We want to find the zeros of this polynomial:
p(x) = (2x2 – 9x + 7)(x - 2)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "x2" was replaced by "x^2".

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

p*(x)-((2*x^2-9*x+7)*(x-2))=0

STEP

1

:

Equation at the end of step 1

px - (((2x2 - 9x) + 7) • (x - 2)) = 0

STEP

2

:

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1 Factoring 2x2-9x+7

The first term is, 2x2 its coefficient is 2 .

The middle term is, -9x its coefficient is -9 .

The last term, "the constant", is +7

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • 7 = 14

Step-2 : Find two factors of 14 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -9 .

-14 + -1 = -15

-7 + -2 = -9 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -7 and -2

2x2 - 7x - 2x - 7

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

x • (2x-7)

Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

1 • (2x-7)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

(x-1) • (2x-7)

Which is the desired factorization

Equation at the end of step

:

px - (2x - 7) • (x - 1) • (x - 2) = 0

STEP

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly

Solving 2x2-9x+7 = 0 directly

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

5.1 Find the Vertex of y = 2x2-9x+7

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex . Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) . We know this even before plotting "y" because the coefficient of the first term, 2 , is positive (greater than zero).

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is 2.2500

Plugging into the parabola formula 2.2500 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :

y = 2.0 * 2.25 * 2.25 - 9.0 * 2.25 + 7.0

or y = -3.125

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for : y = 2x2-9x+7

Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={ 2.25}

Vertex at {x,y} = { 2.25,-3.12}

x -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at {x,y} = { 1.00, 0.00}

Root 2 at {x,y} = { 3.50, 0.00}

3 Solving 2x2-9x+7 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula, x , the solution for Ax2+Bx+C = 0 , where A, B and C are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

- B ± √ B2-4AC

x = ————————

2A

In our case, A = 2

B = -9

C = 7

Accordingly, B2 - 4AC =

81 - 56 =

25

Applying the quadratic formula :

9 ± √ 25

x = —————

4

Can √ 25 be simplified ?

Yes! The prime factorization of 25 is

5•5

To be able to remove something from under the radical, there have to be 2 instances of it (because we are taking a square i.e. second root).

√ 25 = √ 5•5 =

± 5 • √ 1 =

± 5

So now we are looking at:

x = ( 9 ± 5) / 4

Two real solutions:

x =(9+√25)/4=(9+5)/4= 3.500

or:

x =(9-√25)/4=(9-5)/4= 1.000

Answers

Given:

Player 1 is at (-7,5).

Player 2 is at (7,5).

To find:

The relationship between the positions of the two players.

Solution:

The two points are (-7,5) and (7,5).

Here, x-coordinates are different but y-coordinates are same. The absolute values of x-coordinates are equal but the signs are different.

The transformation is defined as

[tex](x,y)\to (-x,y)[/tex]

It means, the points are mirror image of each other with respect to y-axis.

Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

The HCF of two numbers is 20. The LCM of both numbers is a multiple of 14. One number is greater than the other, work out the smallest possible numbers

Answers

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the HCF of two numbers is 20 and the LCM of both numbers is a multiple of 14.

So, the LCM of both numbers = 14n where n can be any natural number.

As HCF of two numbers is always smaller than or equal to the smallest number among both the numbers.

Here, the HCF of two numbers is 20, so the smallest number is greater than of equal to 20.

Hence, the smallest possible number is 20.

when a load of 5 pounds is placed on a spring, its length is 6 inches, and when a load of 9 pounds is placed on the spring, its length is 8 inches. what is the average rate of change of the length of the spring as the load varies from 5 pounds to 9 pounds? give units on your answer

Answers

Answer:

Four inches every four and a half pounds

The average rate of change of the length of the spring as the load varies from 5 pounds to 9 pounds is 0.5 inches per pound.

What is average?

It is a measure of how much the function changes per unit, on average, over the given interval.

We have,

5 pounds loaded on a spring:

The length of the spring is 6 inches.

9 pounds loaded on a spring:

The length of the spring is 8 inches.

The average rate of change in the length of the spring as the load varies:

= (8 - 6) / (9 - 5)

= 2 / 4

= 1 / 2

= 0.5 inches per pound

Thus the average rate of change of the length of the spring as the load varies from 5 pounds to 9 pounds is 0.5 inches per pound.

write the following in the form Ax^2+Bx+C=y

Answers

Answer:

13). y = x² + 6x + 8

14). y = 2x² + 8x - 12  

Step-by-step explanation:

13). Vertex form of a parabola is given by,

     y = a(x - h)² + k

     Here (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

     Equation of a parabola with vertex (-3, -1) will be,

     y = a(x + 3)² - 1

     Since, y-intercept of the parabola is y = 8

     In other words, parabola is passing through (0, 8)

     8 = a(0 + 3)² - 1

     8 = 9a - 1

     9a = 9

     a = 1

    Therefore, equation of the parabola will be,

    y = (x + 3)² - 1

    y = x² + 6x + 9 - 1

    y = x² + 6x + 8

14). Equation of a parabola with vertex (-2, -20)

     y = a(x + 2)² - 20

     Since, y-intercept of the parabola is (0, -12),

    -12 = a(0 + 2)² - 20

    -12 + 20 = 4a

     4a = 8

     a = 2

    Therefore, equation of the parabola will be,

     y = 2(x + 2)² - 20

     y = 2(x² + 4x + 4) - 20

     y = 2x² + 8x + 8 - 20

     y = 2x² + 8x - 12

Which transformation from the graph of a function f(x) describes the graph of 5f(x)

Answers

Answer:

Dilation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Main function: f(x)

Resulting function: 5f(x)

Required

Which transformation exists between both functions

The general explanation is that:

When a function f(x) is multiplied by a constant k, the resulting function g(x) is a dilation of f(x).

Mathematically, if the following relationship exists between f(x) and g(x)

g(x) = k.f(x)

Then g(x) is a dilation of f(x) and k is the constant of proportionality or dilation ratio

In this case:

g(x) = 5f(x)

So, the transformation that answers the question is dilation.

a. How much commission will the salesperson earn by selling a couch for $495? Round to the nearest cent.

Answers

Assuming you meant the commission is 12%, the salesperson will make $59.40 from selling the couch. If you take 495 multiplied by the percentage which in this case is 12 then divide that by 100, you get 59.40 you can also simply input 495 multiplied by 12 and then the % symbol and get the same answer.

Find the indicated probability for the number of correct answers. Find the probability that the number x of correct answers is fewer than 4.

Answers

Answer:

0.2 +-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The required probability is 0.8826 that the number x of correct answers is fewer than 4.

What is probability?

Probability is defined as the possibility of an event being equal to the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of outcomes.

There are n equals 6 ​trials, each with a probability of success​ (correct) given by p equals 0.2.

This is a direct application of Binomial distribution with sample size (n) = 6 and P(success) = p = 0.35

Let X be a Binomial random variable.

X ~ Binomial (n = 6, p = 0.35)

We have to determine, P(X < 4)

Using Excel we discover this probability,

⇒ P(X < 4) = P(X ≤ 3) = BINOMDIST (3, 6, 0.35, 1) = 0.8826

⇒ P(X < 4) = 0.8826

Therefore, the required probability is 0.8826
