^r)^8

2^10 = (e^r)^8

e^r = 2^1.25

e^r = 2.38

r = ln(2.38)

r = 0.88

The initial size of the culture is;

1920 = Poe^(0.88 * 4)

Po = 1920/e^(0.88 * 4)

Po = 57

The  expression for the exact number of bacteria after t hours is

P(t) = 57e^0.08t

The growth (in bacteria per hour) after 9.5 hours is

P(t) = 57e^(0.88 * 9.5)

P(t) = 243544

For the number to reach 72,000;

72,000 =  57e^0.88t

72,000/57 = e^0.88t

ln 126 = ln[e^0.88t]

A clothing business finds there is a linear relationship between the number of shirts, n , it can sell and the price, p , it can charge per shirt. In particular, historical data shows that 1,000 shirts can be sold at a price of $30 , while 3,000 shirts can be sold at a price of $14 . Find a linear equation in the form p(n)=mn+b that gives the price p they can charge for n shirts.



Because this answer involves an expression that is more complex than a whole number times n , remember to type in multiplication symbols *. For example, if you wanted to enter 12n , type this in as (1/2)*n.

Answers

The value P price they charges for shirts is (-0.008n) + 38

According to the statement

we have given that the 1,000 shirts can be sold at a price of $30 , while 3,000 shirts can be sold at a price of $14 .

And we have to find the linear equation.So,

Let p = price

n = number of shirts

m = slope of the line   (note, the more shirts, the lower the price, so we know it's going to be negative)

b = y intercept

And they gives us the two points like here (1000, $30) and (3000, $14) which have to be on our line.

To find the slope m, you use m = (p₁-p₂)/(n₁-n₂)

Filling in from our points       m = (30-14)/(1000-3000)

                                         m = 16/-2000

                                         m = -0.008

Now that we have the slope and a point, we can find our equation

p-p₁=m(n-n₁)

p-30=(-.008)(n-1000)

p-30= (-.008n) + 8

p=(-.008n) + 38

So, The value P price they charges for shirts is (-0.008n) + 38
